How to pass parameters (hv_param) to a PureDataStream

[jonascant]

I would like to use values generated by a rotary encoder to manipulate objects in a puredata patch. I think I can use @hv_param, but i don't see a way to pass it in the arduino sketch.

I never tried anyhting like this, but I suggest to look into the sendFloatToReceiver method of the HeavyContext object.

  /**
   * A convenience function to send a float to a receiver to be processed immediately.
   * The receiver is addressed with its hash, which can also be determined using hv_stringToHash().
   * This function is thread-safe.
   *
   * @return  True if the message was accepted. False if the message could not fit onto
   *          the message queue to be processed this block.
   */
  virtual bool sendFloatToReceiver(hv_uint32_t receiverHash, float f) = 0;

if anyone has figured this out I'd love to know :) in a similar way I think it should also be possible to pass midi in to control things in the pd patch but I'm as yet unable to get it working
