Detailed Description

This class represents a reader for a sound that can sound different depending on its realtive position with the listener.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

BinauralReader()

BinauralReader::BinauralReader	(	std::shared_ptr< IReader >	reader,
		std::shared_ptr< HRTF >	hrtfs,
		std::shared_ptr< Source >	source,
		std::shared_ptr< ThreadPool >	threadPool,
		std::shared_ptr< FFTPlan >	plan )

Creates a new convolver reader.

Parameters

reader	A reader of the input sound to be assigned to this reader. It must have one channel.
hrtfs	A shared pointer to an HRTF object that will be used to get a particular impulse response depending on the source.
source	A shared pointer to a Source object that will be used to change the source position of the sound.
threadPool	A shared pointer to a ThreadPool object with 1 or more threads.
plan	A shared pointer to and FFT plan that will be used for convolution.

Exceptions

Exception

thrown if the specs of the HRTFs and the sound don't match or if the provided HRTF object is empty.

Member Function Documentation

getLength()

virtual int BinauralReader::getLength ( ) const

virtual

Returns an approximated length of the source in samples.

Returns

The length as sample count. May be negative if unknown.

Implements IReader.

getPosition()

virtual int BinauralReader::getPosition ( ) const

virtual

Returns the position of the source as a sample count value.

Returns

The current position in the source. A negative value indicates that the position is unknown.

Warning

The value returned doesn't always have to be correct for readers, especially after seeking.

Implements IReader.

getSpecs()

virtual Specs BinauralReader::getSpecs ( ) const

virtual

Returns the specification of the reader.

Returns

The Specs structure.

Implements IReader.

isSeekable()

virtual bool BinauralReader::isSeekable ( ) const

virtual

Tells whether the source provides seeking functionality or not.

Warning

This doesn't mean that the seeking always has to succeed.

Returns

Always returns true for readers of buffering types.

Implements IReader.

read()

virtual void BinauralReader::read ( int & length, bool & eos, sample_t * buffer )

virtual

Request to read the next length samples out of the source.

The buffer supplied has the needed size.

Parameters

[in,out]	length	The count of samples that should be read. Shall contain the real count of samples after reading, in case there were only fewer samples available. A smaller value also indicates the end of the reader.
[out]	eos	End of stream, whether the end is reached or not.
[in]	buffer	The pointer to the buffer to read into.

Implements IReader.

seek()

virtual void BinauralReader::seek ( int position )

virtual

Seeks to a specific position in the source.

Parameters

position

The position to seek for measured in samples. To get from a given time to the samples you simply have to multiply the time value in seconds with the sample rate of the reader.

Warning

This may work or not, depending on the actual reader.

Implements IReader.
