Wifi AND/OR Ethernet

[infrafast]

Hello my device can connect either ethernet or wifi (esp32 + w5500)

My understanding is that the MIDI object are created statically by calling

APPLEMIDI_CREATE_INSTANCE

Is there a way to instanciate this dynamically using EthernetUDP in case the ethernet connection is establish and equally with WiFiUDP in case WiFI connection is made

Otherwise, I think I have to declare twice the interface which would consume a lot of memory.

APPLEMIDI_CREATE_INSTANCE(EthernetUDP, ETHMIDI, "AppleMIDI-Arduino", DEFAULT_CONTROL_PORT);
APPLEMIDI_CREATE_INSTANCE(WiFiUDP, WIFIMIDI, "AppleMIDI-Arduino", DEFAULT_CONTROL_PORT);

Any idea/thought or advise welcome :-)
Thanks

Question for related repo: Arduino-AppleMIDI

instanciate this dynamically

I did try this in the past, but dynamic object creation conflicts with the memory management of microcontrollers (the libs were created for Arduino's R3 with Ethernet shield). This library and Arduino-AppleMIDI are designed and build with no dynamic object creation or inheritance - avoiding a Stack crash.

That said, microcontrollers are getting bigger qua memory and cpu and OS capabilities, opening the door for dynamic allocation.

Go ahead and try, a report back - I'd love to learn from your experience

hello ok thanks, I'll make some test and report here when done
