It runs plugins from the command line with +no user interaction, is light enough to run in valgrind, and is capable of +dumping all communication between the plugin and its UI in a human readable +format. + +To make it simple to test plugins in hosts that use different toolkits, there +are several Jalv executables: jalv, jalv.gtk, jalv.gtkmm, and jalv.qt. + + -- David Robillard <d@drobilla.net> |
