I've built a very simple VST-plugin wrapper for Csound that worked nicely with Csound 5.12 on both Windows and Mac. Now I tested the same app with 5.13 (installed in August this year). I rebuilt the wrapper, and it still works nicely on Windows, but not on Mac. It crashes on start.  Csound outputs the first few lines about PortMIDI, PortAudio and a warning about some missing jack-stuff, but it never gets to the 0dbfs-line. When I run the same csd-file in terminal or through a frontend, the file runs without problems. The output still includes the warnings about jack, so I assume they're irrelevant. 

There is one difference. The wrapper uses the double version, while the frontends by default use the float version of Csound. Are there any known issues here? Any changes from 5.12 to 5.13 that could cause this on Mac only? Any hints on what I should look for to sort this out? I have to admit that I'm not very comfortable with development on Mac.

I greatly appreciate any suggestions.

Sigurd

You can test this with csound64, which is linked to 64bit csound.
Also you might want to upgrade to 5.14 and try again.
There are no known issues on 5.13 with Csound doubles, however you  
need to make sure that

1) You are linking against CsoundLib64.framework
2) you are defining -DUSE_DOUBLES when building

Is this a plugin, or an application? if you could give us more details  
or point to the source code, we could try to help more.

Thanks, Victor

I will test with csound64 tomorrow (I don't have access to any Mac at home, luckily). Upgrade to 5.14 is not an option right now. 

I do link with CsoundLib64.framework. One strange observation is that when I tried to link with CsoundLib.framework instead, the resulting plugin was still looking for files in the CsoundLib64 framework folder!?

This is a plugin, sort of like a very simple cabbage-like thing, with auto-generated GUI. I haven't distributed the source yet. The critical method should be this one (note that this worked with 5.12, and still works with 5.13 in Windows):

bool 
CSoundInterface::initialize(const std::string& root_path, const std::string& csd, int block_size) {

  running_ = false;

  std::string root = root_path + std::string("/");
  std::string csd_filename = root + csd;

  // Create a debug file for output from CSound
  std::string debug_filename = root + csound_output_file_;
  s_debug_file = fopen(debug_filename.c_str(), "w");

  csound_ = new Csound();
  if (csound_) {
    if (s_debug_file != NULL) {
      csound_->SetMessageCallback(my_callback);
    }
    csound_->PreCompile();
    csound_->SetHostImplementedAudioIO(1, block_size);

    // The char* arguments are not const, but I assume they will not be modified
    // If the assumption is wrong, this is a bad cast
    running_ = (csound_->Compile((char*)"-d", (char*)"-f", (char*)"--expression-opt", (char*)csd_filename.c_str()) == CSOUND_SUCCESS);

    // Create list of parameters
    addExplicitParameters();
    if (s_parameters.empty()) {
      addImplicitParameters();
    }
    initializeParameterValues();
  }

  return running_;
}

Did you say there were portaudio messages? These should not be there  
because you have csound_->SetHostImplementedAudioIO(1, block_size);
Maybe try adding -+rtaudio=null to the command-line options, to  
suppress that.

What files was the plugin trying to look in the CsoundLib64 framework?
Also do you set -DUSE_DOUBLE ?

I'm not sure about Portaudio. I will check again tomorrow. I got three warnings about missing jack libraries:

WARNING: could not open library '/Library/Frameworks/CsoundLib64.framework/Versions/5.2/Resources/Opcodes64/libjacko.dylib' (-1)
WARNING: could not open library '/Library/Frameworks/CsoundLib64.framework/Versions/5.2/Resources/Opcodes64/libjackTransport.dylib' (-1)
WARNING: could not open library '/Library/Frameworks/CsoundLib64.framework/Versions/5.2/Resources/Opcodes64/librtjack.dylib' (-1)

These three warnings appeared in the exact same way when I linked with CsoundLib.framework instead. I find that a bit odd.

I used -DUSE_DOUBLE at least to begin with. Are you sure it's necessary on OSX? In the CsoundLib64.framework the definition of USE_DOUBLE is included with float-version.h. 

I have a few more things to work on tomorrow. So thank you so far.

Sigurd

I wasn't sure if it was, I made that change at some point, but I  
wasn't sure for what version. If it's there, then there is no need.
The jack libs are not loading possibly because of a missing  
dependency. But if you got the same error when linking to  
CsoundLib.framework, the csoundlib is looking for opcodes in the wrong  
place. Maybe OPCODEDIR is set in the system to point to the  
CsoundLib64 framework (which is wrong).

If you can identify which API call is crashing csound, it would help.

Regards

Victor

So far I have assumed that csound_->Compile is the crashing API call since I only get a few lines of output from csound before the crash. Xcode debugging is not one of my strong skills, but I'll see what I can do.

Anyway, I will check up on some of your suggestions tomorrow and see where that brings me.

I must get to bed now. It's Father's day here tomorrow so I have to be happy and smiling from early morning.

Thanks,
Sigurd

I wasn't sure if it was, I made that change at some point, but I wasn't sure for what version. If it's there, then there is no need.
The jack libs are not loading possibly because of a missing dependency. But if you got the same error when linking to CsoundLib.framework, the csoundlib is looking for opcodes in the wrong place. Maybe OPCODEDIR is set in the system to point to the
CsoundLib64 framework (which is wrong).

If you can identify which API call is crashing csound, it would help.

Regards

Victor
