I would like to save the state of an AudioProcessorGraph as XML. Ideally this would include:
- The collection of nodes and how they are hooked together
- The processor used by each node, including its filename (they are VSTs in my graph) so that it can be reloaded
- The parameters for each processor
I can see that AudioProcessorGraph as a getStateInformation() method. But when I call it on a graph that I know is connected together, it returns an empty memory block.
It looks as though I’m supposed to use getStateInformation() and getXmlFromBinary() to do what I want, but I don’t get the binary data and getXmlFromBinary() is protected. So I can’t call it on my graph. I’m writing a VST hosting app, so I’m just using the various audio classes, rather than creating my own.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
thanks,
Richard
