Description

Plugin opcode in osc.

Gives the Count of OSC messages currently unread but received by the current listeners.

Syntax

kans OSCcount

Performance

kans -- set to the number of messages accepted by this Csound process to any address but not yet presented to a call of OSClisten.

The expected use of this opcode is when there are a number of listeners and we can decide checking them all if there are no messages.

Example

This example shows a pair of floating point numbers being received on port 7770.

  sr = 44100
  ksmps = 100
  nchnls = 2

  gihandle OSCinit 7770

  instr   1
    kf1 init 0
    kf2 init 0
    kk  OSCcount
nxtmsg:

if (kk == 0) goto ex
  kr  OSClisten gihandle, "/foo/bar", "ff", kf1, kf2
    printk 0,kf1
    printk 0,kf2
    kk -= 1
    kgoto nxtmsg
ex:
  endin
