[sc-users] synth instantiation problem

[Tim Blechmann <tim@xxxxxxxxxx>]

hi all,

i'm trying to instantiate the following class:

UniqueId {
    classvar id_;

    *get {
        var ret;
        if (id_ == nil,
            { id_ = 0 });
        ret = id_;
        id_ = ret + 1;
        ^ret
    }
}

Bug {
    var sd_;

    *new {|server|
        ^super.new.init(server);
    }

    init {|server|
        sd_ = SynthDef(("def" ++ UniqueId.get).asSymbol, {
            Out.ar(0, SinOsc.ar([220, 220.3], 0.1))}
        )
        .send(server);
        Synth.tail(server, sd_.name);
    }
}

like this:

s.boot
b = Bug.new(s)

i can't create the synth, though ... the terminal output is:
