Hi everyone,
Been working on overhauling the sfront audio driver API, so that
it can handle callback-style soundcard API's in a graceful way, see:
http://www.cs.berkeley.edu/~lazzaro/sa/sfnew/devel/adriver/index.html
to get a sense of where the audio driver API is going (note
this doesn't describe the current sfront version, but an upcoming one).
To test the new API, I added a PortAudio (www.portaudio.com)
driver to the upcoming platform, with both Windows MultiMedia Extensions
API (i.e. WMME or WAVE) and DirectSound platform support. Since I
don't run Windows myself, I can't do full testing, thus this email --
this file:
http://www.cs.berkeley.edu/~lazzaro/files/wintest/simple.zip
Contains two small C files produced by sfront, one foe WMME and
one for DSound, that should play a simple sine-wave beep. The archive
includes a README describing how to run the test. If a few people could
download the test and let me know how it works, this would be great --
if all goes well, I'll proceed to make up a few more complicated tests,
and then expect the next sfront release to include PortAudio Windows
support ...
