Big problems with a little plugin

[Lindon]

@Lindon

Right MAJOR issue then... So I took the snippet from above and loaded it into a new project. It crashed Reaper. I removed every module, it crashed Reaper, I then removed all the code - it crashed Reaper, I then removed all the interface widgets - it crashed Reaper. So there is literally nothing in there any more apart from Content.makeFrontInterface(...

There is something corrupted in the project that the snippet it carrying over...

Here it is an empty project that is crashing Reaper and wont load as an AU...

@Christoph-Hart !!!!! -- where should I be looking???

[d.healey]

@Lindon Have you ran Reaper via a debugger to see which part of the code is causing a crash?

[Lindon]

@d-healey nope - how would I do that?

[Dan Korneff]

@Lindon Just tested. Release and Debug version work properly here.
MacOS 12.0.1
Reaper 6.42

I think something might be up with your build of HISE. I slightly remember a commit that was building bad VST a few weeks ago.

[Lindon]

@Dan-Korneff yeah that might make sense if I hadn't just built 9 new plugins that all work perfectly in Reaper...still they were instruments and this is an effect.

[Dan Korneff]

@Lindon Which HISE commit are you using? I'm on 2cb27b8d9 from Nov 18

Open your project in Xcode.
Product -> Scheme -> Edit Scheme -> Debug -> Executable -> Reaper.
Build for Testing.
Hit the play button to start debugging. it'll open Reaper. Load your plugin and see what happens.

There's a similar thing for VS too.

-- the windows version runs perfectly...

@Lindon well after all that effort -- I downloaded todays build of HISE (Master) and compiled it - and re-compiled my plugin - seems to work as a VST3...now on to check teh AU

[Lindon]

....and the AU works to...

Ok so thanks @Dan-Korneff and @d-healey for your efforts with this.... I will be smarter next time...

[Dan Korneff]

@Lindon Here's a quick video I did on debugging your project. Just in case you need to do it in the future.

@Dan-Korneff nice, thanks mate.
