If I'm not mistaken, if the requested length is the same it just memsets the table to zero. Otherwise, Free and then Calloc.

Since we are asking the devs, what's 'csound->actanchor.nxtact'? Number of active instrument instances in the next cycle or something like that?

Just a quick query, if one calls ftgen with the same table number time and
time again, does it simply overwrite the previous tables contents, or does
it free up that memory and allocate space for a new table?

That explains the warning message in ftalloc().

Thanks for the offer, Victor. But I don't think I'm there yet regarding
the skill level. For the moment being I'll try to give back to the
community with the online course and the online installer. Thanks to
Steven and the Qt project the work that is needed is going to be more
about adapting what's been already done than anything else. I feel more
comfortable doing that right now than writing or fixing C code.

Thanks again. Cheers.
