Dsp network wont compile: // <--Changed to more relevant title :)

[Chazrox]

I really appreciate all the help on this from you guys because Im out of my league at this point.

[HISEnberg]

@Chazrox Yea sorry I couldn't be more helpful, it seems like my initial suspicions were wrong here.

Another thing to try, I notice your main folder is called "HISE Projects". Sometimes a space like that can throw the compiler off (a better name is just HISEProjects, no space). This probably isn't the issue but worth trying.

When you hit that compile to dll button in HISE, there is a bash script that runs which sets up projucer and creates an xcode project, then compiles the dll. It's in DspNetworks/Binaries/batchCompileOSX.sh

For me it looks like this:

#!/bin/bash
PATH="/usr/local/bin:$PATH"
chmod +x "/Users/ernest/Github/HISE/JUCE/Projucer/Projucer.app/Contents/MacOS/Projucer"
cd "`dirname "$0"`"
"/Users/ernest/Github/HISE/JUCE/Projucer/Projucer.app/Contents/MacOS/Projucer" --resave AutogeneratedProject.jucer

set -o pipefail
echo Compiling  DeleteMe ...
xcodebuild -project "Builds/MacOSX/DeleteMe.xcodeproj" -configuration "Release" -jobs "8" | "/Users/ernest/Github/HISE/tools/Projucer/xcbeautify"

But it sounds like whatever issue you are having fails before this key file is ever even generated.

[Chazrox]

@HISEnberg No worries I really appreciate it. Im down to try that. If I just change the name of the folder will that mess up any of my projects in it? Is this also the case for naming conventions in general? Project names and node names?

[Chazrox]

Do I need to set this?

[Chazrox]

update from Claude reading latest crash report:

I dont think its a HISE bug but maybe something here is telling of something else?

[Chazrox]

@HISEnberg Just letting you know, I tried changing the name to my folder and still get the error/crash.

[Chazrox]

@David-Healey In my new hise build, I cant find the setup wizard that lets me extract the sdk's and I noticed in settings "Setup Wizard = 1" . Does that mean its already setup by default?

[HISEnberg]

@Chazrox Yea that won't resolve it. The no-space rule in naming files is somewhat ancient at this point, most of the time the compiler will resolve it.

You also don't need the Custom Node Path set.

The Export or Setup Wizard I believe has been abandoned which is why it's no longer there.

[Chazrox]

@HISEnberg I just found Davids updated video regarding sdk's. Im going to continue trying. Thank you.

***UPDATE:

My test project will compile and export as an FX plugin but still its just not compiling my networks to dll.

[Chazrox]

Is there any difference in creating a node with these two options?

Im trying both to see what works but still same result.

[Chazrox]

I just tried a to fix with Claude and this is its response:

Does that mean im screwed? lol

The new HISE build is working great aside from not being able to compile networks still...Something is really screwed up over here.

@David-Healey @HISEnberg

[Chazrox]

Claude has completely given up on me. lol I've tried everything a few times over. Claude keeps telling me to wait for Christoph to save me .

[Chazrox]

Is this the expected folder structure for having just created a new dsp network file? Is there anything missing here?

[dannytaurus]

@Chazrox Are you using Claude Chat or Claude Code?

I get good results when I use Claude Code in my project repo and also point it to the HISE repo.

I found using Claude Chat, and just pointing it to the docs website, was pretty useless.

[Chazrox]

@dannytaurus I havent tried that yet! Im not sure how to use it honestly. Im gonna watch a video and see whats up. Thanks!

[Chazrox]

Claude told me to quit already but I kept going lol. I really want to fix this. It gave me a "High Signal Report" in hopes that someone here can read it and help because its Claude is literally telling me to go to sleep lmaoo

Here's what it gave me:

---

HISE 4.9.2 on macOS Sequoia 15.2 / Apple Silicon
Crash in compileNetworksToDll, even with empty project + bare core.gain

Stack trace shows crash inside createAllNodesOnce() iterating
TemplateNodeFactory. Recurses 4 levels deep into nested containers,
then NodeContainer::nodeAddedOrRemoved calls getNodeForValueTree
which returns nullptr. Register x21 = 0x0 at crash site, attempting
ldr from null in getNodeForValueTree+108.

The bug is not in user projects — createAllNodesOnce instantiates
HISE's built-in templates and one references a child node not in
the factory. Reproduces 100% with completely empty project.

Built ReleaseWithFaust from develop branch commit 6446c4ab6 with
HISE_INCLUDE_FAUST=1, HISE_INCLUDE_FAUST_JIT=1, HISE_FAUST_USE_LLVM_JIT=1,
USE_BACKEND=1, HISE_INCLUDE_SNEX=1.

Need to know: which preprocessor flag combination makes
TemplateNodeFactory register a node whose child template is missing
from the build?

[Chazrox]

FIXED!!!!!!

@David-Healey @HISEnberg @dannytaurus OMG! A Year of trying and it was a stale template file....I wanna cry. lol

Finally made it to this window:

and compiled dll successfully !
