Default IPlug2 Issue: ProcessBlock runs before mlayoutFunc

hey there,

it seems that the ProceesBlock function is called before mLayoutFunc causing pointers which are declared in IPLugEffect.h and assigned and attached in mLayoutFunc to be empty, when ProcessBlock gets called, which results in: Exception thrown: read access violation.
this->TextToChange was 0xFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF.

is this a bug, or is IPlug2 supposed to be used differently in this than Iplug1?


to replicate issue:

Code:
//in IplugEffect.h in public: add:

ITextControl *TextToChange; 



//in IplugEffect.cpp add:

//in mLayoutFunc:

TextToChange = new ITextControl(*this, b.GetFromTop(50), "TestText", IText(50));
   pGraphics->AttachControl(TextToChange);


//in ProcessBlock:

TextToChange->SetStr("it works");

I hope you solved it already:-) In any case here is the solution:


IPLUG2:


Quote:
enum ECtrlTags
{
kCtrlTagText,
};
Quote:
pGraphics->AttachControl(TextToChange, kCtrlTagText);
...and finally:
Quote:
if (GetUI()->GetControlWithTag(kCtrlTagText)) // Always check if control is available
{
ITextControl* pITextControl = dynamic_cast<ITextControl*>(GetUI()->GetControlWithTag(kCtrlTagText));
pITextControl->SetStr("test");
}
