I don't know about the segv signal, but it seems to me that there is only one Bang instance that is shared by all iterations/shreds. This means that if two events arrive at this loop:


       while( oe.nextMsg() ) {
           oe.getInt() => b.value;
           osctype => b.message;
           b.broadcast();
       }

the second's values will overwrite those of the first (value and message from the first event will be lost).

I think that's right and I think the way around this would be

       while( oe.nextMsg() ) {
           oe.getInt() => b.value;
           osctype => b.message;
           b.broadcast();
           //yield to receiving shreds,
           //then continue processing the message cue
           me.yield();
       }

This is the exact same principle I talked about earlier in this topic; if you don't yield you don't give the waiting shreds a chance to run. Advancing time here would probably not be a good idea.

Yours,
