another obstacle—arts
Hi all,
I checked the code yesterday and found that arts library we used in
Realclass to playback the audio was GPLed library. Out of question, we
should replace the arts library with others. I think SDL is a good
substitution, it is a LGPLed library, which provide perfect support for
multimedia. What do you think?
ps:oss was used to check the soundcard driver in Realclass,which is also a
GLPed library.But the code was small, Kevin and I tried to delete the "oss
code" and recompiled the project successfully. We tested the modified
system last night, nothing went wrong.
As far as I know, arts maybe the last obstacle, after we solve it, we can
release Realclass soon.
Best regards,
Arthur

hi, Arthur:
good job. i could work with you to replace arts with SDL. as to oss, i
think it does not matter, function of all the code segement is to check the
driver version. and since we've tested it and noting goes wrong. i guess we
could just drop oss.
i will build a new svn sever for you to make all the modification.
thanks.
regards,
Kevin

yes, we've tested that and nothing goes wrong. as to the comment, the only
function of the following code is to check version.
/* version check */
if (-1 == ioctl(dsp,OSS_GETVERSION,&i)) {
strcpy(driver_name,"OSS (version unknown)");
} else {
sprintf(driver_name,"OSS %d.%d.%d%c",
(i>>16) & 0xff,(i>>8) & 0xff,(i>>4) & 0xf,(i&0xf)+'a');
}

Hi Chen,
I hope SDL have the same API with ARTS.
If not, we will have to modify Realclass to use SDL.
ps:Did you test the communication last night?
