The new shred features
Subject description: How do they work? |
  |
|
OK, so in the new release we can do this:
| Code: |
spork ~ go() => Shred @ offspring;
|
But there is no mention of ways to use this variable offspring of type Shred, that I can see. How do I stop a sporked shred from running, for example?

like this;
| Code: |
spork ~go() @=> Shred offspring;
<<<offspring.id()>>>;
offspring.exit(); |
I'm not yet sure how the new ones work.

OK, yeah, thanks Kas, cause I need that for my Guitar Motion Sensor software. four channels of over a dozen effects each and two shreds per effect multiplies out to equal too many shreds! Gotta code this one efficiently since I don't know whatever junky notebook some musician (or I) will try to use for the effects.

You know what, that .exit() function isn't working for me. I define my Shred variables like this:
| Code: | Shred potentiometer_adjust[num_stages]; // shred objects for potentiometer adjust function
Shred accelerometer_adjust[num_stages]; // shred objects for accelerometer adjust function
|
and use them like this:
| Code: | if (effect[stage] == 2) {
node[stage] =< reverb_object[stage].input; // unhook downstream
reverb_object[stage].output =<node> wah_object[stage].input; // hook downstream
wah_object[stage].output => node[stage+1]; // hook upstream
potentiometer_adjust[stage].exit (); // remove old shred
accelerometer_adjust[stage].exit (); // remove old shred
// spork new shreds
spork ~ wah_object[stage].potentiometer_adjust () @=> potentiometer_adjust[stage];
spork ~ wah_object[stage].accelerometer_adjust () @=> accelerometer_adjust[stage];
0 => sndbuf[7].pos;
}
if (effect[stage] == 3) {
node[stage] =< wah_object[stage].input; // unhook downstream
wah_object[stage].output =<node> distortion_object[stage].input; // hook downstream
distortion_object[stage].output => node[stage+1]; // hook upstream
potentiometer_adjust[stage].exit (); // remove old shred
accelerometer_adjust[stage].exit (); // remove old shred
// spork new shreds
spork ~ distortion_object[stage].potentiometer_adjust () @=> potentiometer_adjust[stage];
spork ~ distortion_object[stage].accelerometer_adjust () @=> accelerometer_adjust[stage];
0 => sndbuf[8].pos;
}
|
And what I get is more and more shreds, they never exit! What's up with that?

Interestingly, i noticed more about the program that may explain this. The shreds do go away when i move the mouse. These shreds have infinite while loops that are waiting on mouse events. So the shreds are shreduled to exit, but they do not exit until the next mouse movement. I don't think it's a real problem, it's just kind of awkward. Whatever.
