------------------ ChucK VERSIONS log ------------------ 1.5.5.0 (March 2025) ======= (added) ChuMP: ChucK Manager of Packages! v0.0.1 (alpha) INTRODUCING ChuMP, the official ChucK package manager! ChuMP currently exists as a command-line interface tool (`chump`), which can be used to install, update, and manage ChucK components ranging from chugins to ChucK libraries to datesets. ChuMP also includes tools (e.g., Chumpinate) for creating new packages, which the ChucK community is heartily invited to do | Selected available packages at time of release ------------------------------------------ run `chump list` to see a list of pacakges ------------------------------------------ * smuck: a framework for symbolic music notation and playback in ChucK (see below) * FluidSynth: a UGen for loading and rendering FluidSynth soundfonts * Rave: a UGen to load and run RAVE (Realtime Audio Variational autoEncoder) * WarpBuf: a UGen for real-time and high-quality independent time-stretching and pitch shifting of audio files; also supports Ableton .asd files * Hydra: a wrapper around the python configuration framework Hydra * Line: a UGen envelope of arbitrary ramps (ala Max/PD's line~ object) * Patch: a tool for update control values from UGens * PlinkyRev: a stereo reverb UGen; port of the Plinky synth's reverb * Rec: helper functions for recording to audio files. Supports recording from dac, ugens, and arrays of ugens * (many more packages are on the way!) ------------------------------------------- * Chumpinate: two classes (Package & PackageVersion) to help create new packages for distribution using ChuMP ------------------------------------------- | For more information, please visit: --------------------------------- https://chuck.stanford.edu/chump/ --------------------------------- (added) SMucK: Symoblic Music in ChucK! v0.1.0 (alpha) | INTRODUCING SMucK, a framework for writing, processing, and playback of symbolic music in ChucK. | to install (using ChuMP): ----------------------- > `chump install smuck` ----------------------- | to start using from ChucK code: --------------- @import "smuck" --------------- | for tutorials, examples, and documentation: --------------------------------- https://chuck.stanford.edu/smuck/ --------------------------------- (reworked) basic @doc functionality for language-defined classes to add inline CKDoc documentation for class definitions and function defintions. (reworked; now different from 1.5.4.4) @doc now appears *before* the entity to be documented; now @doc can be also used with class variables ---------------------------------------- // add inline documenation (processed at compile-time) @doc "this is a description for the class Foo" class Foo { // add inline documenation (processed at compile-time) @doc "a function in Foo, bar() likes calling his friends" fun void bar() { } // add inline documentation for a class variable @doc "this here is a variable called varFoo" 5 => int varFoo; } // these @doc information will appear wherever CKDoc is generated // or displayed, for example: Foo.help(); ---------------------------------------- (added) the ability to hide variables and functions in ckdoc by adding "(hidden)" in the @doc string, for example: ---------------------------------------- @doc "putting (hidden) anywhere in the doc string hides the next thing" 15 => int varBarHidden; ---------------------------------------- (added) examples/basic/blit4.ck (added) ChAI: PCA reduce function call input dimension check (added) ChAI: SVM predict function call input dimension check (added) KNN nearest neighbor function call input value check (fixed) @import issue that can result in certain entries in import path to be skipped over. (fixed) @import issue resulting from inconsistent casing in filepaths (fixed) an issue with the record-to-WAV-file examples: `rec-auto.ck` and `rec-auto-stereo.ck` where they would output an empty WAV file when trying to record (FYI this was caused by a combination of changes to UGen garbage collection since 1.5.4.2 and neglecting to remove the temporary workaround in these example files) (developer) chugins API now supports querying for the local install path of a chugin, using: QUERY->getinfo(QUERY, CHUGIN_INFO_INSTALL_DIR); NOTE: this requires updated chugin.h header (1.5.4.5 or higher) and the latest chuck host (1.5.4.5 or higher) 1.5.4.5 (March 2025) ======= NOTE: 1.5.4.5 is identical to 1.5.5.0 but without ChuMP 1.5.4.4 (January 2025) ======= (added) basic @doc functionality for language-defined classes to add inline CKDoc documentation for class definitions and function defintions. (added, experimental -- NOTE: the semantics of this was rewored in 1.5.4.5) function to retrive CKDoc descriptions for classes and functions: string CKDoc.describe( Object target ); ---------------------------------------- class Foo { // add inline documenation (processed at compile-time) @doc "this is a description for the class Foo" fun void bar() { // add inline documenation (processed at compile-time) @doc "a function in Foo, bar() likes calling his friends" } } // print class description CKDoc.describe( Foo ); // with an instance, can also get info about instanced functions Foo f; <<< CKDoc.describe( f ) >>>; <<< CKDoc.describe( f.bar ) >>>; ---------------------------------------- (fixed) proper emission of classes by name, e.g., `<<< SinOsc >>>;` (fixed) attempts to assign to a constant right-hand-side variable e.g., `null @=> SinOsc;` now results in a compiler error NOTE: in the above example, SinOsc is a variable of type 'Type' and is created alongside the SinOsc class/type; such Type variables associated with class definitions are automatically marked as constant (fixed) crash due to functions / classes references a local variable defined at file-scope; code emission is now internally re-ordered to compile file-scope code segments -> function definitions -> class definitions (fixed) foreach `auto` variable typing for multi-dimenion array, e.g., -------- // two dim array for( auto x : [[1,2],[3,4]] ) { for( auto y : x ) { // print <<< y >>>; } } -------- ======= (fixed) miniAudicle export and record functionalities; these resulted in empty WAV file (in 1.5.4.2 and 1.5.4.3), due to updates to garbage collection policy for UGens. exporting and recording should now work, once again 1.5.4.3 (December 2024) ======= new ChuGL v0.2.5 (see ChuGL release notes below) ~~~ ChucK 1.5.4.3 ======= (added, at last) class STATIC variable initialization for primitive and Objects types. (Previously, static variables needed to be instantiated and initialized separately.) Now variables of any type can be declared as static variable and they will be automatically initialized on a per-class basis. Example: ---------------------------------------- class Foo { // declare a static int in class Foo 5 => static int THE_NUM; // declare a static SinOsc in class Foo static SinOsc THE_UGEN(440); } // can be accessed as before <<< Foo.THE_NUM, Foo.THE_UGEN.freq() >>>; ---------------------------------------- SEMANTICS for static variables ---------------------------------------- as before, static variable can only be DECLARED: a) within a class definition b) outside of any class function defintion c) at the outer-most class scope (cannot be in nested { }) ----------------------------------------- COMPILE-TIME checks: 1) a statement containing a static variable declaration CANNOT access member data/functions 2) otherwise, a statement can access both static and member data. 3) a statement containing a static variable declaration CANNOT access local (i.e., outside of class def) vars or funcs even in non-public classes ----------------------------------------- RUNTIME checks: 4) static initialization statements are run in immediate mode meaning no time advances; this is enforced at runtime; any time advances, including waiting on events, will result in a runtime exception ----------------------------------------- (added) examples/class/static-init.ck examples/import/import-test-3.ck (added) '/usr/lib/chuck' to @import system search paths on Linux and MacOS. .chug files in system paths will auto-load on start up (.ck files will not auto-load and needs to be @imported in order to be used); also @import will now include this directory when resolving fileanems. (added) "ChucK => Music Programming Language" title to --about (fixed) object instantiation refcount integrity; now correctly accounts for the situation where the object reference count is 0 during constructors (before assignment to a variable) and the constructor performs operations that previously could cause itself to be garbage collected (fixed) now properly emits function calls vs. function values (fixed) class definitions that encounter compiler errors (or are in files that have compiler errors) are now correctly rolled back in the type system; previously it was possible to instantiate partial class definition defined in previously compiled code/file, with undefined outcome ======= ChuGL v0.2.5 Release Notes ======= (added) input functions to get *all* keys held/pressed/released this frame GWindow.keys() GWindow.keysDown() GWindow.keysUp() (added) new RenderPass methods to set the output resolution, msaa sample count,target scene and target camera for rendering garbage collection mechanism for all UGens(added) HUD pass to ChuGL's default rendergraph. Can now easily add 2d HUD overlay to 3D scenes by grucking ggens to GG.hud() (added) examples/basic/hud.ck (fixed) crash caused by ShaderDesc and other internal reference counting logic ======= 1.5.4.2 (November 2024) ======= new ChuGL v0.2.4 (see ChuGL release notes below) ======= (updated) --chugin-path: no longer auto-loads chugins found in the specified paths; instead the specified paths are added to the import system user paths, and the .chug and .ck files within the specified paths can be @imported. (updated) improved internal garbage collection mechanism for all UGens; now UGens are garbage collected and disconnected from all its UGen connections, as soon as it is now longer referenced from code (previously, this was deferred until the end of origin shred the UGen was created on, which poses potentially significant memory build-up if a shred repeatedly instantiated/connected UGens without exiting). Overall, this internal update should result in improved CPU performance and memory behavior in various scenarios. (fixed) long-standing SndBuf issue, especially prevalent on macOS: "System error : Too many open files." this was due a combination of (fixed) memory leak involving string operations (e.g., string + string); internally, string operations now are appropriately handled by the operator overloading mechanism (fixed) < <= > >= operators for strings (fixed) an issue chugin system auto-load and --chugin-probe was skipping over the first element when scanning directories (fixed) vec2/vec3/vec4 implicit cast logic for +=> and -=> operations (previously, this would cause a crash in some cases) (fixed) vec2/vec3/vec4 function call from literal (non-variable) value (e.g., @(1,0).magnitude(); previously this yielded a compiler error) (added) examples/stk/tubebell-algo5.ck (added) vector dot product methods for vec2, vec3, and vec4 float vec2.dot( vec2 rhs ) float vec3.dot( vec3 rhs ) float vec4.dot( vec4 rhs ) (added) vector cross product method for vec3 and vec4 (as 3D shorthand) NOTE: this is the same as vec3*vec3 or vec4*vec4 NOTE: 4D cross product is mathematically undefined; vec4 cross product ignores the `w` components and computes a 3D cross product; `w` is also set to zero in the resulting vec4 vec3 vec3.cross( vec3 rhs ) vec4 vec4.cross( vec4 rhs ) (added) Type.of( vec2 ) function to get the associate Type (added) --auto-load-chugin-path: flag -- this behaves as --chugin-path previously did: chugins in the specified path(s) are auto-loaded; .ck files can be @imported (fixed) --chugin: and --chugin-path: now correctly auto-expand paths (updated) Shred(.parent(), .ancester(), .childMemSize(), .childRegSize()) now will operate with respect to the shred reference rather than always w.r.t. the calling shred (e.g., shred that is running when these functions are called) (added) Shred.pc(), .regSP(), .memSP() -- for debugging, info, amusement ======= ChuGL v0.2.4 Release Notes ======= New Features: - Should now support both X11 and Wayland on Linux - PolygonGeometry: provides (decently) robust/performant triangulation, useful for animating or drawing deformable 2d shapes - WireframeMaterial: renders a mesh as a wireframe - Texture.copy(...): can now copy data between textures - Texture.read(...): read back texture data from GPU --> CPU ~~~ Improvements: - Significantly reduced startup time from loading large OBJ models or building geometry with many vertices (tangent frame calculation has been moved from the CPU --> GPU) - Optimized webcam implementation (now consumes less memory and requires fewer memory transfers) ~~~ New examples - deep/ray_triangle_intersection.ck: 3d ray-triangle intersection testing. Thanks Shenran!! - deep/fish.ck: procedurally animating a fish, showcases PolygonGeometry - deep/webcam_echo.ck: webcam delay effect via texture copying - basic/triangulate.ck: polygon triangulation with PolygonGeometry - basic/texture_read.ck: showcases reading texture data from GPU into chuck ~~~ Bug Fixes: - Crash when using Video textures - Fix race condition in Webcam destructor - GText now supports empty strings, and can properly disconnect from the scenegraph - AssLoader will take model ambient color (Ka) into account ======= 1.5.4.1 (November 2024) ======= (patch release) - (fixed, linux) a crash when the OTF handles an OTF command (add or replace) - (added) support for crawling subdirectories for importing for packages to be managed by the upcoming ChuMP (ChucK Manager of Packages) - (updated) --chugin-probe now prints .ck files in the import search paths NOTE: as of 1.5.4.1 chuck auto-loads ONLY chugins in the system search paths; all other chugins and all chuck files in the import search paths must be @imported in order to be used. 1.5.4.0 (November 2024) ======= \/\/\/\/\/ LICENSE UPDATE: ChucK source code is dual-licensed under the MIT License and the GNU General Public License 2.0 (or any later version).

WebChucK, ChuGL, Chunity, Chunreal respectively have MIT licenses /\/\/\/\/\ ********** new language feature ************ @import system for .ck and .chug files ******************************************** - for language specification and examples regarding @import: *************************************************** https://chuck.stanford.edu/doc/language/import.html *************************************************** - the @import system imports classes and operator overloads from another .ck file, or from a chugin; it is designed to faciliate creating, using, and distributing multi-file programs and libraries - @import SYNTAX: @import "Foo.ck" // import Foo.ck @import "Bar.chug" // import Bar.chug chugin @import { "AAA.ck", "BBB.chug", "CCC" } // multiple imports on one line @import "/Users/ge/chuck/examples/import/foo-user.ck" // absolute path @import "../dir/Blarg.ck" // relative path @import "Foo" // can use implicit filename; @import will search and match for .ck, .chug, and .chug.wasm, in each directory in the chugin/import search paths - @import picks up all (and only) *public* definitions (classes and operator overloads); -- this implies that @import will only add new definitions to the type system, but will NEVER automatically run any code; client code must first instantiate class or use an operator to execute the contents of imported files -- this makes it possible to write unit-test code for public classes in the same file in which it is defined; any code outside of public class/operator definition will NOT be type-checked or run (this code will only scanned for syntax) - @imports are resolved at compile-time, before the rest of the host file is evaluated; this makes it possible for a a host .ck file to @import one or more files and make use of their contents immediately (when it comes to dependency management, this compile-time import mechanism is more powerful than the run-time Machine.add()). - @import can work recursively; can @import files that @import other files - @import has built-in cycle-detection; if an @import cycle is detected, a compiler error will be issued and that compilation will be failed ******************* ChuGL 0.2.3 Release ******************* - Video textures! - Currently supporting MPEG1 Video decoding and playback - Webcam/video camera integration - ChuGL can now run at a fixed framerate across all machines/monitors - `GG.fps(int fps)` to set the target framerate (lower values improve chuck's audio performance) - defaults to 60fps - Added skybox support to GScene and environment lighting to PhongMaterial - New Examples - basic/skybox.ck - basic/webcam.ck - basic/video.ck - Fix memory leak on creating new Shaders - (updated behavior) the one-public-class-per-file restriction has been lifted; i.e., it is now possible to define more than one public class in a single .ck file; this update is intended to give programmers and library creators more flexibility in organizing their public class definiition - (updated behavior) .ck files found in chugin/import search paths (e.g., ~/.chuck/lib) NO LONGER automatically loads; instead these now must be explicitly @imported to be used (FYI just the file name will suffice, assuming there are no filename conflicts elsewhere in the import paths) ******************* - (added) member function in Object to get the instantiated type of an object, regardless of the apparent type Type Object.typeOfInstance() Get the instanced type of this object. - (fixed) specific internal UGen connection error now handled without exiting - (fixed, windows) single letter filenames without extensions (e.g., "A") now are distinguished from windows drive letters (e.g., "A:\") - (fixed) Type.of() now reports more specific array type (e.g., `string[]`) instead ofgeneric `@array` - (fixed) type system [user] namespace now instantiated correctly at initialization; previously [global] was used until a clearVM was performed -- this caused incorrect behavior with certain functionality, including a crash in Type.children(); relatedly a long-standing bug was fixed in the type system scope::lookup mechanism that added NULL entries during lookup - (fixed) modulo `%` by zero (int or float) now throws an exception; previously this would either produce an incorrect result or cause a crash - (updated) .sort() a string array will now sort alphabetically (instead of by Object refs) - (updated, internal) dynamic array types are now cached and reused, preventing potential memory build-up across compilations - (updated) chugin probe no longer recursively crawl directories - (updated) variable dependency check now treats sporked functions same as function calls; unfulfilled dependencies will result in a compiler error; previously, correctness in this regard was left to the programmer but could cause a crash. this update is more stringent than is always necessary (due to spork being parallel and the timing behavior, the dependency sometimes are resolved in actuality. however, ChucK team deems potentially over-aggressive dependency checking for sporked functions is preferrable to unexpected and hard-to-debug crashes. ============ For example: ============ ``` // spork a function (that depends on foo) spork ~ printArray(); // initialize foo 5 => int foo; // function that needs foo fun void printArray() { // need 'foo' initialized here if( foo == 5 ) <<< "success" >>>; } // give the sporked shred a chance to run me.yield(); ``` =============== compiler error: =============== error: sporking 'printArray()' at this point potentially skips initialization of a needed variable: [9] spork ~ printArray(); ^ error: ...(note: this skipped variable initialization is needed by 'fun void printArray()') [12] 5 => int foo; ^ error: ...(note: this is where the variable is used within 'fun void printArray()' or its subsidiaries) [18] if( foo == 5 ) <<< "success" >>>; ^ ...(hint: try calling 'printArray()' after the variable initialization) ============== 1.5.3.2 (October 2024) ======= *** ChuGL maintanance patch *** - (updated) backend WebGPU version to wgpu-22.1.0.5 - (added) OpenGL fallback on machines where modern graphics APIs (vulkan, metal, direct3d) are not supported - (fixed) shreds can now exit a GG.nextFrame() loop without hanging the window - (added) GG.unregisterShred() to manually unregister a graphics shred - (added) new examples - deep/particles.ck : musical partical system - deep/sprite_animation.ck : sprite animation via sprite sheets - (fixed) race condition on window resize ******************************* - (added) MidiFileIn.bpm() "Same as beatsPerMinute()." - (added) MidiFileIn.ticksPerQuarter(); "Get the ticks per quarter (TPQ) value from the MIDI file header." - (added) MidiFileIn.tpq(); "Same as ticksPerQuarter()." - (fixed) documentation for MidiMsg.when: "Duration since the last MidiMsg (only valid for MidiFileIn)." - (fixed, windows) SndBuf issue when compiled with UNICODE (FYI SndBuf is still ANSI, but this averts an error due to char width mismatch) - (changed, developer) chuck global manager getGlobalUGenSamples() now handles multi-channel implications for Chunity support for stereo - (added) new examples (FM Synthesis) examples/stk/jacobass-algo1.ck (such groove, much Algorithm 1) examples/stk/nylon-guitar-algo1.ck (updated/renamed from honkeytonk-algo3.ck) 1.5.3.1 (October 2024) ======= *** ChuGL maintanance patch *** - (fixed) crash caused by calling UI functions before calling GG.nextFrame(); now prints a warning with a hint to call GG.nextFrame() - (fixed) CPU and memory spikes when minimizing a ChuGL window - (fixed) crash caused by immediately disconnecting GGen after --> ******************************* - (fixed) ADSR constructors now work correctly - (fixed) compiler now reports line numbers and caret position correctly after a multi-line string literal 1.5.3.0 (September 2024) ======= - (major update) ****** ChuGL.chug v0.2.0 (alpha) ****** * complete under-the-hood engine rewrite * now uses WebGPU instead of OpenGL as the core graphic library * some minor API changes, see: https://chuck.stanford.edu/chugl/api/ * new and updated examples, see: https://chuck.stanford.edu/chugl/examples/ * for more information, visit: https://chuck.stanford.edu/chugl/ ********************************************* - (added, macOS and Linux) --chugin: and --chugin-path: flags now expands '~' in filepath - (developer) fixed QUERY->getinfo(); previously the function pointer was NULL and would caused a crash if called - (developer) updated set/getParam() key names: was: CHUCK_PARAM_USER_CHUGINS now: CHUCK_PARAM_CHUGIN_LIST_USER was: CHUCK_PARAM_USER_CHUGIN_DIRECTORIES now: CHUCK_PARAM_CHUGIN_LIST_USER_DIR 1.5.2.5 (July 2024) ======= - (updated) chugin API version from 10.1 to 10.2 - (added) chugin API for callback on shutdown - (added) chugin API for setting array elements (thanks azaday) - (added) overloaded constructors (more to come) ================== Envelope( dur durationToTarget ) Construct an Envelope with duration to reach target (assumed to be 1.0);

Envelope( float durationToTarget, float target ) Construct an Envelope with duration (in seconds) to reach target; FYI this does not start the Envelope until .keyOn() is called. ADSR( dur attack, dur decay, float sustain, dur release ) Construct an ADSR with attack, decay, sustain, and release values.

Croft" ); QUERY->setinfo( QUERY, CHUGIN_INFO_DESCRIPTION, "what does it do?" ); QUERY->setinfo( QUERY, CHUGIN_INFO_URL, "https://foo.com/FooBar" ); QUERY->setinfo( QUERY, CHUGIN_INFO_EMAIL, "ana@foo.com" ); } ``` - (updated) revert chugin/host compatibility policy chugin major version must == host major version chugin minor version must <= host minor version (previously in 1.5.2.0) chugin AND host API version must match 1.5.2.0 (November 2023) "Better Late Than Never...constructors" ======= - (added) class constructors - (added) overloadable class constructors definitions ============ constructors can be invoked when declaring a variable or with `new`: ``` // connecting UGens, with construtors SinOsc foo(440) => Gain g(.5) => dac; // `new` and assignment new TriOsc(440,pi/2) @=> Osc @ oscillator; // can combine constructors with arrays string arr("foo")[10]; ``` ============ constructors can be defined and overloaded in class definitions: ``` class Foo { // a member variable 1 => int num; // constructor "default" fun @construct() { 2 => num; } // another constructor fun @construct( int x ) { x => num; } // yet another constructor fun @construct( int x, int y ) { x*y => num; } // alternate way of define a constructor, using the class name fun Foo( int x, int y, int z ) { x*y*z => num; } // destructor fun @destruct() { <<< "bye:", this.num >>>; } } // constructor "default" Foo f1(); // another constructor Foo f2(15); // yet another constructor new Foo(8,9) @=> Foo @ f3; // yet another constructor new Foo(10,11,12) @=> Foo @ f4; // print <<< f1.num, f2.num, f3.num, f4.num >>>; ``` - (added) examples/class/constructors.ck - (added) examples/class/destructor.ck - (added) CKDoc and .help() support for constructors - (added) overloaded functions can now have different return types; for example: ``` // foo() overload 1 returns float fun float foo( float b ) { return b; } // foo() overload 2 returns int fun int foo( int a ) { return a; } ``` - (fixed) Type.of("int[][]").isArray() now correctly returns true - (fixed) overzealous dependency validation for member variable usage from other classes - (fixed) overzealous dependency validation for file-level variable usage from functions - (fixed) disambiguating overloaded functions to choose the "closest" match by function call argument type inheritance "distance" to function argument type - (added) Shred.parent() and Shred.ancestor() - (added) compiler error for ambiguous function calls when there is no "closest" match - (fixed) array popFront() crash on Object-based arrays - (updated) ChucK API doucmentation for constructors - (added) overloaded constructors added (more to come) ================== Gain( float gain ); Construct a Gain with default value. SndBuf( string path ); Construct a SndBuf with the 'path' to a sound file to read. SndBuf( string path, float rate ); Construct a SndBuf with the 'path' to a sound file to read, and a default playback 'rate' (1.0 is normal rate) SndBuf( string path, float rate, int pos ); Construct a SndBuf with the 'path' to a sound file to read, a default playback 'rate' (1.0 is normal rate), and starting at sample position 'pos' Step( float value ); Construct a Step with a default value. string( string str ); Construct a string as a copy of another string. Osc( float freq ); Construct a Osc at specified frequency. Osc( float freq, float phase ); Construct an Osc at specified frequency and phase. (similarly for SinOsc, TriOsc, SqrOsc, SawOsc, PulseOsc, Phasor) ================== chugins API update ================== - (updated) chugin API version updated to 10.1 -- complete decoupling of chugins interface and chuck core implementation details -- new chugins runtime API functions to provide access to chuck core operations that is safe across the shared/dynamic library boudaries between chugins and a chuck host (see Chuck_DL_Api in chuck_dl.h for details) - (updated) all chugins can now include a single header `chugin.h` with no additional header dependencies [see: https://github.com/ccrma/cheaders/tree/main/include] FYI: this single-header `chugin.h` is generated from a minimal set of chuck core header files: chuck_def.h chuck_symbol.h chuck_absyn.h and chuck_dl.h - (updated) it is highly recommended that all chugins update to using chugin.h; it is still possible to include chuck headers directly (either chuck_dl.h or chuck.h), but must #define __CHUCK_CHUGIN__ macro (if using chugin.h, this macro is always defined at the top of file) - (updated) chugin AND host API version must now match (previously only the major version must match) - (added) chugins runtime API support for creating arrays from chugins - (added) chugins support for overloading constructors 1.5.1.8 (October 2023) "Halloween Release" ======= (note) memory management is ghoulishly frightful! - (fixed) an issue with memory management / reference counting across overloaded operations that return Object - (fixed) an issue with reference count cleanup on recursive functions that return Objects - (fixed) an issue with reference count cleanup on 'new' operator, e.g., (new Foo).f(); - (updated) reduced memory management dependency between language-defined objects and their "parent" shreds - (updated) --color:ON and --color now will always output ANSI color codes, regardless of TTY status; (FYI --color:AUTO is unchanged and is the same as default, i.e., enable color terminal if TTY detected; disable otherwise - (added, developer) chugins API float array access 1.5.1.7 (October 2023) "vec2" ======= - (added) new type 'vec2' 2D vector type for 2D animation (ChuGL) as well as texture mapping UV or ST coordinates; access fields with .x/.y OR .u/.v OR .s/.t - (added) new examples/vector/vec2.ck - (reworked) memory management across function calls that return Object types; now correctly tracks all instances within a statement and balances reference counts; previously there was a chance that object refcount were not correctly released, causing incorrect behavior including memory leaks. "dangling object references tracking and cleanup" examples include (assumption: foo() returns an Object): `foo().bar;` or `foo(), foo()` (multi-expression stmt) or `while( foo().bar ) { ... }` (loop stmt) and many more. - (fixed) incorrect reference count for certain usages of 'null' where the expression was interpreted incorrectly as a function call, e.g., obj == null 1.5.1.6 (October 2023) patch release ======= - (fixed) a serious issue accessing vec3/vec4 fields (.x, .y, .z. .w) where the operand stack was incorrectly cleaned, which could lead to stack overflow. This issue has been addressed. ======= NOTE: 1.5.1.5 is the alpha-release / soft launch of ChuGL, a unified audiovisual programming framework built into the ChucK programming language. It offers real-time, unified audio synthesis and 3D/2D graphics programming in a single strongly-timed language. ------ https://chuck.stanford.edu/chugl/ ======= 1.5.1.5 (October 2023) "operator overloading + chugins API 9.0" ======= - (added) operator overloading is here! Most operator can now be overloaded, within their respective existing forms in the language (e.g., binary operators such as '+' and '=>' can be overloaded as binary operators, but not as unary operators). Similar to class definitions, operator overloads are local in scope to the file context, unless declared with 'public'. operator overloading marked as 'public' will persists until 1) the VM stops or 2) the VM is cleared/reset. //----------------------------------------------------------- // the general format for overload an operator is as follows: //----------------------------------------------------------- // let's say we define a custom class... public class Foo { int num; } // PUBLIC operator overloading (transcends contexts and files; // will persist until stop VM or clear VM. NOTE the use of 'public' // instead of 'fun' (fun for all!) public Foo @operator =^( Foo lhs, Foo rhs ) { /* do stuff for Foo =^ Foo */ return rhs; } // LOCAL binary operator overload for '=>' (local to this context) fun Foo @operator =>( Foo lhs, Foo rhs ) { /* do stuff for Foo => Foo */ return rhs; } // define binary operator overload for '+' fun Foo @operator +( Foo lhs, Foo rhs ) { Foo retval; lhs.num + rhs.num => retval.num; return retval; } // define binary operator overload for '*' fun Foo @operator *( Foo lhs, Foo rhs ) { Foo retval; lhs.num * rhs.num => retval.num; return retval; } // define unary operator overload for '!' fun int @operator !( Foo foo ) { return !foo.num; } // define postfix operator overload for '++' fun Foo @operator ( Foo foo ) ++ { foo.num++; return foo; } //----------------------------------------------------------- // using the new overloaded operators //----------------------------------------------------------- // create 2 Foos Foo a, b; 1 => a.num; 2 => b.num; // operator in action (follows default ck operator precedence) a + b * b + a @=> Foo c; // post ++ on c c++; // should print 7 <<< c.num >>>; //----------------------------------------------------------- - (added) new examples showing basic operator overloading usage examples/oper/overload_overview.ck examples/oper/overload_pre_post.ck examples/oper/overload_public.ck examples/oper/overload_gru.ck - (added) the "gruck operator" --> (graphical chuck operator) as part of ChuGL (ChucK Graphics Library), which will be part of the ChucK language - (added) Machine function to on-the-fly control operator overloading stack static void resetOperators(); Reset operator overloading state to default startup state; removes all public @operator overloads; use with care. - (added) new Machine function for getting number of shreds currently in VM static int numShreds(); Get the number of shreds currently in the VM. - (added) improved exception reporting and stack-overflow detection and handling. Overall, these change improve system robustness and runtime information. - (added) two new (and somewhat arcane) Shred methods to support "extreme shredding" use cases: ---- int childMemSize( int sizeInBytes ); Set size hint of per-shred call stack ("mem") for children shreds subsequently sporked from the calling shred (NOTE this size hint does not affect the calling shred--only its descendants); if sizeInBytes <= 0, the size hint is set to the VM default. (FYI This is an arcane functionality that most programmers never need to worry about. Advanced usage: set size hint to small values (e.g., 1K) to support A LOT (e.g., >10000) of simultaneous shreds; set size hint to large values (e.g., >65K) to spork functions with extremely deep recursion, or to support A LOT (>10000) of declared local variables. Use with care.) int