vst | vst plugin hosting external for Pure Data | Plugin library

I'm currently working with the JUCE Framework to create an audio VST plugin to get to grips and learn, but just want to clarify some basic stuff relating to classes.

in my header file, i have a class EQPLUGProcessor and inside that class i call static juce::AudioProcessorValueTreeState::ParameterLayout createParameterLayout();

When i call the function createParameterLayout() in my .cpp i have to write juce::AudioProcessorValueTreeState::ParameterLayout EQPLUGAudioProcessor::createParameterLayout(){}

My question is, why do i have to include the juce::AudioProcessorValueTreeState::ParameterLayout before the actual scope that the function is in ( EQPLUGAudioProcessor)? Surely i should be telling the compiler to look in the EQPLUGAudioProcessor and thats it?

I get that EQPLUGAudioProcessor is the class which its all inside, but still cant seem to understand when, where and why i'd need to clarify the classes that the function comes from again in the .cpp?

Let me know if this requires clarification.

I am trying to make a FXB file previewer (VST preset banks for those who don't know) for Sylenth1 banks. I have encoded the FXB as an ASCII string and had it print to the console. The preset names show up fine. My issue is that the parameters for the oscillators, filters and effects are encoded as random characters (mainly "?" and fairly big spaces).

Underlined in red: file header (?)

Underlined in blue: preset name (which I want to keep)

Underlined in yellow: osc/FX/filter parameters (which I want to discard from the string)

Here's the code I wrote:

string = "M/s Indian Tobacco Co. pvt. ltd., Godfrey Philips, VST Industries",

'''if starting word is M/s then it will devide it three part as end" ," character '''

I am trying obs-studio-node.
This module require libobs as dependency. While building this module it download a pre-built version of libobs if none is specified. We can specify out custom libobs as mentioned in README.md

I followed these steps to build libobs. These steps are listed in README.md

1. git clone https://github.com/stream-labs/obs-studio
2. cd obs-studio
3. git submodule update --init --recursive
4. mkdir build
5. cd build
6. cmake .. -DENABLE_UI=false -DDepsPath="C:\Users\alokm\Downloads\dependencies2019\win64" -DENABLE_SCRIPTING=false -G"Visual Studio 16 2019" -A x64
7. cmake --build .
8. cpack -G ZIP

Last step (cpack -G ZIP) is failing with errors

I've been trying to learn Python and created a little program that asks for a budget and recommends instruments I can't figure out how to solve this problem saying "NameError: name 'instrument is not defined". I am almost sure it happens because I've put instrument_choice function there, without it, it was working.

Here's my code:

I'm trying to understand Steinberg's VST SDK.

What's the use of this:

I have 2 txt files being read by Pandas.

The first file contains:

I am looking for a way to write an audio plugin using Qt. Audio plugins usually are dynamic libraries, not applications (http://teragonaudio.com/article/How-to-make-VST-plugins-in-Visual-Studio.html). While searching, I found on the audio forum contains the post QT etc for vst UI:

QtQuick/QML is perfect for any GUI development, including plugins. The only downside is that the payload is big (size of deployment). But that's really just the installation size and none of it affects performance. There are numerous ways to inject QtQuick scene graph to a window and not all of them are tied to or limited by the QApplication fake singleton. Gluing generic C++/Boost to Qml is made simple and thread-safe and Qt Quick scene graph itself runs mostly on GPU.

It's really just best to avoid all the QApplication and old Qt graphics framework techniques. They were good for maybe KDE and embedded systems (dentists chairs) ten years a go. QML made all that obsolete. For KDE also by the way.

Are these statements correct?
How can one use Qml and Qt Quck without QApplication in a c++ project? Can I use qtbase module in such a project?

I'm verifying a c program that uses arrays to store heterogeneous data - in particular, the program uses arrays to implement cons cells, where the first element of the array is an integer value, and the second element is a pointer to the next cons cell.

For example, the free operation for this list would be:
