I agree, I don't think that the library should be printing anything at all (except for temporary debugging assert's or things like that, I guess - maybe this is just debugging code that will go away soon). The library should interact with the user through the error messages it returns from the api calls. -- Fernando ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/alsa-devel
