So, first a framework has to be created so that external plugins can be added the same way one would add PCM or control type plugins. It might sound a little naive but I am not familiar with the framework part of it, but it looks interesting. 1. I think for finding out what the plugin framework would consists of I need to have a look at alsa-lib and modify it too, is it correct?. If such a framework is created then will the control flow look like this: amidi/aplaymidi ->alsa-lib with midi plugin framework->my_midi_plugin Can you point me to some code/doc etc which might serve as start point, basically how do I go about adding such a framework and finally, how user is going to use it with newly added plugin? (i.e. for pcm io type plugin we use #aplay -D my_plugin test.wav, will it be similar for midi plugin also?) -Pharaoh. _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list Alsa-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.alsa-project.org/mailman/listinfo/alsa-devel
