I'm trying to work with string channels but I'm getting stuck. I've
attached a full command line version of my problem below, pay particular
attention to my SetValueInChannelStr() function. The Csound code I'm using
is also attached below. Before Istvan left the list he mentioned that I
would have to use csoundGetStrVarMaxLen(cs), can anyone provide any
example code for me, I'm desperate to get this working. Cheers,
Rory.

P.S. The code below does not cause anything to be printed to the screen so
I'm guessing that I am not assigning my string to pvalue correctly?

The 'string' argument does not get passed to csoundGetChannelPtr(), so
csound never gets it.

Sweet. I was just half way through a rather long-winded mail in response 
to your last mail, basically I was confused about the reinterpret_cast 
operator. I will try out your code. Thanks again.

Rory.

Hi Victor, I've just tried your code which as you said works. I did have 
to cast the result of malloc to a char*, maybe this is because we are 
using different compilers? Anyway I then tried it out in a GUI 
application. I basically modified my previous function to look like this:

void SetValueInChannelStr(CSOUND *cs, char *name, AnsiString string){
            char *my_string;
            my_string = (char*)malloc(csoundGetStrVarMaxLen(cs));
            int result;
            result = csoundGetChannelPtr(cs, (MYFLT **)&my_string, name,
            CSOUND_INPUT_CHANNEL | CSOUND_STRING_CHANNEL);
            //change 'hello' to AnsiString string once it works...
            if (!result)strcpy(my_string, "hello");
           }

I have it set up so that SetValueInChannelStr() is called when I press a 
button. The problem is that when I run my test instead of "hello" being 
printed to the screen I get rubbish characters. Any idea why this might 
be happening?

Rory.

Try to create my_string outside your Set... function, passing it
to it as a parameter.  In fact you can do the csoundGetCh... call
outside and then just copy the string in your function.

What the csoundGet.... is doing is linking a channel with the
string location you created.  Anything written into that location
will appear on the channel.

I just tried to call csoundGetCha.. directly from my button function. I 
create and allocate space for my_string in my main class constructor but 
I still only see rubbish characters? My OnButtonClick function looks 
like this

void __fastcall TForm1::OnButtonClick(TObject *Sender)
{
csoundGetChannelPtr(pd->instance, (MYFLT **)&my_string, "menu1",
CSOUND_INPUT_CHANNEL | CSOUND_STRING_CHANNEL);
strcpy(my_string, "hello\n");
}

There must be something being assigned to the channel as the rubbish 
characters only appear once I press my button. If they're was nothing be 
sent to the channel Csound would not be printing anything at all, right?
