HISE Compatibility with Windows 11 and Cubase 12

[Casey Kolb]

@Christoph-Hart Will Settings.getCurrentBufferSize() work as a check when the user loads the plugin? I'm thinking we might just add our own overlay so we can keep the main HISE overlay off.

[Christoph Hart]

@Casey-Kolb I think a better way is to add a custom error handler as this might also catch other critical errors (eg. samples not found or the copy protection being invalid).

You can also use this with:

HISE | Docs

(docs.hise.audio)

[Casey Kolb]

@Christoph-Hart Our CUBE OpenGL component overlays everything regardless of order, so we have to go custom for all modals in order to hide the OpenGL first

Just confirming that Settings.getCurrentBufferSize() will return the DAW's buffer size and not just the Standalone buffer size?

[Christoph Hart]

@Casey-Kolb I would add something like

Engine.setErrorCallback(function(message, isCritical)
{
    if(message.length == 0)
    {
        myPanel.set("visible", false);
        return;
    }

    myPanel.set("visible", true);
    myPanel.data.text = message;
    myPanel.repaint();
});

then you can show this however you like - no need to overlay everything.

@Christoph-Hart That looks like a good solution!

[d.healey]

@Christoph-Hart

Engine.setErrorCallback(function(message, isCritical)

This isn't in the API yet is it?

[Christoph Hart]

@d-healey Now it is:

HISE | Docs

(docs.hise.audio)

[d.healey]

@Christoph-Hart Excellent!

[d.healey]

Does Engine.showErrorMessage() trigger the callback too?

[Christoph Hart]

@d-healey sure.

[d.healey]

@Christoph-Hart Not working as expected. The first time there is an error it triggers but won't after that:

[Christoph Hart]

@d-healey have you cleared the error?

[d.healey]

@Christoph-Hart In that snippet I'm not but I did try that inside both the button callback and the error callback.

[d.healey]

Bumpy bump

[Casey Kolb]

@d-healey @Christoph-Hart I haven't managed to get this to work yet even with a simple example. For some reason the error callback isn't being triggered in the compiled plugin or with the simulateErrorEvent function. Am I doing something wrong here?

const var errorHandler = Engine.createErrorHandler();
const var stateLabel = Content.getComponent("critical_Error_State");
const var messageLabel = Content.getComponent("critical_Error_Message");
const var errorModal = Content.getComponent("critical_Error_Modal");

errorModal.showControl(false);

errorHandler.setErrorCallback(function(s, m) {
        Console.print("Error"); // this never prints
	if (s == errorHandler.IllegalBufferSize) {
		showErrorModal("Illegal Buffer Size", "Please change your DAW's buffer size to a multiple of 8 (e.g. 32, 64, 128, 256, 512, 1024, 2048).");
	}
});

inline function showErrorModal(state, message) {
	stateLabel.set("text", state);
	messageLabel.set("text", message);
	errorModal.showControl(true);
}

errorHandler.simulateErrorEvent(errorHandler.IllegalBufferSize);

[d.healey]

@Casey-Kolb Do you have the same problem I had in my snippet?

[Casey Kolb]

@d-healey I'm not using Engine.showErrorMessage so I think it's a slightly different issue. I can't get the setErrorCallback function to trigger with simulateErrorEvent or an actual illegal buffer size in the DAW.

[Casey Kolb]

Bumpy bump!

[Casey Kolb]

@Christoph-Hart Any chance you can take a look at this soon? We’re trying to launch a big update and we really need this error message to work so I don’t get a million support tickets. Thank you

[Christoph Hart]

@Casey-Kolb it‘s fixed now.
