Now, I have to support rawmidi interface also. Is it possible to write a userspace plugin for making MIDI work? Where can I get sample code etc?
It's possible, but so far, no external plugin framework is implemented for rawmidi. The external plugins are available only for PCM and control APIs. I guess it'd be relatively easy to add the external rawmidi plugins, though.
Another possibility is to write an ALSA sequencer client, and load snd-virmidi driver. Then you can connect to a rawmidi device as you like.
Thanks Takashi, I am not sure I understood this fully..Can you point me to
some sample code or relevant documentation.