childMemSize(); Get the memory stack size hint (in bytes) for shreds sporked from this one. int childRegSize( int sizeInBytes ); Set size hint of per-shred operand stack ("reg") for children shreds subsequently sporked from the calling shred (NOTE this size hint does not affect the calling shred--only its descendants); if sizeInBytes <= 0, the size hint is set to the VM default. (FYI This is an arcane functionality that most programmers never need to worry about. Advanced usage: set size hint to small values (e.g., 256 bytes) to support A LOT (>10000) of simultaneous shreds; set size hint to large values (e.g., >20K) to spork functions with extremely lengthy (>10000) statements, including array initializer lists. Use with care.) int childRegSize(); Get the operand stack size hint (in bytes) for shreds sporked from this one. ---- - (added) FileIO.open() now takes "special:auto" as the filename (output only) to write to a new file with auto-generated filename in the current directory (based on the current system time, precise to second;NOTE files created into way at the same system time will have the same auto-generated filename and may conflict or fail to open). The "auto" prefix and extension can be set and retrieved using the following new functions to FileIO: --- string autoExtension(); Get auto extension for "special:auto" filename generation (applicable to file writing only). string autoPrefix(); Get auto prefix for "special:auto" filename generation (applicable to file writing only). void autoPrefixExtension( string prefix, string extension ); Set auto prefix and extension for "special:auto" filename generation (applicable to file writing only). --- - (fixed) float *=> vec4 now works as intended (instead of producing a a compilation error) - (fixed) on Windows and --verbose level SYSTEM or higher, when a chugin fails to load, instead of displaying a cryptic error code (e.g., "reason: 1920"), the error code is translating into an error message and displayed (e.g., "reason: The file cannot be accessed by the system.") (azaday) - (fixed) on certain systems, program ending with a single-line // comment could crash; affects miniAudicle, WebChucK, Machine.eval() containing code that ending with a trailing comment - (fixed) on-the-fly programming (OTF) system was incorrectly cleaning up file descriptors and leading to instability - (updated) ConsoleInput.prompt( text ) now no longer prints an extra space (" ") after prompt text - (updated) chugins headers version incremented to 9.0 - (added; chugins development) overhauled dynamic linking API to access chuck host-side operations; this greatly expands chugins capabilities but will unfortunately require API changes that will break chugin builds that uses the existing API. (check out chuck_dl.h: `namespace Chuck_DL_Api`) - (added; chugins development) ability to overload operators from chugin query functions in C++: // add binary operator overload; args included f_add_op_overload_binary add_op_overload_binary; // add unary (prefix) operator overload; arg included f_add_op_overload_prefix add_op_overload_prefix; // add unary (postfix) operator overload; arg included f_add_op_overload_postfix add_op_overload_postfix; - (added; chugins development) capability to invoke chuck language-side member functions (in chuck) from chugins (in C++) // invoke Object member function (defined either in chuck or c++) // NOTE this will call the member function in IMMEDIATE MODE, // marking it as a time-critical function when called in this // manner; any time/event operations therein will throw an exception Chuck_DL_Return API->vm->invoke_mfun_immediate_mode( Chuck_Object * obj, t_CKUINT func_vt_offset, Chuck_VM * vm, Chuck_VM_Shred * shred, Chuck_DL_Arg * ARGS, t_CKUINT numArgs ); - (added; chugins development) new API->type API for C++/chugins to lookup types in the type system, virtual function offsets (useful for API->vm->invoke_mfun_immediate_mode() above) - (added and updated; chugins development) across all existing chugins DL API and many additions; the chugins runtime API 9.0 ============================= // C++ chugins runtime API for VM access (access from chugins using API->vm->...) // get sample rate | 1.5.1.4 t_CKUINT srate( Chuck_VM * vm );

Over the dozen releases since chuck-1.5.0.0, this release is strongly-timed for students and instructors coming back to school in Fall 2023! (One of our ongoing priorities is to make the language + tools better for teaching, research, and of course music making.) - (updated) Machine.add()/replace()/remove()/status() now re-implemented internally for both performance and greater compatibility (now can be used with no dependencies on OTF system, make it possible to call these from systems like WebChucK). - (added) new and updated Machine functions --------- ** new ** static int removeLastShred(); Remove the most recently added shred in the VM (could be the shred calling this function); returns the ID of the removed shred. ** new ** static int resetShredID(); Reset shred IDs to 1 + the highest current shred ID in the VM; can be used as shred management to keep shred IDs low, after a lot of sporks. Returns what the next shred ID would be. ** new ** static void removeAllShreds(); Remove all shreds in the VM (including the shred calling this function). ** new ** static void clearVM(); Reset the type system, removing all user-defined types and all global variables; removes all shreds in the VM (including the shred calling this function). Use with care. ** new ** static void printStatus(); Print (to terminal or console) the current status of the VM. ** new ** static void printTimeCheck(); Print (to terminal or console) the current time information in the VM. ------------- ** updated ** static int add( string path ); Compile and spork a new shred from file at 'path' into the VM; returns the new shred ID. It is possible to include arguments with the file being added, e.g., `Machine.add( "foo.ck:bar:3:5.0" )`. ** updated ** static int replace( int id, string path ); Replace shred with new shred from file. Returns new shred ID, or 0 on error. It is possible to include arguments, e.g., `Machine.replace( outID, "foo.ck:bar:3:5.0" )`. ** updated ** static int remove( int id ); Remove shred from VM by shred ID (returned by Machine.add). ** updated ** static int status(); Print the current status of the VM; legacy version of printStatus(). ------------- - (updated) Machine.add( filepath ) no longer introduces a potential real-time audio interruption on macOS ** for all filepath that does not contain ~ **; currently, path resolution for ~ or ~[username] in macOS consistently causes audio clicks, likely due to implementation of underlying system function (e.g., wordexp()) to resolve ~ (hypothesis: wordexp() function performs IO-blocking) - (added) function to expand platform specific file path static string expandPath( string path ); Expand platform-specific filepath to an absolute path, which is returned. On macOS and Linux expandPath() will attempt to resolve `~` or `~[username]`; on Windows expandPath() will attempt to resolve %USERNAME%. (Known issue: (macOS) expandPath currently introduced an audio click; it recommended to call expandPath() at the beginning; e.g., expanding path ahead of time could avoid a click instead of calling Machine.add() on a filepath with `~`.) - (added) a new (3rd) string.replace() function void replace( string from, string to ); Replace all instances of 'from' in the string with 'to'. (for reference the existing string.replace() function) void replace( int position, string str ); Replace characters from 'position' with contents of 'str'. void replace( int position, int length, string str ); Replace 'length' characters from 'position' with contents of 'str'. - (added) examples/string/replace.ck - (updated) move real-time audio system warnings to log level "WARN"; this should result in less clutter printed, in particular on Linux/ALSA. - (updated) CKDoc now prints class functions before variables - (added, chugin development) new backend chugin <=> chuck host API functions for array.size(), array.get_idx(), array.get_key() (@nshaheed) - (fixed) various documentation misspellings (thanks @barak) - (fixed) variable look-up priorities when multiple variables of the same name are declared in various situations in the same file (shadowing); this resolves issues within a subclass incorrectly accessing variables of the same name (declared as local variable vs. member in a parent class vs. global-scope variables), depending on where it's accessed from. --- updated convention for value lookup priority (in case of shadowing) 1) first look in the same scope 2) if not found, and if inside a class def, look up-scope within class (but no further) 3) if not found, and if inside a class def, look in parent (for inherited value) 4) if still not found, look all the way up to global scope --- for example: chuck/src/test/01-Basic/194-value-lookup-order.ck --- - (fixed) using => to connect from/to empty UGen array declaration no longer results in a crash; instead there is now a compiler error: ``` a.ck:8:17: error: cannot connect '=>' to empty array '[ ]' declaration... [8] [foo] => SinOsc bars[]; ^ a.ck: ...(hint: declare 'bars' as an non-empty array) a.ck: ...(or if assignment was the intent, use '@=>' instead) ``` - (fixed) duplicate function declaration no longer causes a crash after reporting the error ``` // example of duplicate function declarations fun void bar() { } fun void bar() { } ``` - (fixed) assigning to constants such as `pi`, `second`, or `Math.PI` now results in a compiler error; previously the outcome was undefined and in certain case could cause a crash. - (fixed) concatenating a function reference with a string now produces a compiler error; previously this would lead to a runtime crash. ``` a.ck:17:9: error: cannot perform '+' on string and '[function]' [17] <<< " " + f.getFoo >>>; ^ a.ck:17:13: error: ...(hint: to call the function, add '()' and any arguments) [17] <<< " " + f.getFoo >>>; ^ ``` - (fixed) an issue appending arrays to arrays for non-integer types ``` float foo[0][0]; float bar[0]; foo << bar; ``` - (fixed) an issue with OscOut on Windows, which can crash on object cleanup due to incorrect windows-specific socket closing - (fixed; reworked) OSC dispatch for multiple OscIn clients listening on the same OSC address; the crash has bee resolved, and the OSC incoming server message dispatch has been reworked - (re-added) 'Chubgraph' has been "re-deprecated", which actually means older code that use 'Chubgraph' instead of 'Chugraph" will now work again, with the deprecation warning (previously `Chubgraph` would result in a compiler error): `deprecated: 'Chubgraph' --> use: 'Chugraph' instead` - (updated) minor improvements in compiler error reporting; more accurate position accuracy for binary operators, including =>, @=>, and =^ - (updated) log level 3 (SEVERE) has been renamed to (HERALD) - (updated) improved stability on ctrl-c shutdown for real-time audio and HID management - (added) examples/effects/autotune.ck --- - (added) WebChucK support for Machine.add()/replace()/remove()/removeAll() - (added) WebChucK IDE now supports the ability to upload .ck files for Machine (@terryzfeng) https://chuck.stanford.edu/ide/ - (updated) for Chugin developers, the `chuginate` tool has been modernized (spencer and ge) -- 0) chuginate updated from using python2 to python3; 1) in addition to a boilerplate C++ project for a chugin, chuginate now also generates a boilerplate NAME-test.ck ChucK program; 2) more informative comments in the boilerplate C++ code; 3) updated makefiles for all platforms. 1.5.1.2 (August 2023) ======= - (updated) the long-time and often cryptic "cannot bind to port: 8888" message has been reworked: 1) an explanation has been added to the possible cause (e.g., another chuck VM is running and currently has the port open) and implication (this chuck VM will not receive OTF commands over the network); 2) the printing of this message has been moved by default to log level 2 (SYSTEM) with further information on log level 5 (INFO) UNLESS the '--loop` flag is present, which signals intention to use the VM as an OTF command listener (and the warning is more likely to be relevant information). This should hopefully reduce confusion, as well as improve automations that examine the output of chuck. (thanks to @barak for elucidating the issue!) - (added) --cmd-listener:{on|off} enables or disables listening for network OTF (on-the-fly programming) command messages (e.g., add, replace, remove, etc.). The default is ON; setting to OFF will prevent chuck VM from attempting to open network server listener. (NOTE: this option does NOT affect in-language networking, e.g., with Open Sound Control.) 1.5.1.1 (August 2023) ======= (note) this patch release fixes a number of issues related to recently added language features; it also adds some "syntactic sugar" in the form of allowing trailing commas in array initializer lists, as well as a set of range() functions for generating arrays of ranges of value. - (added) trailing commas in array initializer lists are now permitted ``` // an array initializer list (aka array literal), as usual [1,2,3] @=> int foo[]; // now also permitted: trailing comma after last element [1,2,3,] @=> int bar[]; ``` - (added) Std functions for generating arrays containing a range of values (nshaheed) static int[] Std.range( int stop ); Return array containing the range [0,stop). static int[] Std.range( int start, int stop ); Return array containing the range [start,stop). static int[] Std.range( int start, int stop, int step ); Return array containing values from start up to (but not including) stop, hopping by step. - (re-added) backtick(`)-delimited strings; context: needed for FaucK (FAUST in ChucK) through the Faust chugin - (fixed) issue related to multiple empty statements (e.g., ;;;;) being incorrectly handled by the function control path analysis - (fixed) issue related to incorrect out-of-order dependencies across different files / contexts (thanks Michael Heuer for investigating) - (fixed) class member/static variables can now be accessed, as before, from anywhere in the same file, regardless of order of declaration (thanks Michael Heuer for investigating) ``` Foo foo; // using val above declaration is part of language semantics // (but due to regression bug was broken in 1.5.0.8) // this should work once again 5 => foo.val; class Foo { int val; } ``` - (updated) 'auto' type is now disallowed as a top-level class variables, instance or static; since these variables could be used from outside the class, 1) this potentially leads to more intentional code and 2) currently there is no mechanism to resolve the 'auto' until type checking stage such that out-of-order access of class variables are resolved. ``` // class definition class Foo { // ok for( auto x : [1,2,3] ) { <<< x >>>; } // ok fun void bar() { 4 => auto y; } // ok if( true ) { 5 => auto x; } // ok { 6 => auto x; } // not ok *** compiler should report error 7 => auto m_var; // not ok *** compiler should report error 8 => static auto m_var; } ``` - (fixed) a memory leak associated with array declarations - (fixed) chout and cherr now properly accounts for IO redirect out of chuck; this addresses issue with miniAudicle console output, and also affects other C++ hosts embedding chuck core. 1.5.1.0 (August 2023) ======= (note) this release (1.5.1.0) updates a long-standing policy regarding `return`statements in function declarations; adds @array.sort(), a new command-line option, general bug fixes and stability improvements. (note) much has been added between 1.5.0.0 and 1.5.1.0, including: * new for-each loop syntax for iterating through arrays (1.5.0.8) * enhanced and more accurate compiler error reporting; now highlights code and pinpointing error location in code (1.5.0.5) * color terminal support for CLI chuck (1.5.0.5) * expanded class library support in IO, random number generation, Machine.eval(), chugins management, and array * new features in CLI chuck, miniAudicle, WebChucK & IDE * (developer) The Great ChucK Repo Cleanup of 2023 (1.5.0.2) * (developer) streamlined c++ integration for those wishing to incorporate ChucK core into other c++ hosts (1.5.0.7) https://github.com/ccrma/chuck/tree/main/src/host-examples * (see below for more information) === - (update) `return` statements in function definitions: PREVIOUSLY: chuck does not require all control paths in non-void functions to explicitly return values -- in cases of missing `return` statements at the end of a function, ChucK implicitly sets the return value to some form of 0 or null, depending on the return type. NEW: the chuck compiler now rejects non-void function definitions in which not all control paths return a value, and will print a compiler error in the form of: "error: not all control paths in 'fun int f()' return a value" RATIONALE: while *** this may break some existing code (apologies!) *** that assumed the previous return semantics (or forgot to return a value or accidentally declared a function as returning something when it should return `void`), we believe this change will be more beneficial in the long-term and will lead to clearer, more intentional code. example: ``` // as of chuck-1.5.1.0, will result in a compiler error fun int foo() { // no return } ``` ChucK performs syntactical analysis of function control paths: ``` // this is valid code, even though the function does not end in a `return` fun float foo( int v ) { if( v == 1 ) return 1; else if( v == 2 ) return 2; else return 3; } // this code will result in a compiler error, since there is no `else` // and no subsequent `return` fun float foo( int v ) { if( v == 1 ) return 1; else if( v == 2 ) return 2; } ``` - (added) array sorting void sort() Sort the contents of the array in ascending order. ** array sorting semantics, by type ** int[]: sort by value float[]: sort by value complex[]: sort by magnitude (2-norm) with phase as tie-breaker polar[]: sort by magnitude with phase as tie-breaker vec3[]: sort by magnitude with x then y then z vec4[]: sort by magnitude with x then y then z then w - (added) new examples |- examples/array/array_sort.ck - (added) IO (cherr, chout, FileIO) for complex, polar, vec3, vec3 e.g., cherr <= #(1,1) <= IO.nl(); e.g., chout <= #(1,1)$polar <= IO.nl(); - (added) overloaded Std.getenv() variant (thanks @ynohtna) string getenv(string value) Get the value of an environment variable, returning the provided default if unset. - (added) --pid-file: CLI option (thanks @ynohtna) "If this flag is specified with argument, chuck will attempt to write its process ID to the given file upon startup, and then remove that file upon shutdown. This assists external process supervision (through tools like monit,etc) for long-running installations that need auto-rebooting, instant kill switches for live performances, and other programmatic external process control." - (fixed) for-each for complex, polar, vec3, vec4 types; (e.g., `for( vec3 n : myVec3Array ) { ... }` - (fixed) compiler issue (introduced in 1.5.0.8) where a declaration in the middle of a three-part chuck statement incorrectly reports error that variable already declared (e.g., `440 => float f => osc.freq;`) - (fixed) error reporting printing for a few binary and unary operators: spork ~, typeof, sizeof, new, <-, -> - (fixed) implicit cast from 'int' to 'float' in function returns; (e.g., `fun float foo() { return 5; }`) 1.5.0.8 (August 2023) ======= (note) this release introduces a for-each control structure for more easily iterating over arrays, as well as an experimental 'auto' type. array support has also been expanded; internally, engine support has been added for a number of features in WebChucK and WebChucK IDE, including retrieving and display the chuck 'now', along with a number of critical chuck parameters; updated ChucK c++ integration - (added) new 'for' control structure in this general syntax: for( VAR : ARRAY ) { ... } where VAR is a declared variable of the same base type as the ARRAY, in each iteration of the for loop body, VAR will take on the value of each element in ARRAY, until the end of ARRAY is reached. For example: ``` // create empty array float array[0]; // append array << 1 << 2.5 << 3; // for each element 'x' in array for( float x : array ) { // print the element <<< x >>>; } ``` or loop over an array literal of values: ``` // iterating over an array literal for( int x : [ 1, 2, 3 ] ) { <<< x >>>; } ``` - (added) new examples using for-each control structure examples/array/foreach-1.ck examples/array/foreach-2.ck examples/array/foreach-3.ck examples/array/foreach-4.ck examples/array/foreach-5.ck examples/array/foreach-6.ck examples/ctrl/ctrl_foreach.ck - (added) new 'auto' type; in certain declarations, infers the actual type of a variable from context. For example: ``` // 'a' will be automatically typed as 'float' 1.5 => auto a; // 'arr' will be automatically typed as 'int[]' [1,2,3] @=> auto arr[]; // can use in the new for-each control structure for( auto x : arr ) // x is automatically typed as 'int' { <<< x >>>; } ``` - (added) new examples for 'auto' examples/type/type_auto.ck examples/array/foreach-auto1.ck examples/array/foreach-auto2.ck - (added) new array operations void erase(int position) Remove element at 'position' from the array. void erase(int begin, int end) Remove element(s) in the range [begin,end). void popFront() Remove the first element of the array. See full array API reference with examples: https://chuck.stanford.edu/doc/reference/base.html#@array - (added) new array examples examples/array/array_append.ck examples/array/array_erase.ck examples/array/array_erase2.ck - (update) map-only function @array.find(string) has been renamed to @array.isInMap(string) to avoid confusion with vector - (added) error checking for out-of-order dependency issues where a function is called (or a class instantiated) that would skip a needed variable initialization; this addresses a long-standing issue that has caused much confusion because previously the issue failed but silently. --- For example, consider this 'foobar.ck' code ``` // does not work here: precedes 'bar' initialization foo(); // where 'bar' initializes 5 => int bar; // FYI calling foo() works here: after 'bar' initializes // foo(); // the function definition fun void foo() { // needs 'bar' to be initialized <<< "bar:", bar >>>; } ``` The new resulting compiler error: ``` > chuck foobar.ck foobar.ck:4:1: error: calling 'foo()' at this point skips initialization of a needed variable: [4] foo(); ^ foobar.ck:7:10: error: ...