As Aldrin pointed out, it is not meant to be parsed. I have now provided
separate functions for accessing the function names directly.

"alsa::pcm::pcm: snd_pcm_open failed: No such file or directory" is
useful for debugging, "No such file or directory" is not. Therefore, I
don't see why you want only snd_strerror in that message.

I have removed the default arguments, as you requested.

I have looked at the issue again; the current system (load current if
possible, any otherwise) is to make it resemble the API that sw_config
provides (always loading the current settings). If the user specifically
wants current or any settings (and wants an exception if that fails), he
may call the any() and current() functions after first constructing the
object. If not, he will get the most sensible default behavior.
However, I changed to catch to only match alsa::error (not that it
matters, but it's clearer that way).

The documentation says that an invalid snd_pcm_hw_params_t is allocated
(by snd_pcm_hw_params_malloc). I did not look into ALSA source code to
find out whether this means uninitialized memory or just a kind of
"none" configuration space that could still be used by the other
functions. In the latter case, removing the initialization from
hw_config constructor, and having the user explicitly call any() or
current(), would be a sensible choice.
In this case it would be nice if this behavior was also clearly
documented on the C API.

Ah, didn't think of that. Fixed to work this way, safe commit function
provided.

One could try to commit more than the original number with the old
wrapper, but this is fixed now (among with the commit function).

Just to stay safe, I made it throw std::logic_error if any access is
attempted after commit.

This differs from the naming convention used in other parts of the
wrapper (take a part of the C API function name). It seems pretty
obvious what an object called mmap does on a PCM, so I don't quite see
why you want another name for it.

I don't see why they couldn't coexist in the same header. C++
programmers are used to some flexibility (things happening
automatically, function overloading, default arguments, "OOP" syntax),
so it seems normal to offer these in such a wrapper.
However, I don't intend alsa.hpp, as it is now, as an easy solution for
the user, but have instead written a separate audio library on top of
it, abstracting many of the features of ALSA and also supporting other
audio interfaces under the hood.

True. The problem is that it is a lot of work, even with all those
macros. Without helper macros one would need thousands of lines just to
wrap all the functions.
Any help is appreciated, of course :)

I have fixed this. Now it prints the calling function, the C API
function and the snd_strerror message. All can be requested as
individual strings to order having to parse the formatted message
returned by what().

This does not allow storing the generated configuration, which is a
requirement if we want to add some control logic to it instead of just
setting things blindly. (remember, hw_config is noncopyable because it
depends on a PCM, which is noncopyable)

Even the "any" configuration is always linked to a PCM:
int snd_pcm_hw_params_any(snd_pcm_t *pcm, snd_pcm_hw_params_t *params);
A new version is attached.
Changelog for alsa.hpp 0.6:
- alsa::mmap completely rewritten
- alsa::error now has accessors for function names
- ALSA_CHECKED and alsa::error changed to also store the name of the
function using the macro
- alsa::pcm device and stream default values removed
- catching errors only, instead of any runtime_error
- added missing *_param operator=(*_param...)
- naming style changed: member variables now use m_ prefix to avoid
shadowing warnings from GCC -Wshadow
- other compile warnings eliminated as well (-Weffc++ etc)
- documentation updates

@brief An experimental low-level C++ API to ALSA.
@version 0.6
@author Lasse Kärkkäinen <tronic>
@license GNU LGPL 2.1 or later
This is a header-only C++ wrapper for the ALSA library. This means that you do
not need to add any new binary files to your build and you will only need to
link with -lasound, as if you were using the C API directly. GCC will probably
optimize all of the wrapper overhead away in any case, leaving you with a safer
and easier API to ALSA, but leaving your binaries just as if you had used C.
The library is designed to be very closely related to the C API, so that you
can still see what is going on under the hood, and also so that porting existing
applications to it is trivial. The interoperatibility between C and C++ APIs is
a major design goal. What this means is that you can freely mix C and C++ API
calls with no problems.
Usage example:
alsa::pcm alsa_pcm("default", SND_PCM_STREAM_PLAYBACK); // Create a PCM object
The above creates an equivalent for the snd_pcm_t*, which is what you need to
play or record anything. Make sure that the alsa_pcm object stays alive as long
as you need it (and preferrably not longer) by putting it inside a suitable
class or even inside the main() function. The object cannot be copied, but you
can pass references to it to other objects or functions.
The alsa_pcm also automatically converts into snd_pcm_t* as required, so you can
use it as an argument for the C API functions.
Next you'll need to configure it:
unsigned int rate = 44100;
unsigned int period;
alsa::hw_config(alsa_pcm) // Create a new config space
.set(SND_PCM_ACCESS_RW_INTERLEAVED)
.set(SND_PCM_FORMAT_S16_LE)
.rate_near(rate)
.channels(1)
.period_size_first(period) // Get the smallest available period size
.commit(); // Apply the config to the PCM
alsa::hw_config(pcm) constructs a new config space, using the current settings
from the PCM, if available, or the "any" space, if not set yet. The any space
contains all available hardware configurations and you have to narrow it down
to exactly one option by setting some parameters. Trying to narrow it too much
(by asking an amount of channels that is not available, for example) causes a
failure.
In case of failure, an alsa::error is thrown. When this happens, the commit part
never gets executed and thus the result is not stored to alsa_pcm and the
failed operation will have no effect (even to the temporary hw_config object,
which gets destroyed when the exception flies). However, all the operations
already performed successfully remain in effect.
The rate_near functions behaves like the C API *_near functions
do: they take the preferred value as an argument and then they modify the
argument, returning the actual rate. For example, if your sound card only
supports 48000 Hz, rate will be set to that on that call, even if some later
part, such as setting the number of channels, fails.
In the example above, a temporary object of type alsa::hw_config was used, but
you can also create a variable of it, should you need to test something in
between, or if you want to call the C API functions directly (hw_config
converts automatically into hw_params, which converts into snd_hw_params_t*).
For this, you may use a block like this:
{
alsa::hw_config hw(alsa_pcm);
hw.set(SND_ACCESS_(SND_PCM_ACCESS_MMAP_INTERLEAVED);
hw.set(SND_PCM_FORMAT_FLOAT_BE);
if (!snd_pcm_hw_params_is_full_duplex(hw)) hw.channels(2);
hw.commit();
}
(anyone got a better example?)
Software configuration works in the same way, using alsa::sw_config, just the
parameters to be adjusted are different.
When constructed, both sw_config and hw_config try to load config from the given
PCM. If that fails, sw_config throws, but hw_config still tries loading the any
space. Alternatively, you may supply a snd_pcm_hw/sw_params_t const* as a second
argument for the constructor to get a copy of the contents of that that instead.
The contents may be loaded (overwrites the old contents) with these functions:
.any() Get the "any" configuration (hw_config only)
.current() Get the currently active configuration from PCM
Once finished with the changes, you should call:
.commit() Store current config space to the PCM
For enum values SND_PCM_*, you may use the following functions:
.get(var) Get the current setting into the given variable
.set(val) Set the value requested (also supports masks)
.enum_test(val) The same as .set, except that it does not set anything
.enum_first(var) Set the first available option, store the selection in var
.enum_last(var) Set the last available option, store the selection in var
The parameter to manipulate is chosen based on the argument type. The enum_*
functions and masks are only available for hardware parameters, not for
sw_param.
