Querying for Available Devices</h2>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<blockquote>There are often several different audio devices available in
|
||
|
|
a computer with different capabilities. They can differ in the sample rates
|
||
|
|
supported, bit widths, etc. PortAudio provides a simple way to query for
|
||
|
|
the available devices, and then pass the selected device to Pa_OpenStream().
|
||
|
|
For an example, see the file "pa_tests/pa_devs.c".
|
||
|
|
<p>To determine the number of devices:
|
||
|
|
<blockquote>
|
||
|
|
<pre>numDevices = Pa_CountDevices();</pre>
|
||
|
|
</blockquote>
|
||
|
|
You can then query each device in turn by calling Pa_GetDeviceInfo() with
|
||
|
|
an index.
|
||
|
|
<blockquote>
|
||
|
|
<pre>for( i=0; i<numDevices; i++ ) {
|
||
|
|
pdi = Pa_GetDeviceInfo( i );</pre>
|
||
|
|
</blockquote>
|
||
|
|
It will return a pointer to a <tt>PaDeviceInfo</tt> structure which is
|
||
|
|
defined as:
|
||
|
|
<blockquote>
|
||
|
|
<pre>typedef struct{
|
||
|
|
int structVersion;
|
||
|
|
const char *name;
|
||
|
|
int maxInputChannels;
|
||
|
|
int maxOutputChannels;
|
||
|
|
/* Number of discrete rates, or -1 if range supported. */
|
||
|
|
int numSampleRates;
|
||
|
|
/* Array of supported sample rates, or {min,max} if range supported. */
|
||
|
|
const double *sampleRates;
|
||
|
|
PaSampleFormat nativeSampleFormat;
|
||
|
|
}PaDeviceInfo;</pre>
|
||
|
|
</blockquote>
|
||
|
|
If the device supports a continuous range of sample rates, then numSampleRates
|
||
|
|
will equal -1, and the sampleRates array will have two values, the minimum
|
||
|
|
and maximum rate.
|
||
|
|
<p>The device information is allocated by Pa_Initialize() and freed by
|
||
|
|
Pa_Terminate() so you do not have to free() the structure returned by Pa_GetDeviceInfo().</blockquote>