(note: this skipped variable initialization is needed by 'fun void foo()') [7] 5 => int bar; ^ foobar.ck:16:17: error: ...(note: this is where the variable is used within 'fun void foo()') [16] <<< "bar:", bar >>>; ^ error-depend-var.ck: ...(hint: try calling 'foo()' after the variable initialization) ``` --- Similar errors are reported for class definitions that reference file-top-level variables, etc. - (added) error reporting for public class definitions that access out-of-class local variables and functions; this is necessary to disallow since public classes can be instantiated from any context (file or code) - (updated, documentation) STK classes HnkyTonk and FrencHrn now properly included in the API reference, and with more examples: https://chuck.stanford.edu/doc/reference/ugens-stk.html#HnkyTonk https://chuck.stanford.edu/doc/reference/ugens-stk.html#FrencHrn - (added) new STK examples https://chuck.stanford.edu/doc/examples/stk/honkeytonk-algo1.ck https://chuck.stanford.edu/doc/examples/stk/honkeytonk-algo3.ck https://chuck.stanford.edu/doc/examples/stk/frenchrn-algo2.ck - (added) new examples for Event and SndBuf and repeat examples/event/event-extend2.ck examples/basic/doh.ck examples/ctrl/ctrl_repeat.ck - (added) error checking for public class definitions using an external file-level, non-global variable - (updated, developer) core VM code streamlined for cleaner operation regarding shreds status, remove.all, and access to these from C++; can now use a callback function to get replies from VM queue_msg() - (updated, developer) re-worked ChucK::compileFile() and ChucK::compileCode() to immediately make sporked shred ID available - (developer, added) a 4th example host code in C++ showing how to embed ChucK core as a component inside a host C++ program and get shred info example-4-shreds.cpp (working with shreds and VM msg queue) - (updated, developer) WebChucK API expansion including the following methods available in javascript that calls down to ChucK core: chuck.now() void chuck.setParamInt( string, number ) void chuck.setParamFloat( string, number ) void chuck.setParamString( string, string ) number chuck.getParamInt( string ) number chuck.getParamFloat( string ) string chuck.getParamString( string ) - (updated, developer) VM instruction dump (through +d flag) now prints control structures and other statements === WebChucK/IDE-- a number of UI updates with underlying VM support: https://chuck.stanford.edu/ide/ https://chuck.stanford.edu/webchuck/ === miniAudicle (macOS) critical install bug (which affects those who installed chuck-1.5.0.5 through 1.5.0.7 on macOS) is now addressed, if you are experiencing strangeness with opening CK files, try this troubleshooting recommendation: https://chuck.stanford.edu/release/images/mA-install-duplicate.jpg 1.5.0.7 (July 2023) ======= (note) this patch release contains general internal maintenance for developers; it also accompanies a critical bug fix in miniAudicle - (update/fixed) now --version and --about command-line flags will correctly print all available audio drivers options, e.g., ``` chuck version: 1.5.0.7-dev (chai) macOS | 64-bit audio driver: CoreAudio http://chuck.cs.princeton.edu/ http://chuck.stanford.edu/ ``` ``` > chuck --version chuck version: 1.5.0.7 (chai) Linux | 64-bit audio drivers: ALSA | PulseAudio | JACK http://chuck.cs.princeton.edu/ http://chuck.stanford.edu/ ``` ``` > chuck --version chuck version: 1.5.0.7 (chai) Microsoft Windows | 64-bit audio drivers: ASIO | DirectSound | WASAPI http://chuck.cs.princeton.edu/ http://chuck.stanford.edu/ ``` - (developer, updated) internal streamlining of chuck core, which is now completely decoupled from knowledge of system audio I/O; this makes chuck core cleaner, more portable, and easier to integrate as a component - (developer, added) examples hosts code in C++ showing how to embed ChucK core as a component inside a host C++ program: src/host-examples/ example-1-minimal.cpp (no real-time audio) example-2-audio.cpp (real-time audio) example-3-globals.cpp (communication between C++ and ChucK) - (developer, added) chuck core can now be built without specifying additional macros, added new core build flavor: 'vanilla' ``` src/core> make vanilla ``` Builds all source inside src/core, no flags and no linking (The vanilla build is not intended for production but for development.) - (developer, updated) internal cleanup of platform macros: __PLATFORM_APPLE__ __PLATFORM_LINUX__ __PLATFORM_WINDOWS__ __PLATFORM_EMSCRIPTEN__ __PLATFORM_ANDROID__ (with additional sub-platform macros) 1.5.0.6 (July 2023) ======= - (fixed, high priority) VM replace print crash - (updated) VM operation message colors 1.5.0.5 (July 2023) ======= - (added) color TTY support for command-line chuck is here! ChucK in color! compiler errors, probes, logs, on-the-fly programming (OTF), and other messages are now output in color, when chuck detects it is outputting to a TTY (e.g., interactive terminal). - (added) color TTY can can be explicitly enabled/disabled using --color and --no-color when running chuck on the command line - (added) color TTY support for --verbose --probe and --chugin-probe === - (added) chuck compiler now highlights code when reporting compiler errors, pinpointing the error location ``` terminal> chuck test/06-Errors/error-no-memb2.ck error-no-memb2.ck:3:5: error: class 'SinOsc' has no member 'test' [3] foo.test(); ^ terminal> chuck test/06-Errors/error-syntax-1.ck error-syntax-1.ck:5:12: syntax error [5] */ it @ is not ! valid => syntax! ^ ``` - (added) error message when given a directory name instead of .ck file ``` terminal> chuck myFolder [chuck]: cannot parse file: 'myFolder' is a directory ``` - (added) --disable-error-show-code command line flag to not print code highlighting when reporting compiler errors this is a compatibility flag and is mainly used for unit testing === - (updated) Machine.eval() execution semantics *** NEW: Machine.eval() now will immediately spork and run the evaluated code as a new shred, and automatically yield the current shred to give the new shred a chance to run, without advancing time. *** PREVIOUSLY: Machine.eval() sent an ADD message, this incurs a one sample delay and does not run immediately --- For example, this one line program under the NEW behavior will print 1 before "foo"; the PREVIOUS behavior would print "foo" first and will not print 1 until time is advanced by a > 0 amount ``` Machine.eval( "<<< 1 >>>;" ); <<< "foo" >>>; ``` - (updated) examples/machine/eval.ck -- updated to reflect the above - (added) examples/machine/eval-global.ck -- shows the new Machine.eval() in action to synchronously modify a shared global variable - (added) examples/machine/version.ck -- ever wonder which chuck language version you are currently using? - (added) scientific notations for floating point <<< 123e4 >>>; // prints 1230000.000000 :(float) - (added) hexidecimal float literals <<< 0x1p-4 >>>; // prints 0.062500 :(float) - (updated) chugins with errors during query are no longer loaded, and is more clearly reported (LOG level -v3 or above) - (updated) more robust parsing of code literals - (updated, developer) repaying ancient debt -- AST tree cleanup - (updated, developer) reworking chuck_vm_debug system - (updated, developer) renaming global names CK_* or ck_* to minimize conflict when using chuck-core as component 1.5.0.4 (June 2023) ======= - (added) Math.randomize() -- implicitly randomize RNG seed --- "Randomize the seed of the random number generator (RNG), using an non-deterministic mechanism. Whereas srandom() explicitly seeds the RNG and will produce a deterministic sequence of pseudo-random numbers, randomize() "shakes things up" and causes RNG to start generating from a practically unpredicable seed. The quality of randomize() depends on the underlying implementation." - (added) examples |- math/randomize.ck -- shows Math.randomize() in action |- math/maybe.ck -- can't decide? flip a coin with maybe |- math/int-dist.ck -- simulates distribution of Math.random2() - (updated) improved RNG behavior that probably no one will notice - (fixed) assignments into a full array declaration now results in a compiler error (previously this would cause a crash). for example: === code === [1,2] @=> int foo[2]; === resulting compiler error === cannot assign '@=>' to full array declaration... |- hint: declare right-hand-side as empty array |- e.g., int foo[] - (note) as before, assignments into a full non-array declaration still works, effectively treating the right-hand-side declaration as a reference: === code === // effective same as new Object @=> Object @ foo; // works as before new Object @=> Object foo; - (added) --chugin-probe command-line flag to probe (and verify version) for chugins and auto-load chuck sources in the search paths; print results and any version mismatches (e.g., `chuck --chugin-probe`) also, explicited named chugins can be probed using --chugins:[FILE] (e.g., `chuck --chugin:Foo.chug --chugin:Bar.chug --chugin-probe`) - (added) chugins loading in search directories now will recursively search in subdirectories - (added, macOS + Linux) ~/.chuck/lib added to the list of default search directories; this makes it easier to locally install/organize chugins (and auto-load .ck files) without