Hey All,
Just wondering what the reasoning is behind snd_pcm_writen not having a constant variable for bufs. To me, this doesn't make sense. Does snd_pcm_writen make any alterations to bufs? I would expect one of the following declaration:
// Better, but doesn't promise that the API won't change the channel pointers. snd_pcm_sframes_t snd_pcm_writen(snd_pcm_t* pcm, const void** bufs, snd_pcm_uframes_t size); // Best, promises ALSA won't change channel pointers, wont change underlying data. snd_pcm_sframes_t snd_pcm_writen(snd_pcm_t* pcm, const void*const* bufs, snd_pcm_uframes_t size);
For now, is it safe to assume that snd_pcm_writen() doesn't alter any of the data in bufs passed into it? Any chance on seeing this patched or is there some reason for this?
Thanks, - Trent Reed
