<h2>
Blocking Read/Write Functions</h2>
<blockquote>[Note: These functions are not part of the official PortAudio
API. They are simply built on top of PortAudio as an extra utility. Also
note that they are under evaluation and their definition may change.]
<p>There are two fundamentally different ways to design an audio API. One
is to use callback functions the way we have already shown. The callback
function operates under an interrupt or background thread This leaves the
foreground application free to do other things while the audio just runs
in the background. But this can sometimes be awkward.
<p>So we have provided an alternative technique that lets a program generate
audio in the foreground and then just write it to the audio stream as if
it was a file. If there is not enough room in the audio buffer for more
data, then the write function will just block until more room is available.
This can make it very easy to write an audio example. To use this tool,
you must add the files "pablio/pablio.c" and "pablio/ringbuffer.c" to your
project. You must also:
<blockquote>
<pre>#include "pablio.h"</pre>
</blockquote>
Here is a short excerpt of a program that opens a stream for input and
output. It then reads a block of samples from input, and writes them to
output, in a loop.&nbsp; The complete example can be found in "pablio/test_rw.c".
<blockquote>
<pre>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; #define SAMPLES_PER_FRAME&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; (2)
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; #define FRAMES_PER_BLOCK&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; (1024)
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; SAMPLE&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; samples[SAMPLES_PER_FRAME * FRAMES_PER_BLOCK];
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; PaError&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; err;
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; PABLIO_Stream&nbsp; *aStream;
/* Open simplified blocking I/O layer on top of PortAudio. */
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; err = OpenAudioStream( &amp;rwbl, SAMPLE_RATE, paFloat32,
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; (PABLIO_READ_WRITE | PABLIO_STEREO) );
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; if( err != paNoError ) goto error;
/* Process samples in the foreground. */
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; for( i=0; i&lt;(NUM_SECONDS * SAMPLE_RATE); i++ )
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; {
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; /* Read one block of data into sample array from audio input. */
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; ReadAudioStream( aStream, samples, FRAMES_PER_BLOCK );
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; /*
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; ** At this point you could process the data in samples array,
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; ** and write the result back to the same samples array.
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; */
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; /* Write that same frame of data to output. */
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; WriteAudioStream( aStream, samples, FRAMES_PER_BLOCK );
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; }
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; CloseAudioStream( aStream );</pre>
