Compiling Faust based ScriptNodes on MacOS:Problem

[AxiomCrux]

@Lindon I can't seem to get the HISE release with faust to build, I put the newest release version of faust into the folders specified and the projucer export to xcode and then when I build I get these two errors:

Undefined symbols:
Linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

also the projucer says my juce path is incorrect

you need to start with HISE develop not HISE release..

@Lindon i noticed that after re-reading your steps. I guess I thought it would still work as the infrastructure for faust seems to be in scriptnode in the release version 4.0.0

i do wonder about compatibility issues and possible dev branch bugs so maybe ill finish off what im doing in 4.0.0 and then compile the dev build with faust after.

i am very excited about the possibilities of bringing some of the cool things ive made in faust/rnbo/gen dsp to be useful for others.

i am also keen on the scriptnode, i got a pretty unique synth in my first test

[Lindon]

@AxiomCrux vgreat - I look forward to seeing what you build.

But first I think I need @Christoph-Hart to take a look at this one when he gets back.

@Lindon Just checked it and it compiles here fine.

So the error message says that the compiler can't find the C++ class FaustDistTestFile generated by the Faust compiler when trying to compile the scriptnode wrapper network FaustDistTest. Can you post the content of the include file found in Binaries/Source/includes.h?

[Christoph Hart]

This is how my include file looks:

// [...]

#pragma clang diagnostic ignored "-Wunused-variable"
#endif

// Include third party header files ----------------

#include "FaustDistTestFile.h" 

// Include compiled network files ------------------

#include "BitRed01.h"
#include "ChorusTest.h"
#include "DirtModule.h"
#include "FaustDistTest.h"
#include "LoHiFilter.h"
#include "PassThru.h"

// [...]

If I comment out #include "FaustDistTestFile.h" , then the compilation fails with the exact message that you posted, so it's definitely failing to find the faust file.

[Lindon]

@Christoph-Hart well yes mine looks very differnt to yours:

/* Autogenerated include file. */
#if (defined (_WIN32) || defined (_WIN64))
#pragma warning( push )
#pragma warning( disable : 4189 4373)
#else
#pragma clang diagnostic push
#pragma clang diagnostic ignored "-Wunused-variable"
#endif

// Include compiled network files ------------------

#include "BitRed01.h"
#include "ChorusTest.h"
#include "DirtModule.h"
#include "FaustDistTest.h"
#include "LoHiFilter.h"
#include "PassThru.h"
#include "Phasertest1.h"
#include "pingpong.h"
#include "StereoDelay.h"
#include "TapeDelay.h"

#if (defined (_WIN32) || defined (_WIN64))
#pragma warning( pop )
#else
#pragma clang diagnostic pop
#endif

[Lindon]

@Lindon and its definitely there:

[Christoph Hart]

@Lindon no idea then, it literally does this:

auto fileList = getFilesFromThirdPartyFolder()

if(fileList.isNotEmpty())
   printComment("Include third party header files ----------------");

for(auto file in fileList)
   printIncludeStatement();

So the question is why doesn't it pick up this file? What if you rename it? Or delete it, as it should be recreated by the faust exporter.

[Lindon]

@Christoph-Hart said in Compiling Faust based ScriptNodes on MacOS:Problem:

getFilesFromThirdPartyFolder()

well I'd suggest the problem is in here:

getFilesFromThirdPartyFolder()

as its returning an empty list...

[Lindon]

If I delete it and run the compile again I get the same problem - and as you say, it rebuilds the .h file...

[Lindon]

if I remove the Faust node and create a new one and add a new file (called FaustTestTwo) I get the same problem , and now FaustTestTwo.h is in the ThirdPartyFolder

[Lindon]

@Lindon however when I delete the file and let it get rejenerated my includes.h file looks like this:

/* Autogenerated include file. */
#if (defined (_WIN32) || defined (_WIN64))
#pragma warning( push )
#pragma warning( disable : 4189 4373)
#else
#pragma clang diagnostic push
#pragma clang diagnostic ignored "-Wunused-variable"
#endif

// Include third party header files ----------------

#include "FaustDistTestFile.h"

// Include compiled network files ------------------

#include "BitRed01.h"
#include "ChorusTest.h"
#include "DirtModule.h"
#include "FaustDistTest.h"
#include "LoHiFilter.h"
#include "PassThru.h"
#include "Phasertest1.h"
#include "pingpong.h"
#include "StereoDelay.h"
#include "TapeDelay.h"

#if (defined (_WIN32) || defined (_WIN64))
#pragma warning( pop )
#else
#pragma clang diagnostic pop
#endif

So this should work now no?

But of course it doesn't....

[Lindon]

@Lindon aaaaaand, now its back to this again:

/* Autogenerated include file. */
#if (defined (_WIN32) || defined (_WIN64))
#pragma warning( push )
#pragma warning( disable : 4189 4373)
#else
#pragma clang diagnostic push
#pragma clang diagnostic ignored "-Wunused-variable"
#endif

// Include compiled network files ------------------

#include "BitRed01.h"
#include "ChorusTest.h"
#include "DirtModule.h"
#include "FaustDistTest.h"
#include "LoHiFilter.h"
#include "PassThru.h"
#include "Phasertest1.h"
#include "pingpong.h"
#include "StereoDelay.h"
#include "TapeDelay.h"

#if (defined (_WIN32) || defined (_WIN64))
#pragma warning( pop )
#else
#pragma clang diagnostic pop
#endif

[Lindon]

@Lindon adding the line to the includes.h file and then running from projuicer gives me no relief:

[DanH]

@Lindon did you try building it from the autogen project etc?

The autogen project?/What do you mean?I ran it from here:

[DanH]

@Lindon I mean build the dynlib from the AutoGenerated Projucer project rather than building it from Hise...

[Lindon]

@DanH isnt that what I just did?

[Lindon]

@Lindon So I copied out every network into a brand new (empty) project - and after each one ran a compile - and they all worked in turn, so its something in my project that's screwing this up but I cant work out what it could be.....
