Rather a lot of Javascript for Max
Please see my post on this topic on the Ableton site!
Impressive work, Tom!
Thanks for sharing.
I thought #include was not possible in Max/MSP javascript? How is it that you have #include statements?
cpp will pre-process any text file.
What do you mean exactly?
I can’t stick #include at the top of my .js file… Where would I specify my includes then?
If you have the folder "tom-swirly-max-javascript," take a look at "Makefile." Swirly’s Javascript files (.js) contain cpp directives to slice and dice the source according to certain configurations he’s established, mostly to create and run a series of test cases for his code. The output is a ".jso" file, which is preprocessed Javascript.
You could also run diff against "js/write_lom.js" and "./write_lom.jso," for example, to get a visceral understanding of what he’s doing.
