3rd party Header Files in Hise?

[griffinboy]

When writing a c++ Scriptnode,
You often end up with functions that get reused in various nodes, the common solution is of course to create a header file and use #include

Is there an ideal place I can put header files, such that the compiler will pick up on them?
I've had a hard time working this one out.

• Thanks @Christoph-Hart ; )

@griffinboy
Bump.

Womp womp.

I would also be interested in #including external libraries (such as eigen for matrix maths) for example.
Is this more complex?

@griffinboy Just include them in every file you need. Use include guards to prevent them being included multiple times, that's standard C++ practice:

src/MySpecialFramework.h

#pragma once // this directive tells the compiler to only include this file once

void commonFunction()
{
   exit 0;
}

DspNode1.h

// put the 3rd party header file in the src folder to prevent it from being picked up as "node file" itself
#include "src/MySpecialFramework.h"

void f()
{
    commonFunction();
}

DspNode2.h

// put the 3rd party header file in the src folder to prevent it from being picked up as "node file" itself
#include "src/MySpecialFramework.h"

void f2()
{
    commonFunction();
}

Thank you I've been waiting for clarification this is great!

Just one thing, I couldn't find an src folder by default so I created it in thirdparty nodes. I shall see whether that works

There are many dsp libraries available for use. For example Airwindows...etc.

Would you be able to make a sample project (picked from any dsp library) or a screen video to explain the Third Party stuff to newbies like us? If not, no problem.

Distortion, Saturation would be great.

Haha, distortion: Some of the most complex dsp out there.

This is on the to do list, I plan to release a video and some templates for this stuff, but I am currently tied to this very tiring dsp project which has a short deadline.
Once I am free of it, I shall create the video and release the resources.

If you want it sooner than later I can make a rough guide and put it out there

@griffinboy Much appreciated, thank you so much!

@griffinboy some guides on this kind of stuff would be amazing. I'd love to have a crack at some of this too. When you have the time it would be awesome.
