BOOST XML JUCE

Thanks for your replies,
Programming is indeed challenging but fun.

That nice code Xeniakos posted gets the chord values but it’s still hard for me to see how to dynamically create pointers to all the values in the audioprocessor class .

Just thinking aloud can I just somehow employ BOOST and have a button in the GUI that loads an xml file and parses it to populate the 2d std:vector ?
I have the boost file working standalone.

I see other folks have used BOOST

Issues With Linking Boost

I am having an issue with dynamically linking with a couple of Boost’s libraries. Specifically, libboost_system and libboost_filesystem for use in a boost::asio based HTTP library. I am attempting to compile AU, VST, and VST3 files. The project compiles completely fine, but I can not load the VST or AU in REAPER. It does not even show up in my plug-in library. I deduced that it might be an issue with the dylibs for the boost library not existing in a place that the executable can find them. So, …

I would assume it’s possible for a callback in the GUI to start a process of overwriting the std:vector member in the audioprocessor class .
Is that idea too naughty ?
The thing is that none of this stuff needs to happen while the audio thread is running . You just need to be able to create chord sequences and load em up and play them with the midi callbacks.
Shouldn’t it be relatively easy for a JUCE plugin to at least run some C++ code pretty much in the background ?
