Re: [sc-users] sync with server

[Josh Parmenter <josh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Routine.run({

c = Condition.new;
... send async command ...
s.sync(c);
... contiue ...
})

Hope that helps.

Hi, 

this maybe is a bizarre question, anyway...

Sometimes asynchronous commands are welcome, sometimes (for me) not.

 Is there a way to force syncing between sclang and scsynth, apart form completion? 

I mean, if you evaluate this:

SynthDef(\some, { etc}).send(server) ;

// sclang wait until server has compiled, then

Synth(\some) ;

Or it's just the way architecture is and that's all?

(That would mean that each time the server is called it blocks the sclang thread until it sends back something like a completion message)

Best