For integer values (times, sizes, counts), these functions are available:
.get_X(var) Get the current setting into the given variable
.X(val) Set the value requested
For ranges, the following can also be used:
.get_X_min(var) Get the smallest available value into var
.get_X_max(var) Get the largest available value into var
.X_min(var) Remove all values smaller than var and store the new
smallest value into var.
.X_max(var) Remove all values larger than var, store new max in var.
.X_minmax(v1, v2) Limit to [v1, v2], store new range in v1, v2.
.X_near(var) Set the closest available value and store it in var
.X_first(var) Set the first available option, store the selection in var
.X_last(var) Set the last available option, store the selection in var
For booleans, these functions are available:
.get_X(var) Get the current setting (var must be unsigned int or bool)
.set_X(val) Set the value (val can be anything that converts into bool)
Replace X with the name of the parameter that you want to set. Consult the ALSA
C library reference for available options. All functions that modify their
arguments require the same type as is used in the C API (often unsigned int or
snd_pcm_uframes_t). The only exception is with bool types, where both bool and
unsigned int are accepted.
For those ranged parameters that support the dir argument (see ALSA docs), the
default value is always 0 when writing and NULL (none) when reading. You may
supply the preferred dir value or variable as the second argument and then the
value will be used or the result will be stored in the variable supplied.
For example, the following calls are equivalent:
snd_pcm_hw_params_set_format(pcm, hw, SND_PCM_FORMAT_FLOAT_LE)
<=> hw.set(SND_PCM_FORMAT_FLOAT_LE)
snd_pcm_hw_params_set_rate_resample(pcm, hw, 1) <=> hw.rate_resample(true)
snd_pcm_hw_params_set_channels_near(pcm, hw, &num) <=> hw.channels_near(num)
snd_pcm_hw_params_get_rate(hw, &rate, NULL) <=> hw.get_rate(rate)
snd_pcm_hw_params_get_rate(hw, &rate, &dir) <=> hw.get_rate(rate, dir)
... except for the fact that the C++ versions also check the return values and
throw alsa::error if anything goes wrong. This inherts from std::runtime_error
and thus eventually from std::exception, so you can catch pretty much everything
by catching that somewhere in your code:
try {
// do everything here
} catch (std::exception& e) {
std::cerr << "FATAL ERROR: " << e.what() << std::endl;
}
If you need to know the error code, the ALSA C function name or the C++ function
within which the error originated, you may call e.code(), e.cfunc() or e.func()
after catching alsa::error& e. If you just want a developer-readable error
message that contains all this information, use e.what().
Please note that some programming errors (using the wrapper incorrectly) are
detected and handled within the C++ API. In this case std::logic_error or
something derived from it is thrown instead of the custom exceptions.
When you call the C API functions directly, the ALSA_CHECKED macro may prove to
be useful. It is used internally by the library for testing errors and throwing
exceptions when calling the C functions. It will throw alsa::error with a
description of the error if the function returns a negative value.
The macro is well-behaving, as it only calls an internal helper function,
evaluating the arguments given exactly once. The return value can also still be
used (will return only >= 0):
Usage: ALSA_CHECKED(snd_pcm_whatever, (arg1, arg2, arg2));
Note: a comma between function name and arguments.
MMAP transfers can be done with the alsa::mmap RAII wrapper.
Usage:
// First we need to call avail_update (storing the return value is optional)
snd_pcm_uframes_t count = ALSA_CHECKED(snd_pcm_avail_update, (pcm));
alsa::mmap mmap(pcm, 256) // Begin MMAP transfer, request 256 frames
// Process the audio (mmap.frames() frames of it, accessible via mmap.area(n),
// starting at offset mmap.offset())
mmap.commit(); // If you used less than mmap.frames() frames, commit(n) instead
// You may not use the mmap object after the commit. The transfer is terminated
// properly (by commiting 0 frames w/o error handling) if no commit is done
// before the object goes out of scope.
In case you really want to get low-level, alsa::hw_params and alsa::sw_params
are offered. These only contain the corresponding snd_pcm_*_params_t, but they
allocate and free memory automatically and they can also properly copy the
struct contents when they get copied. Be aware that the structure contents are
not initialized during construction, so you have to initialize it yourself (just
like with the C API). They are used internally by hw_config and sw_config and
normally it should be better to use these instead of dealing directly with the
params.
