[alsa-devel] snd_pcm_hw_params_get_xxx question

[Ben C]

Hello,

I'm trying to develop an external PCM plugin. I'm calling snd_pcm_hw_params_get_xxx functions to retrieve some values. I got everything to work as expected on alsa-lib 1.0.15. However the client's setup is 1.0.13, and I don't think they want to upgrade.

For 1.0.13, everything compiled and linked fine after some minor changes. But when I called say snd_pcm_hw_params_get_rate(hw, &val, &dir), I was expecting the return value to be a status, and val to contain "44100" which was the case for 1.0.15. However for 1.0.13, val is 0, but returned status = 44100?

I looked in the header files, and 1.0.13 seems to be the same as 1.0.15 in regards to this function. Am I accidentally using some sort of old API that was intended for backward compatibility? If so, what should I do to use the "new" API's?

Thanks,
Ben
