[solved]Audiere SoundEffect-Class Problem

[Lo_Ord]

Hi!

When I was trying to implement a sound-function for a machinegun today, I encountered a little problem:

Audiere uses the Soundeffect-Class, to let you play one sound multiple times, so it's perfect for a machine-gun. However, when I try to compile my program, I get an error message

Here's the code-snippet:

Code: Select all

SoundEffect *mg = OpenSoundEffect(this->audioDevice, "../media/mg.wav", MULTIPLE);

and here's the error-message:

error C2679: binary '=' : no operator found which takes a right-hand operand of type 'audiere::SoundEffectPtr' (or there is no acceptable conversion) c:\Misantrophy\SVN\source\AudiereManager.cpp

Every other audiere-function works fine, everything is included correctly, I only cannot use the Soundeffect-class

I also tried this (even if it should not be different from the code above):

Code: Select all

SoundEffectPtr mg(OpenSoundEffect(this->audioDevice, "../media/mg.wav", MULTIPLE);

Does anyone know what the problem could be?

I think you should search for an Audiere forum...

But the second parameter should not be a string, it's a referenz to a SampleSource...

So check the documentation or header file !!!

If you just want to play an audio file multiple time, why not just
just set it on loop. using ->OpenSound(... or setting your object audio
to ->SetRepeat(.. to true and issue ->Stop() on when your done.

I actually solved the problem, I was trying to safe the soundeffect in an OutputStream pointer, which of course cannot work. Still strange, that VS 2005 - error pointed at the creation of the SoundEffect... Thx anyway.

OpenSoundEffect is overloaded, you can use a string actually.

just set it on loop. using ->OpenSound(... or setting your object audio

That was my first try, but it then waits until the playing is finished and then starts again... This doesn't work for our machine gun, since we are using an Ak-47 sound with an echo at the end, so the file plays over one second. And an ak-47 with a sound-firerate of over 1 second is bad *g*
