Just to add: (yes I know I didn't free the hwparams structure, but it is done in the rest of the code I cut) the "speaker" device is virtual, generated with dmix on asound.conf: pcm.pcm1774 { type hw card 0 } ctl.pcm1774 { type hw card 0 } pcm.buzzer { type dshare ipc_key 6678293 ipc_key_add_uid yes slave { pcm "hw:0,0" buffer_size 16384 period_time 2 period_size 1024 } bindings { 0 0 } } pcm.speaker { type dshare ipc_key 6678293 ipc_key_add_uid yes slave { pcm "hw:0,0" buffer_size 16384 period_time 2 period_size 1024 } bindings { 0 1 } } Fortini Matteo ha scritto: > Hi, > I'm experiencing a very strange behavior. > > I'm using alsa 1.0.18 on a powerpc platform. > > If I run the following simple code from the main of a .c file, it works > perfectly, but if I put into a shared .so library (libaudio.so), then I > link the main with -laudio -lasound, then the hwparams structure is not > filled with anything, while the alsa functions don't return any error. > > Do you have any clue why this could happen? > > TIA > > ############################################################ > int play_sample(char *pcm_name, char *samplename) > { > int res; > snd_pcm_t *pcm_handle; > snd_pcm_hw_params_t *hwparams; > const char *name= (pcm_name != NULL) ? pcm_name : "speaker"; > > if ( (res = snd_pcm_open(&pcm_handle, name, SND_PCM_STREAM_PLAYBACK, > 0)) < 0) { > fprintf(stderr, "Error opening PCM device %s\n", pcm_name); > return 1; > } else { > printf ("snd_pcm_open returned %d\n", res); > } > > > snd_pcm_hw_params_malloc(&hwparams); > if (snd_pcm_hw_params_any(pcm_handle, hwparams) < 0) { > fprintf(stderr, "Can not configure this PCM device.\n"); > return 1; > > snd_pcm_close(pcm_handle); > } > > > int main (void) > { > play_sample (NULL, "test_sound.wav); > > return 0; > } > ############################################################ > _______________________________________________ > Alsa-devel mailing list > Alsa-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > http://mailman.alsa-project.org/mailman/listinfo/alsa-devel > > _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list Alsa-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.alsa-project.org/mailman/listinfo/alsa-devel
