Exceptions

exception Error of int

An error occured. In the future, this exception should be replaced by more * specific exceptions. Use string_of_error to get a description of the * error.

exception Unanticipated_host_error

An unanticipaced

val string_of_error : int -> string

Get a description of an error.

val get_last_host_error : unit -> int * string

Get the last errror which occured together with its description.

General

val get_version : unit -> int

Version of portaudio.

val get_version_string : unit -> string

Version of portaudio.

val init : unit -> unit

Initialize the portaudio library. Should be called before calling any other * function.

val terminate : unit -> unit

Stop using the library. This function should be called before ending the * program and no other portaudio function should be called after.

Streams

type ('a, 'b) sample_format

The abstract type ('a, 'b) sample_format describes the OCaml type 'a and the underlying C type 'b used to represent the data being written to or read from a stream. This type is compatible with ('a, 'b) Bigarray.kind.

val format_int8 : (int, Bigarray.int8_signed_elt) sample_format

See Portaudio.format_float32.

val format_int16 : (int, Bigarray.int16_signed_elt) sample_format

See Portaudio.format_float32.

val format_int24 : (int32, Bigarray.int32_elt) sample_format

See Portaudio.format_float32.

val format_int32 : (int32, Bigarray.int32_elt) sample_format

See Portaudio.format_float32.

val format_float32 : (float, Bigarray.float32_elt) sample_format

The stream uses floats in the range of -1.,1. to represent audio data. * The underlying type is a 32 bit float.

type ('a, 'b) stream_parameters = {

channels : int;
device : int;
sample_format : ('a, 'b) sample_format;
latency : float;

}

type stream_flag

type ('a, 'b, 'c, 'd) stream

type ('a, 'b, 'c, 'd) callback =
  ('a, 'b, Bigarray.c_layout) Bigarray.Genarray.t ->
  ('c, 'd, Bigarray.c_layout) Bigarray.Genarray.t ->
  int ->
  int

The function signature of a callback. Callbacks only work with interleaved streams.

val open_stream : 
  ('a, 'b) stream_parameters option ->
  ('c, 'd) stream_parameters option ->
  ?interleaved:bool ->
  float ->
  int ->
  ?callback:('a, 'b, 'c, 'd) callback ->
  stream_flag list ->
  ('a, 'b, 'c, 'd) stream

open_stream inparam outparam interleaved rate bufframes callback flags opens a new * stream with input stream of format inparam, output stream of format * outparam using interleaved or non-interleaved interleaved buffers * at rate samples per second, with bufframes frames per buffer * passed the callback function callback (0 means leave this choice to * portaudio).

val open_default_stream : 
  ?callback:('a, 'b, 'a, 'b) callback ->
  ?format:('a, 'b) sample_format ->
  ?interleaved:bool ->
  int ->
  int ->
  int ->
  int ->
  ('a, 'b, 'a, 'b) stream

open_default_stream callback format interleaved inchans outchans rate bufframes * opens default stream with callback as callback function, handling samples in * format format using interleaved or non-interleaved buffers interleaved with * inchans input channels and outchans output channels * at rate samples per seconds with handling buffers of size bufframes.

val close_stream : ('a, 'b, 'c, 'd) stream -> unit

Close a stream.

val start_stream : ('a, 'b, 'c, 'd) stream -> unit

Start a stream.

val stop_stream : ('a, 'b, 'c, 'd) stream -> unit

Stop a stream.

val abort_stream : ('a, 'b, 'c, 'd) stream -> unit

Abort a stream.

val sleep : int -> unit

Sleep.

val write_stream : 
  ('a, 'b, 'c, 'd) stream ->
  'c array array ->
  int ->
  int ->
  unit

Write to a stream.

val read_stream : 
  ('a, 'b, 'c, 'd) stream ->
  'a array array ->
  int ->
  int ->
  unit

Read from a stream.

val write_stream_ba : 
  ('a, 'b, 'c, 'd) stream ->
  ('c, 'd, Bigarray.c_layout) Bigarray.Genarray.t ->
  int ->
  int ->
  unit

Write to a stream using a bigarray.

val read_stream_ba : 
  ('a, 'b, 'c, 'd) stream ->
  ('a, 'b, Bigarray.c_layout) Bigarray.Genarray.t ->
  int ->
  int ->
  unit
