Question: Hi, I'm working on an extension that uses a listbox, and I can get it to work for Windows, but won't work on Mac. When I run the php script, it makes the mac .rc_mac_dlg, but i'm stuck on this: hMarkerListWnd = CreateWindowEx(WS_EX_CLIENTEDGE, WC_LISTVIEW, "", WS_CHILD | WS_VISIBLE | WS_TABSTOP | LVS_REPORT | LVS_SHOWSELALWAYS | LVS_SINGLESEL, 0, 0, 1, 1, hw

    "Sorry I didn't finish the question below. Is there a function in swell that I'm missing or is it possble?" Yeah, you can't use CreateWindowEx() on SWELL -- the easiest thing is to create controls in dialog resources and have CreateDialog() deal with it. To create on the fly, do something like this:
    #ifdef _WIN32
  hMarkerListWnd = CreateWindowEx(WS_EX_CLIENTEDGE, WC_LISTVIEW, "", WS_CHILD | WS_VISIBLE | WS_TABSTOP | LVS_REPORT | LVS_SHOWSELALWAYS | LVS_SINGLESEL, 0, 0, 1, 1, hw ...
#else
  SWELL_MakeSetCurParms(1, 1, 0, 0, parent, false, false);
  hMakerListWnd = SWELL_MakeControl("",id_if_you_care,"SysListView32",LVS_REPORT|LVS_SINGLESEL,x,y,w,h,0);
  SWELL_MakeSetCurParms(1, 1, 0, 0, NULL, false, false);

#endif

Question: On builds: How does that work? Does it do multiple passes to get the best compile or some other things?

Question: If a REAPER build takes more than 10 min, how do you test things? You can't write/test/compile quickly, what's the strategy?
Asked by Rodrigo (177.96.146.x) on April 25 2016, 2:47am
Reply on April 25 2016, 2:49pm (edited at April 25 2016, 2:50pm):
    That's for release builds (which rebuild-all, using ICC in release mode, for 4 platforms, OSX/Win, 32 and 64-bit).

    When developing using xcode, for example, you only build the files that change, which is usually close to instant, but even if I rebuild-all in debug mode in xcode, it takes ~30 seconds (VC is quite a bit slower on the same computer).

Question: Re re : Midi clock.(i know, i'm kinda insisting) : And in case of music without tempo changes (like many electronic music), wouldn't it be possible to have Reaper slave-synced to a hardware sequencer through Midi Clock ? It would be so useful.

Question: Re : Midi clock. Thank you, Justin. Any plan to have "proper" (standard) Midi Clock support (Reaper beig able to receive Midi clock from a hardware sequencer/synth) ?

Question: Re : Midi clock. Thank you so much, i wasn't aware about that. However, i have several drop outs, and it seems to have some lag at while starting playback, and that Reaper doesn't display the right tempo (it keeps displaying the default 120bpm while the midi clock was set at 108bpm), so if i record my performance as audio, will it be tagged as 120bpm, or 108

    It won't read tempo from the clock, just uses it to synchronize, you need to manually match the tempos.

Question: "Right click on the play button in the transport to change sync options. " Yes, thank you for the tip. But i see only MTC, no Midi Clock option ? Is Midi Clock support planned ?

Question: so, how do you do to slave sync Reaper to a master hardware seq ? from what i understand it would workm if there is no tempo change ?

    Right, and assuming you have the tempos matched. Right click on the play button in the transport to change sync options.

Question: Hi, Is there any plan to allow Reaper clock to be set as Midi Slave ?

Reply on April 20 2016, 1:34am:
    No, it can slave to midi clock but can't adapt to the rate changes, as it requires tempo to be predictable.
