I’m working on developing the template made by Stefan Brunner that lets you « convert » RNBO patches to VST using juce (

https://github.com/Cycling74/rnbo.example.juce

During the development of my solution, I debugged with Max, with a vst~ object in it that allowed me to open my plugin without any problems. The templates now runs how I want it to, builds and run like a charm. The only problem is that the VST that it outputs seems to not respect every rules (?) needed for it to work properly. Let me explain. When I first compiled the code, I tried to open the plugin in Live, didn’t work, opened it in Max and Reaper and it worked, so I chose to develop using Max and focus on that problem later. Everything worked fine, I even linked max to an Xcode Scheme, and it provided a really smooth workflow. Now that I’v finished this phase, I want to fix the bug I’ve had since the start. I’ve tried to debug using pluginVal 

https://github.com/Tracktion/pluginval/tree/develop

https://github.com/steinbergmedia/vst3sdk

), and it doesn’t seem to see any problem.  

Still, the VST doesn’t appear in Ableton Live. Trying to see what is wrong, I went into Reaper to open it. It worked a few times, but without the changes I implemented to the template (and auto. GUI). Then after a few trials, it seems that it is keeping a version of the VST and not changing it (same name, same UI), even when I change the version in my Plugin folder (I tried every re-scan options)… I really don’t know what is happening, and would really appreciate some help.

I'm using the RNBO export function and the VCV rack SDK to translate my RNBO patches into Rack modules. I'm trying to hack a little bit into the system (module.cpp, rnbo_source.cpp and others) in order to be able to control the appearance of the final module directly from the parameters or in/outlets metadata field. 

The issue is that there is no implementation of the "meta" field in the rnbo c++ export. Well, it does exist in the "description.json", but there is no solution implemented to access it easily, meaning that the field doesn't exit in the "rnbo_source.cpp", neither in the "ParameterInfo" struct in "RNBO_Types.h" : 

struct ParameterInfo
	{
		ParameterType type;
		IOType ioType = IOTypeUndefined;
		ParameterValue min = 0.;
		ParameterValue max = 1.;
		ParameterValue initialValue = 0.;
		ParameterValue exponent = 1.;
		int steps = 0; // 0 = continuous, 1 = toggle, 2+ indicates steps in the normalized representation
		bool debug = false;
		bool saveable = false;
		bool transmittable = false;
		bool initialized = false;
		bool visible = false;
		const char **enumValues = nullptr;
		const char *displayName = "";
		const char *unit = "";
		SignalIndex signalIndex = INVALID_INDEX;
	};


As these files are generated by RNBO during the export, I cannot modify them in order to have the informations needed. I don't want my first option to be to parse the .json file... Is there any way that I could get the metadata directly from the RNBO export in a way similar to the ParameterInfo struct ?

 there is mentioned a "value" attribute.  Can anyone share some additional detail on what this attribute is and what it does?

I discovered that it only works if the type is set to "number".  Otherwise it returns a funky compiler error. 

To my knowledge, pattr can handle all the attributes of an object, including attributes of any type.  Not simply number attributes called "value."  So I don't understand what this attribute would be used for.

I am writing a UI object, and I'd like to persist a string between sessions.  Save the string with the patch, and recall the saved string on load.

I think the "savestate" message would be ideal for my purpose.  But I also discovered that "savestate" doesn't work with UI objects.  So I thought maybe persisting the string through pattr using this "Value" attribute might be possible.  But I'm not really understanding what this is or how it works.

Ideally the string would be internal to the object, and so not externally represented as an attribute, but at this point I'm willing to consider anything.

I'm writing some externals in c++ using the min framework. I want to make an external to be used in a Max4Live patch. The external will take a prompt as input and generate a composition as a responce. The composition should be based on the name of the tracks in the live arrangement (this will tell the model which instruments to write for). Next the score for each track will be placed in midi clips on the relevant tracks. 

I cannot find the information about how to interface the LOM directly from an external ?