administrator privilege --- macOS /usr/local/lib/chuck /Library/Application Support/ChucK/chugins ~/Library/Application Support/ChucK/chugins ~/.chuck/lib Linux /usr/local/lib/chuck ~/.chuck/lib Windows C:\Windows\system32\ChucK C:\Program Files\ChucK\chugins C:\Program Files (x86)\ChucK\chugins C:\Users\%USERNAME%\Documents\ChucK\chugins --- - (updated) chuck --verbose output now streamlined and more effectively describes what is happening under-the-hood; e.g., `chuck [FILENAMES] -v2` to see SYSTEM output `chuck [FILENAMES] -v5` to see INFORM output `chuck [FILENAMES] -v10` to see ALL!!! output - (updated) setting chuck log level is no longer logged below INFORM log-level - (fixed, developer) distinct notions of base type reference and array reference; for example SinOsc @ foo[] -> `SinOsc @` is base type reference and `foo[]` is array reference - (fixed, developer) instruction dumps (via +d flag) more correctly prints reference-related (@) declarations and new operations 1.5.0.3 (June 2023) ======= - (fixed) chuck audio I/O now correctly carries out extended probing for default input and output devices with differing sample rates, e.g., with some bluetooth mic/headphones whose input is limited to 24kHZ, including some AirPods. - (note) beyond the above, this release is a follow-up maintenance release; please see 1.5.0.1 and earlier release notes to see recent feature updates - (updated) examples/README now has more useful information - (updated) README.md streamlined and linux build instructions improved. - (updated, developer) `make linux-all` (or simply `make linux`) now builds all supported drivers (e.g., ALSA, PulseAudio, JACK); this is equivalent in outcome to `make linux-alsa linux-pulse linux-jack` - (updated, developer) makefile streamlined 1.5.0.2 (June 2023) ======= (note) this is primarily a maintenance release; please see 1.5.0.1 and earlier release notes to see recent feature updates - (fixed) (jack, linux/unix) port name now accounts for regex meta characters (thanks @gyroplast and @garyscavone) - (developer) house cleaning on the chuck git repository |- migrated large files out of 'chuck' and into a new 'chuck-media' repo |- streamlined release notes and moved to top level |- removed outdated files |- added additional information including ChucK History into README.md -- NOTE TO DEVELOPERS -- The Great ChucK Repo Cleanup of 2023 has been completed! As a result, the overall chuck repo size has been reduced from 721MB to 25MB. Since git works by cloning the entire repo and all history, this massively improves the speed of git clone, git submodule update --init in repos that reference chuck, and the size of each chuck clone on disk. To accomplish this, we had to "rewrite the git history," which is a semi-cataclysmic process for git repos. As a result, all existing clones of the chuck, miniAudicle, and chunity repos as well as branches and pull-requests that reference the older repo *** are now invalid ***. Please do a fresh clone of the chuck/miniAudicle/chunity repos and copy any important changes to these fresh clones before making any further changes to avoid headaches! NOTE: do not use git pull with your existing, pre-cleanup chuck repo as it will seem to work BUT will put your local repo into a messed up state. A fresh git clone is necessary before proceeding with chuck development! We believe that the cleaner, smoother ChucK dev experience will be worth this short-term inconvenience. Apologies for any confusion that may arise, and thank you for being involved in ChucK development! A "legacy" pre-cleanup fork of the repository before the Cleanup has been archived here: https://github.com/spencersalazar/chuck-legacy --- miniAudicle (added: few helpful features) - (added) menu "Help" now has items that will open websites in the default browser: "ChucK Class Library Reference..." https://chuck.stanford.edu/doc/reference/ "ChucK Documentation..." https://chuck.stanford.edu/doc/ "ChucK Community..." https://chuck.stanford.edu/community/ - (updated) menu "Help" now correctly directs user to miniAudicle and ChucK websites: "ChucK website..." https://chuck.stanford.edu/ "miniAudicle website..." https://github.com/ccrma/miniAudicle/ - (added, Windows/Linux) Device Browser now has an "Audio driver" drop-down box that can select an available driver to view its associated audio devices 1.5.0.1 (June 2023) ======= - (added) WvOut support for multiple bit-depths: 16-bit signed int, 24-bit signed int, 32-bit signed int, 32-bit float, 64-bit float - (added) the above can be optionally specified in new overloaded WvOut methods: string aifFilename( string value, int datatype ); Open an AIFF file for writing, with datatype (e.g., IO.INT16, IO.INT24, IO.INT32, IO.FLOAT32, IO.FLOAT64). string sndFilename( string value, int datatype ); Open SND file for writing, with datatype (e.g., IO.INT16, IO.INT24, IO.INT32, IO.FLOAT32, IO.FLOAT64). string wavFilename( string value, int datatype ); Open WAVE file for writing, with datatype (e.g., IO.INT16, IO.INT24, IO.INT32, IO.FLOAT32, IO.FLOAT64). string matFilename( string value, int datatype ); Open MATLAB file for writing; NOTE: datatype for MATLAB files can only be IO.FLOAT64. string rawFilename( string value, int datatype ); Open a RAW file for writing; NOTE: datatype for raw files can only be IO.INT16 - (added) examples/stk/wvout-24bit.ck shows writing to a 24-bit audio file - (added) new IO flags: IO.INT24, IO.INT64, IO.FLOAT32, IO.FLOAT64 IO.UINT8, IO.SINT8, IO.UINT16, IO.SINT16, IO.UINT32, IO.SINT32, IO.UINT64, IO.SINT64 - (fixed) (Windows) HID joystick input |- note: certain joystick devices (including some XBox One gamepads) are recognized but do not receive input data; a workaround is to install explicitly HID drivers for these devices; see |- https://www.snes9x.com/phpbb3/viewtopic.php?t=27510&sid=661fbbc1609037a8ec2e5f10e003f5a0 |- (from above URL): open Device Manager, expand "Human Interface Devices", right click "XINPUT compatible HID device", "Update driver", "Browse my computer", "Let me pick". should be three options. Try "HID-compliant game controller". If you want to undo the change, same thing but update "HID-compliant game controller" and pick the XINPUT *** - (updated) BINARY mode for IO now able to read signed vs. unsigned integers, specified using using .readtInt( flags ), where 'flags' is one of the above IO flags; in BINARY mode, IO.INT8/16/32 now returns unsigned integers, same as IO.UINT8/16/32; to read in signed two's complement integers, use the new IO.SINT8/16/32/64 flags - (added) FileIO.readFloat( int flags) and FileIO.write( float val, int flags ) these overloaded versions of readFloat() and write() respectively have a 'flags' argument to specify the kind of float (IO.FLOAT32 or IO.FLOAT64) - (added) examples/io/read-wav-raw.ck -- illustrates directly parsing a WAV file using FileIO in binary mode (author: Perry R. Cook) - (added) examples/special/scream-o-matic/ -- using LiSa + granular synthesis for a scream texture generator. - (fixed) potential-crash-on-shutdown type system issue - (fixed) CNoise incorrect bias on pink noise (thank you anthonyhawes) - (updated) on all platforms, Math.random*() functions now internally use a standard Mersenne Twister RNG (mt19937); this greatly improves the quality of RNG output, especially on Windows - (updated) on Linux, better default runtime driver selection for Jack and ALSA - (updated/developer) chuck core minimum c++ level raised to c++11; projects need compile chuck core with earlier dialect of c++ would need to modify the source code accordingly - (updated/developer) makefile for linux-jack - (updated/developer) migrated RegEx module from base chuck to chugin - (added/developer) DL Api array4 operations from chugin - (added/developer) ChuckArray4::contains_object() returns whether array4 contains object references or integers --- miniAudicle - (updated) on Windows and Linux; miniAudicle now has a "Audio driver" drop-down selection in the Preferences dialog window; this selections allows for run-time selection of different drivers, e.g., "DirectSound", "WASAPI", or "ASIO" on Windows, as well as "Jack", "Pulse", or "ALSA" on Linux - (fixed) miniAudicle linux compilation using Qt6 |- FYI: needs qscintilla-qt6-devel and qscintilla-qt6) [Many thanks to Fernando Lopez-Lezcano and Nils Tonn??tt] ======= 1.5.0.0 (May 2023) ======= *************************************************************************** * chuck-1.5.0.0 (chai) *************************************************************************** * significant addition: ChAI (Chuck + AI) * significant update: WebChucK (ChucK in web browser) + WebChucK IDE * also: new features, new bug fixes, and new bugs! *************************************************************************** (NOTE) WebChucK (ChucK on browsers) [beta] was released during the development of this version. WebChucK IDE (program chuck on the web): https://chuck.stanford.edu/ide/ WebChucK landing page (including using WebChucK in your web projects) https://chuck.stanford.edu/webchuck/ --- (NOTE) ChAI (ChucK + AI), first appeared in beta as part of chuck-1.4.2.0; ChAI was used in the course Music 356 / CS 470 "Music and AI" [*] at Stanford University, taught by Ge Wang and Yikai Li (TA); Many thanks to the immensely creative students of "Music and AI". The v1.0 version of the ChAI API and modules is hereby released, with new additions on the way. ChAI landing page: https://chuck.stanford.edu/chai/ "Music and AI" (Winter 2023 Stanford University) -- taught with ChAI https://ccrma.stanford.edu/courses/356-winter-2023/ --- (HISTORICAL NOTE for ChAI) Much of ChAI and its ways of thinking and doing can be foundationally attributed to the work of Dr. Rebecca Fiebrink, her landmark Ph.D. Thesis, /Real-time Human Interaction With Supervised Learning Algorithms for Music Composition and Performance/ (2011) [1], the Wekinator framework [2], her teaching at the intersections of AI, HCI, and Music [3], as well as earlier collaborations between Rebecca and Ge [4,5] including SMIRK [6] (Small Musical Information Retrieval toolKit; 2008; MARSYAS and the MIR work of Dr. George Tzanetakis; early efforts in on-the-fly learning), the unit analyzer framework [7] (2007; afford real-time audio feature extraction). All of these have directly or indirectly contributed the creation of ChAI. Additionally, ChAI benefitted from the teaching and design philosophy of Dr. Perry R. Cook (Ph.D. advisor to Rebecca, George, and Ge at Princeton, and ChucK co-author), who argued for real-time human interaction, parametric sound synthesis, and the importance of play in the design of musical tools.

