ossia.remote dumpout address index : wrong order

[matcham]

I'm trying to use this new feature : https://github.com/ossia/libossia/issues/657 (merci Vincent pour la bonne idée, et merci Julien de m'avoir rappelé que ça existe :-)

Looks like index does not always follow instance number.

if the multiple parameters are create by one single ossia.parameter : ossia.parameter joe.{1..3} then an ossia.remote joe.* will output index following the address address: address joe.1 1 address: address joe.2 2 address: address joe.3 3

but if I create "manually" 3 parameters ossia.parameter bob.1 ossia.parameter bob.2 ossia.parameter bob.3

then ossia.remote bob.* will output address: address bob.3 1 address: address bob.2 2 address: address bob.1 3

Maybe I don't understand what this index is supposed to represent.. index != instance ? looks like index order depend of parameter creation order ; is that correct ? So this is can be used only when using this kind of syntax : ossia.parameter joe.{1..3} or maybe when parameters are created inside a poly (= only when you know for sure in which order parameters are created when the patch is opened. )

index != instance ?

right, index is always a number starting at 1, instance is alphanumerical

looks like index order depend of parameter creation order ; is that correct ?

yes, it starts at one and increment each time you add a new node

So this is can be used only when using this kind of syntax : ossia.parameter joe.{1..3}

another use is for poly~ instance dispatch and mc.* patchers

I don't know any other use case, but maybe you can explain what you're trying to do ?
