missing header file "aeffectx.h"

[RadicalRingtail]

not sure if this is a bug or if im just missing one of the requirements (currently on macOS 11.0.1, gcc and make are installed)

hi! this project is(was) linux-first, now windows support is being added https://github.com/hq9000/cython-vst-loader/issues/10

at the moment, In PyPI, only linux binaries are provided.

as for the mac, it's on the list.

I think you might try to checkout the original code and try to build that one. The aeffectx.h is coming from VSTSDK which is not included for licencing reasons. When the project is built (currently, for linux only, soon for windows as well) the SDK is downloaded from Steinberg's website.

...assuming you are in a 3.x venv:

git clone [email protected]:hq9000/cython-vst-loader.git
pip install -r requirements.txt
python setup.py build_ext --inplace

(this command will download the SDK that contains the header file in question and build the extension)

If you could attempt to do the steps above and provide the output, that would be cool.

Hi,

I tried what you suggested and it seems to be working. I haven't tested the module in my project yet.

macOS: 11.2.3

python: 3.8.2
