description::
|
|
A bundle object that allows to add preparation messages for async processes. If this feature is not needed, a list object can be used instead.
|
|
|
|
InstanceMethods::
|
|
|
|
private::prSend
|
|
|
|
method::add
|
|
Add an osc message to the bundle.
|
|
|
|
method::addAll
|
|
Add an array of osc messages to the bundle.
|
|
|
|
method::addPrepare
|
|
Add a preparation osc message, which is sent before the bundle is sent.
|
|
|
|
method::send
|
|
Send the bundle to a server. If preparation messages are given, they are sent, the process waits for their reception abd then sends the bundle.
|
|
|
|
method::schedSend
|
|
Like send, but the sending is synced to a given clock to the next beat.
|
|
|
|
argument::server
|
|
A link::Classes/Server::.
|
|
|
|
argument::clock
|
|
A link::Classes/TempoClock::.
|
|
|
|
argument::quant
|
|
Can be a pair of values: [quant, offset].
|
|
|
|
Examples::
|
|
|
|
code::
|
|
// create a new, empty instance
|
|
a = OSCBundle.new;
|
|
|
|
// a synthdef that needs to be sent to the server, an operation that is asynchronous,
|
|
// i.e. we have to wait until it is finished.
|
|
x = SynthDef("test", { OffsetOut.ar(0, BPF.ar(Impulse.ar(4) * 10, Rand(9000, 1000), 0.1)) });
|
|
// this is why addPrepare is used.
|
|
a.addPrepare(["/d_recv", x.asBytes]);
|
|
// add is used with synchronous operations, like starting synths.
|
|
a.add(["/s_new", "test", -1]);
|
|
|
|
// the bundle has now the synchronous separated from the asynchronous bundles:
|
|
a.messages;
|
|
a.preparationMessages;
|
|
|
|
// this can be simply sent - the bundle takes care of the server client communication
|
|
// like waiting for the synthdef to be loaded. the synth is started when the preparation
|
|
// is finished.
|
|
|
|
s.boot; // boot the server
|
|
a.send(s);
|
|
|
|
s.freeAll; // free all nodes on the server
|
|
|
|
// scheduled sending: the synths are started on the next beat.
|
|
|
|
a.schedSend(s, TempoClock.default, 1);
|
|
a.schedSend(s, TempoClock.default, 1);
|
|
a.schedSend(s, TempoClock.default, 1);
|
|
|
|
s.freeAll; // free all nodes on the server
|
|
|
|
// the bundle can contain several preparation messages and messages at a time.
|
|
// the proparationMessages are sent first and only when they are all completed,
|
|
// the other bundles are sent.
|
|
// the bundle can also be reused, if there is no specific allocated buffers/node ids.
