Flext class header

Macros
#define	FLEXT_HEADER(NEW_CLASS, PARENT_CLASS)
	Plain flext class header.
#define	FLEXT_HEADER_T(NEW_CLASS, PARENT_CLASS)
#define	FLEXT_HEADER_S(NEW_CLASS, PARENT_CLASS, SETUPFUN)
	Flext class header with setup function.
#define	FLEXT_HEADER_TS(NEW_CLASS, PARENT_CLASS, SETUPFUN)

Detailed Description

Note

One (and only one!) of these definitions is compulsory for the class declaration.

It has to be placed somewhere in the class definition (not necessarily in a public section).

Macro Definition Documentation

FLEXT_HEADER

#define FLEXT_HEADER	(		NEW_CLASS,
			PARENT_CLASS
	)

Value:

\
FLEXT_REALHDR(NEW_CLASS, PARENT_CLASS)

Plain flext class header.

Parameters

NEW_CLASS	name of the current C++ class
PARENT_CLASS	name of the base C++ class (e.g. flext_base or flext_dsp)

FLEXT_HEADER_S

#define FLEXT_HEADER_S	(		NEW_CLASS,
			PARENT_CLASS,
			SETUPFUN
	)

Value:

\
FLEXT_REALHDR_S(NEW_CLASS, PARENT_CLASS, SETUPFUN)

Flext class header with setup function.

Parameters

NEW_CLASS	name of the current C++ class
PARENT_CLASS	name of the base C++ class (e.g. flext_base or flext_dsp)
SETUPFUN	setup function, of type "void (*setupfn)(t_class *)"

The setup function is called after class creation. It corresponds to the original PD "[object]_setup" function, apart from the fact that all necessary class initializations have already been taken care of by flext. The setup function can e.g. be used for a message to the console upon first creation of an object.

FLEXT_HEADER_T

#define FLEXT_HEADER_T	(		NEW_CLASS,
			PARENT_CLASS
	)

Value:

\
FLEXT_REALHDR_T(NEW_CLASS, PARENT_CLASS)

FLEXT_HEADER_TS

#define FLEXT_HEADER_TS	(		NEW_CLASS,
			PARENT_CLASS,
			SETUPFUN
	)

Value:

\
FLEXT_REALHDR_TS(NEW_CLASS, PARENT_CLASS, SETUPFUN)
