I was wondering if someone could shed some light on some csound api methods.

There are two methods to perform a compiled csd, perform() and performKsmps(). the java examples tend to call performKsmps() in a while loop. if I am using my own thread, why call performKsmps() and not perform()?

from the api, is there a way to get the number of samples out of range in a performance? Could I check for this in a csd?

thanks in advance,

Jacques

There might be times when you want to do things between k-cycles,
update channels, tables, etc. If so you should use performKsmps(),
otherwise just run an entire performance in one call with perform().
I'm not sure about the samples out of range. Someone else might be
able to say.
