Any chance that your program could take an arg to investigate
other cards (or perhaps plugins) and also return an errno so
it could be used in scripts ?
Only if you promise to never drop CCs again (although I don't know about
plugins).
# gcc -W -Wall -o snd_rate snd_rate.c -l asound
snd_rate.c: In function 'main':
snd_rate.c:14: warning: the address of ‘params’ will always evaluate as 'true'
That's the ALSA snd_pcm_hw_params_alloca(). No such warning here, but I've
made it a regular malloc.
# snd_rate
snd_pcm_open: Device or resource busy
In fact, why isn't there a single simple "alsainfo" type
program that tells a user some (or a lot) of info about
their hardware and alsa-lib install ?
I guess because noone wrote one :-)
It seems by the way that dir != 0 _can_ be returned for hw devices, and this
just ignores it. Just some rounding issue I guess.
