Detailed Description

When an object is instantiated, it is possible to determine if it is being created in pfft~ context in the new method.

In the new method (and only at this time), you can check the s_thing member of the t_symbol '__pfft~__'. If this is non-null, then you will have a pointer to a t_pfftpub struct.

t_pfftpub *pfft_parent = (t_pfftpub*) gensym("__pfft~__")->s_thing;
 
if (pfft_parent) {
    // in a pfft~ context
}
else {
    // not in a pfft~
}
