I have an Audio Unit plugin with no editor that loads a VST plugin and returns its editor to the DAW (in createEditor).
When I try to resize this editor, my plugin crashes at juce_VST_Wrapper.mm::setNativeHostWindowSize:
if (NSView* hostView = (NSView*) window)
{
const int dx = newWidth - component->getWidth();
const int dy = newHeight - component->getHeight();
NSRect r = [hostView frame]; - CRASHES HERE
r.size.width += dx;
r.size.height += dy;
r.origin.y -= dy;
[hostView setFrame: r];
}
From what I can see, the window NSView* first receives its value during the first call to createEditor, in the following line of juce_VST_Wrapper.cpp (ptr is the pointer to that NSView*):
hostWindow = attachComponentToWindowRef (editorComp, ptr, useNSView);
But after a while, during startup, the timerCallback of AutoResizingNSViewComponentWithParent in juce_audio_processors.cpp is called, changing it:
void timerCallback() override
{
if (NSView* child = getChildView())
{
stopTimer();
setView (child);
}
}
But I can't see the hostWindow in VST_Wraper getting updated. Could this be the reason?
I'm really grasping at straws here, any help will be greatly appreciated.
