Roadmap to HISE 5

Christoph Hart

@d-healey Is there a single non GPL project on Linux?

Orvillain

Thanks for the fix! I'll check it, but I'm seeing this now:

Is that meant to be a comment, or a jassert or something???

Oh wait, I think I get you now. I need to remove use_ipp..... brb....

Christoph Hart

@Orvillain nope that's expected. If you hit this thing, it means that you have somewhere defined USE_IPP to a value which causes all the weird stuff you're experiencing. Check all preprocessor definitions

Orvillain

@Christoph-Hart Yeppers! I just misread your previous post. Doh.

Compiling now. Will let you know about the crash fix.

BTW - I love the Builder! I don't know how many people are using it, but for doing repeated patterns in the module tree, it is a life saver!

Not sure, but if you remove IPP from Linux you guarantee that fewer developers will make their plugins Linux compatible.

Although I don't use proprietary plugins myself I know a lot of Linux users are crying out for more developers of proprietary plugins to support Linux.

HISE makes it really easy to support Linux so unless there is some good reason to remove IPP I think it's worth keeping.

Nice one, it should be fixed now. I mean the builder docs says that you have to expect crashes but this is in fact a reproducable one :)

Right, yep !! This looks fixed.

If you want another crash to investigate, if you have the hardcoded fx window open at the time you recompile, it will crash. I'm guessing there's some GUI code somewhere that gets a bad pointer.

@Christoph-Hart Meanwhile, I was fired by all three clients because of HISE bugs and secret ScriptNode documentation. sigh

Same... I have one that is crashing some customer hosts and I can't seems to find why. simple stuff, no modulation inside, just scriptnode, faust and third party C++. Hopefully this will be fixed one day, but without a proper investigation chances are very thin...

Don't want to troll the thread that been said! But might worth to speak about that again during the meetup

@ustk Have you tried this:

Ensure that you get meaningful crash reports

Don't want you to try to teach you to suck eggs, but have you gotten a project from the user that reliably shows the crash, and slapped a debugger on the host process to find out what is going on?

ustk

@Christoph-Hart @Orvillain Yeah I did read and pasted here the crash report. Unfortunately I can't reproduce the issue so I can't slap a debugger. Will try more...

Unfortunately when I publish a new version the users need to resync their full library in LogicPro in order to get the plugin to update to the new version, so I can't ask them to do it 10x per day...
This is another issue, as I don't think people have to do this each time they update a single plugin (and one of the customers has more than 1000 plugins...). It's like no matter what you do with the version number, Logic doesn't take it as a new version. But I'm no Logic user so, who knows...

Orvillain

@ustk

If you can't reproduce the issue, checkout what platform they're on, and make sure their CPU supports all of the instruction sets required. If they're on a really really old machine that doesn't support the relevant SSE and AVX instructions that HISE and JUCE are using (no, I don't know what they are!!) then it's entirely possible that the issue isn't a bug.

Also get all the information about the audio interface, sample-rate, buffer size, etc.

Oh, and Logic is a real butthole when it comes to refreshing or clearing the AUCache - a lot of the time I've had to walk people through doing it manually.

Seeing this on Linux when compiling HISE, I don't have USE_IPP in the exporter and it doesn't appear in the makefile.

Still would like IPP restoring on Linux as there is no fallback like on MacOS.

@ustk Thanks for the solidarity. It's not trolling…I think it's a valid reaction, and suspect I'm far from the only one. And it's the kind of thing no one thinks will happen to them…until it does. @Christoph-Hart wrote right on the website's front page not to expect fixes, so it's not like he dropped the ball. But we can still be frustrated about it. When it works, HISE is great. But you know the saying…it's only free if you don't value your time.

Where does it say that?

[bug] It's still not possible to change a sample's RR group. It just sets it to 0.

[Bug] Moving sample to RR group sets it to 0

I just noticed if I select a sample in the mapping editor and click the +- buttons (or enter a number manually) to move it to another RR group, it gets set t...

@Christoph-Hart You're missing a double quote at the end of the error message which is why I'm seeing it.

d.healey

@Christoph-Hart I suggest that HISE_USE_SCRIPT_RECTANGLE_OBJECT=1 should be enabled by default in HISE 5.

Also, seeing these errors when exporting VST3 on Linux (standalone export is fine).

I've readded support for IPP on Linux - https://github.com/christophhart/HISE/pull/754

Edit: Hold off merging this, I have an idea I want to try to make it a little more cross-distro friendly.