*significant* performance throughput observed running chuck natively on Apple Silicon - (modified) building from source, on MacOS command line: > make mac (compile for current architecture: arm64/x86_64) > make mac-ub (compile universal binary: arm64+x86_64) > lipo -archs ./chuck (checks architectures) > ./chuck --about (prints out compiled platform... ...and if compiled as universal binary): --- chuck version: 1.4.1.1 (numchucks) macOS : 64-bit [universal binary] --- > make osx (deprecated; use 'make mac' or 'make mac-ub') - (updated, pre-built executables, MacOS) both command line chuck and miniAudicle are now built as universal binaries to support both intel(x86_64) and Apple silicion/M1(arm64) architectures - (updated, pre-built executables, MacOS) all packaged chugins are now also built as universal binaries - (added) Math.equal( float x, float y ) returns whether two floats are considered equivalent - (added) array.popOut( int index ) removes an array element by index [thanks chamington and nshaheed] - (added) OscOut.send() error reporting now includes the intended recipient (hostname:port) - (added) examples/hid/gametra.ck boilerplate gametrak code - (moved) examples/osc/1-send-recv/ moved s.ck and r.ck (sender and receiver) examples here - (added) examples/osc/2-multi-msg/ examples for interleaving two OSC message types at different rates - (added) examples/osc/3-one2many/ examples showing one sender to many receivers - (added) examples/osc/4-multicast/ examples showing one sender using multicast to broadcast - (added) examples/stk/hevymetl-dance-now.ck example of power chords in sequence - (fixed) fixed Lisa-load.ck to correct load sound file [thanks nshaheed] - (fixed) CK_STDCERR now flushes on all output - (fixed) error message display for MidiFileIn (STK) - (fixed) array literal assignment now works as expected when common ancestor type is child type of the RHS type;

disabled 87.ck due to Math.isnan() behaving differently on Apple Silicon; modified 03-Modules/std01.ck to handled floating point equivalence differently; also prompted adding Math.equal(); modified 05-Global/86.ck to disable Math.isnan() - (updated, internal) integer types update for smoother Windows 64 bit - (noted) synchronization point for Chunity version x.x.x - (added) added to VERSIONS (this file) release dates since initial release in 2004 1.4.1.0 (June 2021) --- (NOTE) chuck-1.4.1.0 is the first significant release resulting from a coordinated team effort to update and improve ChucK for teaching and research. In April 2021, Perry and Ge led a ChucK "Global Repair-a-thon", which identified issues and put forth a new Development Roadmap. The ChucK dev team will follow this roadmap for updates, new features, and new ChucK mediums (e.g., Chunity, WebChucK, FaucK, ChucKTrip, and more). Many people were involved in this significant release, including Jack Atherton, Mike Mulshine, Matt Wright, Rebecca Fiebrink, Dan Trueman, Lloyd May, Mark Cerqueira, Mario Buoninfante, Perry Cook, Spencer Salazar, and Ge Wang. Many thanks to everyone who contributed. Happy ChucKing! --- - (added) static Object.help(); All ChucK objects (i.e., all non-primitive types) can now invoke .help(), which will dynamically generate and print to console the description and inheritance hierarchy of the underlying type, as well as the available functions at runtime. This can be called on any object instance or on any class (without an instance): // any object instance SinOsc foo; // print to console info about its underlying type foo.help(); (OR) // call help() from any class (identical output as above) SinOsc.help(); Intended to be a quick runtime reference / learning tool! - (added) examples/help.ck -- show .help() in action - (added) examples/deep/chant.ck (by Perry Cook, 2006) -- a chant singing synthesizer that makes use of ChucK's strongly-time and concurrent programming features. - (added) new Multi-channel LiSa UGens! (LiSa10 was already present) LiSa2 (stereo) LiSa4 (quad), LiSa6 (6-channel; laptop orchestra edition!) LiSa8 (8-channel), LiSa16 (16-channel) - (fixed) LiSa playback bug; voice panning now handles the mono case; previously was silencing voice playback - (added) new STK set/get access functions in FM: float op4Feedback( float value ); Set operator 4 feedback. float op4Feedback(); Get operator 4 feedback. float opADSR( int opNum, float a, float d, float s, float r ); Set operator ADSR: attack, decay, sustain, release. float opAM( int opNum, float value ); Set operator amplitude modulation. float opAM( int opNum ); Get operator amplitude modulation. float opGain( int opNum, float value ); Set operator gain. float opGain( int opNum ); Get gperator gain. float opRatio( int opNum, float ratio ); Set operator frequency ratio. float opRatio( int opNum ); Get operator frequency ratio. float opWave( int opNum, int wave ); Set operator waveform [1-8]. - (added) new Synthesis Toolkit (STK) FM instruments from Perry! HnkyTonk: STK-style Honkey Tonk Piano FM synthesis instrument. (aka, Algorithm 1 of the Yamaha TX81Z DX11 FM synthesizer) FrencHrn: STK-style French Horn FM synthesis instrument. (aka, Algorithm 2 of the Yamaha TX81Z DX11 FM synthesizer) KrstlChr: STK-style "Crystal Choir" FM synthesis instrument. (aka, Algorithm 7 of the Yamaha TX81Z DX11 FM synthesizer) *** for each of these, try using the new .help() to examine its documentation and interface; e.g., HnkyTonk.help(); *** - (added) new Moog function: float filterStartFreq( float freq ); Set filter starting frequency. float filterStartFreq(); Get filter starting frequency. - (added) new STK examples: examples/stk/frenchrn-algo2.ck -- FM French Horn demo examples/stk/honkeytonk-algo1.ck -- fun with FM Honkey Tonk examples/stk/krstlchr-algo7.ck -- heavenly FM Kristal Choir examples/stk/hevymetl-acoustic-algo3.ck -- FM HevyMetl => Nylon Guitar examples/stk/hevymetl-trumpet-algo3.ck -- FM HevyMetl => Trumpet examples/stk/rhodey-song.ck -- a lovely little number - (updated) tweaks to a number of STK UGens, which may result in audio changes; the affected UGens are: BandedWG, BeeThree, FMVoices, HevyMetl, PercFlut, Rhodey, TubeBell, Wurley - (fixed) issue in PluckTwo in computing delay length; this affects the tuning of various plucked string models, including Mandolin. - (added) .frames() for SndBuf and SndBuf2; returns the number of sample frames in the loaded sound file. This is identical in behavior to .samples() -- but for stereo+, .frames() is semanitically more accurate than .samples(). - (added) "global" declarations for int, float, string, Object, UGen, Event; this can be used in-language across ChucK files (each file must first "declare" the global value before using it). This also support usage from external hosts such as Chunity. (thanks to Jack Atherton for this work!) - (added) constant power panning (as controlled by the .pan parameter) for all UGen_Stereo--including Pan2, stereo dac, stereo adc; this is controllable using the new .panType parameter. By default, constant power panning is NOT enabled for dac and adc, whose panning behavior is unchanged (panType==0) and favors a kind of unity-gain-preserving but perceptually suspect panning scheme. By contrast, Pan2 will default to use constant power panning (panType==1). This change will alter the effect of any existing code that uses Pan2. Specifically, it will introduce a ~3 dB reduction in the output Pan2 (it is possible to restore the previous behavior by explicitly setting .panType to 0). This ~3 dB reduction corresponds to the equal-powered amplitude value when pan is at center (pan=0). Mathematically, the reduction amount can be calculated using Std.lintodb(Math.cos(pi/4)) [To hear this new behavior, check out examples/stereo/stereo_noise.ck] - (BEHAVIOR CHANGED) clearly separated array.size() and array.capacity(); for historical/compatibility reasons, array.cap() is the same as array.size() and generally should be avoided in favor of either .size() or .capacity() - (BEHAVIOR CHANGED): internally, all ChucK static functions are now passed an extra parameter (Chuck_Type * TYPE) as a pointer to the base type/class. This will affect Chugins, which should be updated/ rebuilt with the latest headers. - (BEHAVIOR CHANGED): when connecting two multi-channel UGen's (both are at least stereo), say LHS => RHS, if LHS channels < RHS channels, the channels will be connected one-by-one up to the LHS channel count; previously, the LHS channels will be automatically repeated to connect to the RHS channels that have no corresponding LHS channels. This behavior can still be achieved by manually connecting the individual channels of LHS and and RHS through LHS.chan(n) and RHS.chan(n). - (fixed) resolved a bug with SndBuf not playing when .rate < 0 and while .pos beyond the end - (fixed) resolved a bug with SndBuf where it could output DC when .rate < 0 after it reaches the beginning of the file (e.g., if the first sample is non-zero) - (fixed) resolved a bug in ADSR when sustain is set to 0 and audio stops, .releaseTime return NaN and basically the world ends (thanks to mariobuoninfante for help in addressing this) - (fixed) reset Gen10 table to allow add/remove partials; thanks to mariobuoninfant - (fixed) updated MidiOut and removed check in order to allow messages of size less than or greater than 3 bytes; thanks to mariobuoninfante for this issue report on Ubuntu Studio 64-bit; this fix addresses the sending of MIDI clock, stop, continue, and SysEx -- also thank you mariobuoninfante for the fix. - (fixed) ChucK shell can now be exited either by the "exit" command or through ctrl-c. Previously. ctrl-c sometimes failed to end the the program due to logic in the global cleanup function; this has been addressed. - (fixed) addressed an issue where Chugins were being loaded twice. - (fixed) the --chugin-load:off option is now correclty taken into account and will appropriately result in no Chugins being loaded. - (deprecated) Chubgraph => (new) Chugraph; Chubgraph will continue to function, with a deprecation warning. - (documentation) updated embedded documentation text for all statically linked UGens and libraries. - (documentation) brought examples in alignment between distribution and the online examples collection; many examples updated for clarity and utility http://chuck.stanford.edu/doc/examples http://chuck.cs.princeton.edu/doc/examples - (internal/refactor) the "Mega Merge 2021" integrates a long-standing branch since REFACTOR-2017 that includes support for globals and was the basis for Chunity. Future Chunity releases will align with mainline ChucK language features. (thanks to Jack Atherton for several years of laying the groundwork and for ChucK in Chunity!) - (internal/developement) added m_started flag to the ChucK class to avoid a strange (but mostly harmless) condition when the virtual machine is shutting down and ChucK::run() attempt to call ChucK::start() - (internal/development) Thanks to Mark Cerqueira -- migrated from old Travis CI (continuous integration testing) to GHA (GitHub Actions). 1.4.0.1 (May 2020) --- - (fixed) when opening audio input devices where the default device has insufficient chanels (e.g., MacOS input is mono by default), logic has been added to also match sample rates when searching for alternate audio input devices; additional logic added in the specific case of mono input devices to simulate stereo, to fulfill the standard request for stereo input. - (fixed) added check to prevent crash in rare situations involving self-join when deleting XThread in background. (git PR #103) - (fixed) by stuntgoat@github -- right-recursion in chuck parser can exhaust memory in larger chuck files; this has been updated to use left recursion. (git PR #32, (finally) merged by hand by Spencer and Ge) Also thanks to Tom Lieber for the initial analysis and solution: https://lists.cs.princeton.edu/pipermail/chuck-users/2009-April/004029.html - (added) by Nathan Tindall -- Q and freq bounding for filters (LPF, HPF, BPF, BRF) to avoid LOUD FILTER EXPLOSIONS; now negative values will throw an exception on the offending shred. - (restored, macOS) MAUI Chugin now (re)supported, post 1.4.0.0 - (added; developer) ChucK.h API to set a main thread hook (e.g., for graphical functionalitie from Chugins) - (updated, developer) Chugin API now support main thread callback for graphical-/GUI purposes - (developer) refactored code to move I/O-related code out of chuck_lang and into chuck_io. 1.4.0.0 (February 2018) --- ******************************************************** * NOTE: 1.4.0.0 is a simultaneous release with 1.3.6.0;* * the two are identical except 1.3.6.0 also supports * * earlier version of OS X before 10.9 (back to 10.5). * ******************************************************** * MAJOR SOURCE REFACTOR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!* * (Thanks Jack Atherton for months of groundwork!) * ******************************************************** - (added) support for 64-bit on windows - (added) Chuck_External API for including and running ChucK from elsewhere in C++ - specify the sample rate - optionally specify the directory that me.dir() should evaluate to;
