Why should you see it? You are not executing the fluidsynth executable. You are executing your own program which uses fluidsynth's API, i.e. libfluidsynth.dylib gets linked to build/exec during compilation. When executing exec, libfluidsynth.dylib gets loaded and exec becomes your "fluidsynth" instance. >From my understanding you just want to execute fluidsynth from a C program, which should be possible by doing something like:

char const * parmList[] = {"-a", "jack", NULL};
execv("/path/to/fluidsynth", parmList);

Hi

I am trying to create a new instance of fluidsynth from a C program -

#include "../fluidsynth-1.1.6/include/fluidsynth.h"

void fs_init(){

  printf("### Begin fs_init ### \r\n");
  fluid_settings_t* settings;
  fluid_synth_t* synth;
  fluid_audio_driver_t* adriver;
  settings = new_fluid_settings();

  /* Set the synthesizer settings, if necessary */
  printf("Creating new synth .. \r\n");
  synth = new_fluid_synth(settings);
  printf("Creating new audio driver.. \r\n");
  fluid_settings_setstr(settings, "audio.driver", "coreaudio");
  adriver = new_fluid_audio_driver(settings, synth);

}

My build instruction looks like -

$(CC) -o build/exec -g -Wall src/main.c /usr/local/lib/libfluidsynth.dylib -lm

The program builds fine, but I am not able to see an instance of fluidsynth being created in my processes. 

What would be the correct way to invoke fluidsynth from within another program? Is there a sample code/project available?
