I have a presentation with the software written with OF in 6 hours, and just now I found a runtime error
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::runtime_error'
what(): unable to create udp socket
openFrameworks has exited due to signal 6 (SIGABRT).c
I am sending multiple OSC messages to SuperCollider, sometimes 5,6 per second, depending on how the user interacts with the program.
When I send too many I get the above error message in the run log and then the program quits.
not sure if it has something to do, but oscpack the library used to send/receive osc messages, has some problems with memory allocation that can potentially crash an application. has never really had a problem with that but perhaps it’s what’s happening with your project.
if you want to give it a try, i’ve uploaded a win library with those errors fixed here:
1/ are you on Windows? Windows internal (localhost) networking is really bad, and probably can’t handle so much data.
2/ are you creating a fresh ofxOscSender() every time you need to send a message, or just reausing the old one? much better to reuse the old one.
3/ rebooted lately?
I’m on a mac, using 10.4.11 and yes, each time I start a create a new instance of ofxOscSender.
I’m gonna alter my code so that i just change the address instead of creating new senders each time.
And thanks for the osc lib arturo, but I am programming on a mac. If you could, could you tell me what sort of errors needed to be fixed in the osc lib file?
