Remove AudioProcessorGraph connection from Editor

Audio Plugins

Hi,
is it thread-safe add or remove AudioProcessorGraph connections from Editor (for example on Button event)?

void MyAudioProcessorEditor::buttonClicked(Button* button) {
  processor.removeConnection();
}

void MyAudioProcessor::removeConnection() {
  	graph.removeConnection(ioProcInNode->nodeId, 0, moduleEQ->getNodeID(), 0);
	graph.removeConnection(ioProcInNode->nodeId, 1, moduleEQ->getNodeID(), 1);
	graph.removeConnection(moduleEQ->getNodeID(), 0, ioProcOutNode->nodeId, 0);
	graph.removeConnection(moduleEQ->getNodeID(), 1, ioProcOutNode->nodeId, 1);
}

Thanks for your answer

I think for simple calls you can add a lock, that way processBlock and your remove calls cannot occur at the same time:

void MyAudioProcessor::removeConnection() {
    ScopedLock myLock (getCallbackLock());
    graph.removeConnection(ioProcInNode->nodeId, 0, moduleEQ->getNodeID(), 0);
    graph.removeConnection(ioProcInNode->nodeId, 1, moduleEQ->getNodeID(), 1);
    graph.removeConnection(moduleEQ->getNodeID(), 0, ioProcOutNode->nodeId, 0);
    graph.removeConnection(moduleEQ->getNodeID(), 1, ioProcOutNode->nodeId, 1);
}

But don’t use the lock for something that may block longer (especially things that allocate memory).

Hope that helps
