ReadableNodeIDAllocator | SuperCollider 3.12.2 Help

Description

In multi-client setups, it is useful to know which client created which nodeIDs on a shared server. ReadableNodeIDAllocator provides that facility by using a decimal prefix based on the clientID.// default server uses a ReadableNodeIDAllocator s.nodeAllocator; s.nodeAllocator.userID; // its userID is s.clientID // which creates this defaultGroup 1 s.defaultGroup; s.defaultGroupID; // and temp nodes begin with 1000 ... 3.do { s.nextNodeID.postln }; // make a dummy server with different clientID r = Server(\remote4, s.addr, s.options, clientID: 4); // defaultGroup begins with 400000 ... prefix and ends with 1 r.defaultGroup; r.defaultGroupID; // and temp nodes begin with 400001000 ... 3.do { r.nextNodeID.postln };

Class Methods

ReadableNodeIDAllocator.new(clientID: 0, lowestTempID: 1000, numClients: 32)

make a new instance for given clientID, offset for lowest temporary id, and

Arguments:

clientID	the clientID for which to create an offset/prefix
lowestTempID	the offset for the lowest temporary id
numClients	the number of clients for which to split the number range// make an allocator with id 11 a = ReadableNodeIDAllocator(11, 1000, 12); // begins with 1100000 ... prefix 3.do { a.alloc.postln };
