OpenAL

[Jan-Nik]

Hi,


I need OpenAL to port some things to the Pandora, but isn't included in the SDK.


I found some old threads, but unfortunately I couldn't find a working .so file from there. Can someone help me or do I need to build OpenAL Soft?

 

[Linux-SWAT]

Maybe try the one i compiled for Slackware ?

OpenAL Soft is what I used for one of my ports, It's an easy compile with cmake or pndcmake(if your using sebt3's cross compiler).


If you have trouble doing this I could share the libraries and includes I generated.

you can get it from the word war vi pnd. Also includes header files in the include directory.

I will try it, thanks!

That would be nice

I could only find portaudio (don't know what that is though) header and library files. I downloaded this PND: http://repo.openpandora.org/?page=detail&app=wordwar-wordwarvi-14086

Oh, sorry. Then I might have confused the pnds... But as others said, openal and freealut can be downloaded and easily compiled with cmake.


Just extract, change to the directory and use pndcmake . if you are compiling in sebt3's or ivanovics toolchain or normal cmake . if you compile on the Pandora with cdevtools.


Here is the downloadlink: http://connect.creativelabs.com/openal/Downloads/Forms/AllItems.aspx


And if you still want them precompiled, let me know. I need to have a look, where I used them and post here, but as said, it is easy to compile them yourself and doesn't take long.

There are the headers and libs I used for KAMI RETRO.

Thanks Steven. I was planning to share this with Jan-Nik just got side tracked.

Linux-SWAT, I just tried your compiled library, it works great, but when I compile I get a warning saying "/usr/lib/libopenal.so: Unknown EABI object attribute 34" 

Anyone knows what that means? Do I need to worry about it? Sound plays fine in my test program and no complaints in terminal from running it.

 Found this, wich I have no idea what it means...

And this:

[mcobit]

It means that it is compiled for the same or compatible architecture but with a different toolchain/toolset.


If it still works, it's ok to use it.


Edit: openal should be available natively in zaxxon now. You should be able to get the headers from the pandora feed.

Thanks.

Heres a small code example for ease of getting up and running if anyone is interested, its not a clean source that makes sense, I copied the meat from a YouTube tutorial, but it works and is reasonably short and uncomplex.
