Hi,
I'm trying to familiarize myself with the Control API (userland
programs). I'm somewhat scared about the huge amount of API functions...
I hammered some code together but i'm not very sure if i'm doing it
right. If anyone can comment about this concept code, would be nice.
What i intend to do:
1) Gain access to a control with numeric ID "CTRL_HRTF".
2) Read some info (value limits and such).
3) Write 6 (upto 112) integer values into that control.
The commented code (//) are things that i believe are not needed.
void test() {
int i;
snd_kcontrol_t *ctlp;
/* Open the control. Is this really needed ? */
if ((err = snd_ctl_open(&ctlp, "3d_hrtf", SND_CTL_ASYNC)) != 0) {
fprintf (stderr, "3D CTL failed: (%s)\n", snd_strerror (err));
exit(1);
}
/* Retrieve some ifno to check if anything is as expected. */
snd_ctl_elem_info_t *info;
snd_ctl_card_info_alloca(info)
/* Setup info struct. */
//snd_ctl_elem_info_set_id(info, const snd_ctl_elem_id_t *ptr);
snd_ctl_elem_info_set_numid(info, CTRL_HRTF);
snd_ctl_elem_info_set_interface(info, snd_ctl_elem_iface_t val);
snd_ctl_elem_info_set_device(info, 0);
snd_ctl_elem_info_set_subdevice(info, 2);
//snd_ctl_elem_info_set_name(info, const char *val);
/* Get info field 0. */
snd_ctl_elem_info_set_index(info, 0);
if ((err = snd_ctl_elem_info(ctlp, info)) != 0) {
fprintf (stderr, "3D CTL failed: (%s)\n", snd_strerror (err));
exit(1);
}
snd_ctl_elem_info_free(info);
/* Declare and setup ctl_elem_value struct. */
snd_ctl_elem_value_t *ctl_val;
snd_ctl_elem_value_alloca(ctl_val);
//snd_ctl_elem_value_set_id(ctl_val, const snd_ctl_elem_id_t *ptr);
snd_ctl_elem_value_set_numid(ctl_val, CTRL_HRTF /* Some const defined
elsewhere. */);
snd_ctl_elem_value_set_interface(ctl_val, SNDRV_CTL_ELEM_IFACE_PCM);
snd_ctl_elem_value_set_device(ctl_val, 0);
snd_ctl_elem_value_set_subdevice(ctl_val, 2);
//snd_ctl_elem_value_set_name(ctl_val, const char *val);
/* Write values. */
for (i=0; i<6; i++) {
snd_ctl_elem_value_set_index(ctl_val, i);
snd_ctl_elem_value_alloca(ctl_val);
snd_ctl_elem_value_set_integer(ctl_val, unsigned int idx, long val);
}
/* Dispatch ctl write to soundcard. */
if ((err = snd_ctl_elem_write(ctlp, &control)) != 0) {
fprintf (stderr, "3D CTL failed: (%s)\n", snd_strerror (err));
exit(1);
}
snd_ctl_elem_value_free(ctl_val);
}
Thank you very much.
