Hi Urs,

Sure, it should be possible. If you look at the AUPublic headers, ComponentBase.h in particular, there's the ComponentRegistrar class that will do exactly this for you. And the COMPONENT_REGISTER macro to make it easier. To go a little lower-level, the Component Manager has the RegisterComponent() and RegisterComponentResource() functions.

The only thing I'm not sure about is if when you register a component in your app, will it be made available in other processes?

Hi,

derived from the fact that the "real" API for AUs is that System stuff and the whole AUBase is there for convenience, I asked myself if an AudioUnit must be in a .component Bundle or could _any_ software register to the OS as an AudioUnit?

Would it be possible to have a standalone application, name it "FooAU.app" , that tells the System "Hi, I am here!" and when I launch an AU host to have FooAU.app provide AU functionality for the host?

If not, would it be possible to create an AU .component that gets loaded in a host but also talks to another app or would memory protection kill my idea before even thought more about it?

Cheers,

;) Urs
