Hi

I'm working on my first Mac application that uses the Csound API. So far,
everything is working just fine, but Csound's console output is giving me
headaches. Most of the output appears correctly, but some is just cryptic
"garbage". E.g.:
Csound Command ERROR:	insufficient arguments


I tried implementing a message callback function that passes all arguments
to a printf(), but funnily enough, that makes the output even more jumbled.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Alex

Can you show us your callback?

Hi,
It may have to do with color test for the console. Can you try setting
the flag -+msg_color=false?

Cheers,
Andrés

Well, it's really rather trivial, it was only meant as a test:

void messageCallback(CSOUND *csound, int attr, const char *format, va_list
valist)
{
	printf(format, valist);
}

Like I said, this makes the output even weirder. Here are the last few
lines, for example:

flag defaults: csound -s -otest -b-1073743960 -B-52408343 -m2627803
\364#)insufficient arguments

Note that "Csound Command ERROR" disappeared completely.

Thanks. Unfortunately, that didn't help, either.

The csound executable runs without any problems in the terminal. But that
should mean that both the terminal and the csound framework are fine, right?
So what else can cause this?
Oh, by the way: I'm on a Intel machine with Tiger and Xcode 2.4. Framework
version is 5.07.

Oh, my mistake: I misspelled the flag. As long as I don't use my callback
function, the text is displayed correctly now. But the callback function
still yields weird output. Shouldn't I use *printf, did you use non-standard
formatting specifiers? Eventually, I'd like to use sprintf (or rather a
Cocoa equivalent) to put all csound messages into a string that can be
displayed by my GUI.

You cannot pass the va_list directly to printf().  You must do something
like this instead:

void messageCallback(CSOUND *csound, int attr, const char *format, va_list
valist)
{
   vfprintf(stdout, format, valist);
}

Oh gosh. This is embarrassing. I was using printf() when I should be using
v(f)printf(). So much for my old C skills... Sorry for all the confusion,
everything is great now.
