Detailed Description

A class representing a sound.

A sound is a highly platform dependent entity that is abstracted for use here. Very little manipulation of the sounds are possible.

The most common sound to use is the static function Beep() which emits the system standard "warning" or "attention" sound.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

PSound::PSound ( unsigned  numChannels = 1,
unsigned  sampleRate = 8000,
unsigned  bitsPerSample = 16,
PINDEX  bufferSize = 0,
const BYTE *  data = NULL 
)

Create a new sound, using the parameters provided.

It is expected that the "lowest common denominator" encoding, linear PCM, is used.

All other values for the encoding are platform dependent.

Parameters
numChannelsNumber of channels eg mono/stereo
sampleRateSamples per second
bitsPerSampleNumber of bits per sample
bufferSizeSize of data
dataPointer to initial data
PSound::PSound ( const PFilePath filename)

Create a new sound, reading from a platform dependent file.

Parameters
filenameSound file to load.

Member Function Documentation

static void PSound::Beep ( )
static

Play the "standard" warning beep for the platform.

unsigned PSound::GetChannels ( ) const
inline

Get the number of channels (mono/stereo) in the sound.

References numChannels.

unsigned PSound::GetEncoding ( ) const
inline

Get the current encoding.

A value of 0 indicates linear PCM, any other value is platform dependent.

References encoding.

DWORD PSound::GetErrorCode ( ) const
inline

Get the platform dependent error code from the last file load.

References dwLastError.

const void* PSound::GetFormatInfoData ( ) const
inline

Get pointer to the platform dependent format info.

References formatInfo.

PINDEX PSound::GetFormatInfoSize ( ) const
inline

Get the size of the platform dependent format info.

References formatInfo, and PContainer::GetSize().

unsigned PSound::GetSampleRate ( ) const
inline

Get the sample rate in samples per second.

References sampleRate.

unsigned PSound::GetSampleSize ( ) const
inline

Get the sample size in bits per sample.

References sampleSize.

PBoolean PSound::Load ( const PFilePath filename)

Load a platform dependent sound file (eg .WAV file for Win32) into the object.

Note the whole file must able to be loaded into memory.

Also note that not all possible files are playable by this library. No format conversions between file and driver are performed.

Returns
true if the sound is loaded successfully.
Parameters
filenameSound file to load.
PSound& PSound::operator= ( const PBYTEArray data)

Set new data bytes for the sound.

Parameters
dataNew data for sound
PBoolean PSound::Play ( )

Play the sound on the default sound device.

PBoolean PSound::Play ( const PString device)

Play the sound to the specified sound device.

static PBoolean PSound::PlayFile ( const PFilePath file,
PBoolean  wait = true 
)
static

Play a sound file to the default device.

If the wait parameter is true then the function does not return until the file has been played. If false then the sound play is begun asynchronously and the function returns immediately.

Returns
true if the sound is playing or has played.
Parameters
fileSound file to play.
waitFlag to play sound synchronously.
PBoolean PSound::Save ( const PFilePath filename)

Save a platform dependent sound file (eg .WAV file for Win32) from the object.

Returns
true if the sound is saved successfully.
Parameters
filenameSound file to load.
void PSound::SetFormat ( unsigned  numChannels,
unsigned  sampleRate,
unsigned  bitsPerSample 
)

Set the internal sound format to linear PCM at the specification in the parameters.

Parameters
numChannelsNumber of channels eg mono/stereo
sampleRateSamples per second
bitsPerSampleNumber of bits per sample
