Pluginval errors

Developer VST 3 SDK
1

Hello guys,

I am developing a VST3 plugin and when testing it with pluginval I get a set of errors (12). I tracked down the cause for the errors, which turned out to be a few routines updating the plugin interface, depending on changes in parameters in the DAW.

I have a suspicion Pluginval’s criteria for reporting these errors may be if they could cause glitches in the audio stream through the plugin? Here’s my question:

Is the DAW and the plugin sync’ed in such a way that if there is a glitch in the plugin, the DAW will “hiccup” as well?

What are the errors?

These are the errors:
