ofxAbletonLink
Ableton Link addon for openFrameowkrs
Test
OSX Yosemite 10.14.6 Xcode 11.2 oF0.10.1 osx release
Automated tests
testApp runs no-window unit tests for the public settings API and verifies that constructing and destroying ofxAbletonLink adds and removes exactly one openFrameworks update listener. Its Make build uses C++20 to exercise the std::result_of compatibility layer.make -C testApp Debug OF_ROOT=/path/to/openFrameworks
make -C testApp RunDebug OF_ROOT=/path/to/openFrameworksGitHub Actions runs the same tests with openFrameworks 0.12.1 using macOS Make, macOS Xcode, Linux Make, and Windows Visual Studio builds.
Setup
git clone --recursive git@github.com:2bbb/ofxAbletonLink.gitif you don't use ProjectGenerator
add header search path ofxAbletonLink/libs/compat ofxAbletonLink/libs/link/include ofxAbletonLink/libs/link/modules/asio-standalone/asio/include add project ofxAbletonLink/src/ofxAbletonLink.h !!! DON'T add other files to project
C++ dialect
The bundled Ableton Link (2019) uses
std::result_of in PeerGateways.hpp. That trait was removed in C++20; std::invoke_result arrived in C++17.libs/compat (first include path) shadows PeerGateways.hpp and picks the trait from the language mode:C++11 / C++14 (OF 0.10–0.11):
std::result_of C++17+: std::invoke_resultOn C++20+ only,
ofxAbletonLink.h also sets ASIO_HAS_STD_INVOKE_RESULT so Asio 1.14 does not using std::result_of (Asio enables that itself on MSVC already). Older dialects are left alone so C++11/14 OF projects keep building.Drop
libs/compat when bumping the libs/link submodule to a Link release that already uses invoke_result.Update histor
2026/08/31 ver 0.0.4
C++20/23:
std::invoke_result when the dialect is C++17+; keep std::result_of for older OF. Asio ASIO_HAS_STD_INVOKE_RESULT only on C++20+.2019/11/25 ver 0.0.3
