[Guidolib-devel] problems on Quartz intel?

[Josh P. <jo...@re...>]

Hi all,

I am interested in developing some tools based on the GUIDO lib  
(specifically, a command line tool for converting a gmn file into an  
image file). I was very impressed to see that this is pretty straight  
forward to do with the lib! I compiled the GUIDOEngine framework, and  
have a basic program working, but the output for any file format is  
just a black square.

I also found out that the same thing happens if you try to export an  
image file from the sample GuidoQuartzViewer. I built a native intel  
version, and all that comes out are black squares. BUT - with the PPC  
version that is floating around on the net, export works fine. So it  
seems like this may be an architecture issue. Has anyone else seen  
this before (or know of a solution) before I start digging?

And - here is a little more info on my background / project in case  
anyone is interested. I've been using NoteAbility Pro for a few years  
now, and developed an interface for the SuperCollider sound synthesis  
language for algorithmically generating GUIDO scores. This already  
works pretty well, and I am planning on extending the library so  
SuperCollider can also display choices so a composer can make  
decisions based on a displayed score. If anyone is interested in  
seeing the basic SuperCollider interface, please let me know. I'd be  
more then happy to share some basic examples.

Hope all is well.

Thanks,

Josh

or passively, consciously or unconsciously, he makes choices in this  
regard. He may be conservative or he may subject himself to continual  
renewal; or he may strive for a revolutionary, historical or social  
palingenesis." - Luigi Nono
