This API has been deprecated. Use libcanberra or libcanberra-gtk instead.
This module provides wrapper functions for playing sound samples. Currently it just wraps the esound daemon, but the API is flexible enough that other sound infrastructures can be included in the future.
These functions also allow for the fact that no sound may be supported on the current platform. So applications can safely call these functions to play sounds and they will just quietly return if no action is possible.
void gnome_sound_init (const char *hostname);
gnome_sound_init is deprecated and should not be used in newly-written code.
Initialize the esd connection.
Deprecated: 2.30
|
Hostname where esd daemon resides. |
void gnome_sound_shutdown (void);
gnome_sound_shutdown is deprecated and should not be used in newly-written code.
Shuts down the gnome sound support.
Deprecated: 2.30
void gnome_sound_play (const char *filename);
gnome_sound_play is deprecated and should not be used in newly-written code.
Plays the audio stored in filename, if possible. Fail quietly if playing is
not possible (due to missing sound support or for other reasons).
Deprecated: 2.30: Use ca_context_play(), ca_gtk_play_for_widget() or ca_gtk_play_for_event() instead
|
File containing the sound sample. |
int gnome_sound_sample_load (const char *sample_name,const char *filename);
gnome_sound_sample_load is deprecated and should not be used in newly-written code.
Loads the audio from filename and load it into the canberra cache for later
playing. Programs will rarely want to call this function directly. Use
gnome_sound_play() instead for fire and forget sound playing.
|
The name of the sample. |
|
The filename where the audio is stored. |
Returns : |
-1 or -2
Deprecated: 2.30: Use ca_context_cache() or ca_context_cache_full() instead |
