I'm trying to set up a pair of externals that will be able to send and

receive messages in the same way send/receive do. The sending object I

have working fine, based on the typedmess function.

I would like the receiving object to be able to "listen" to symbols that

are shared with receive, so that messages sent by e.g. "send foo" are

received both by "receive foo" and my object with proper "foo" argument.

In order to achieve this I am attempting to use the connection_client

My first question is whether this will work at all, or if I have to find

The second question conserns a compiling error in the traverse function.

At the moment the struct of the external looks like this:

typedef struct _receive{ // Data Structure for this

Extensions used by Jitter/Attribute stuff

struct myclient *c_next; // Link pointer for

void *outlet; // Need one for each outlet

The traverse function is more or less a copy and paste of the sample

void *receive_traverse(t_receive *x, t_receive ***addr)

When attempting to build the object I get the following error at the

error: cannot convert 'myclient**' to 't_receive**' in assignment

The error message definitively makes sense, so I am wondering if there

is a typo in the declaration of the traverse function in the SDK:

void *myobject_traverse(t_myobject *x, t_myobject ***ptr);

void *myobject_traverse(t_myobject *x, myclient ***ptr);

another approach to the problem?

    *addr = &x->c_next;
    return (x->c_next);
}

When attempting to build the object I get the following error at the
line starting with *addr:
