Re: [alsa-devel] Listing raw midi devices "The Right Way"?

I already found a code example that reads raw midi packages form a specified device but I need to have a complete list of ALL raw midi capable devices and ports on the system.
What is the "Right Way" for an app to build such a list?
See the source code of amidi.
You probably should be using the sequencer instead of the raw MIDI interface, in which case look at the source code of arecordmidi.

I'm not sure if sequencer is to high level, all i need is a way to capture all incoming midi events which then will be placed in an existing database system.
Currently in OS X and in windows I have a callback that reads each midi event for each port as a list of 3 bytes which are then added to a C++ STL vector for later processing.
How could something similar be done with alsa?

If you actually want to get the raw MIDI bytes, using the raw MIDI interface is The Right Way.
