Detailed Description

This device plays nothing.

It is similar to the linux device /dev/null.

Member Function Documentation

getSpecs()

virtual DeviceSpecs NULLDevice::getSpecs ( ) const

virtual

Returns the specification of the device.

Implements IDevice.

getSynchronizer()

virtual ISynchronizer * NULLDevice::getSynchronizer ( )

virtual

Retrieves the synchronizer for this device, which enables accurate synchronization between audio playback and video playback for example.

Returns

The synchronizer which will be the DefaultSynchronizer if synchonization is not supported.

Implements IDevice.

getVolume()

virtual float NULLDevice::getVolume ( ) const

virtual

Retrieves the overall device volume.

Returns

The overall device volume.

Implements IDevice.

lock()

virtual void NULLDevice::lock ( )

virtual

Locks the device.

Used to make sure that between lock and unlock, no buffers are read, so that it is possible to start, resume, pause, stop or seek several playback handles simultaneously.

Warning

Make sure the locking time is as small as possible to avoid playback delays that result in unexpected noise and cracks.

Implements IDevice.

play() [1/2]

virtual std::shared_ptr< IHandle > NULLDevice::play ( std::shared_ptr< IReader > reader, bool keep = false )

virtual

Plays a sound source.

Parameters

reader	The reader to play.
keep	When keep is true the sound source will not be deleted but set to paused when its end has been reached.

Returns

Returns a handle with which the playback can be controlled. This is nullptr if the sound couldn't be played back.

Exceptions

Exception

Thrown if there's an unexpected (from the device side) error during creation of the reader.

Implements IDevice.

play() [2/2]

virtual std::shared_ptr< IHandle > NULLDevice::play ( std::shared_ptr< ISound > sound, bool keep = false )

virtual

Plays a sound source.

Parameters

sound	The sound to create the reader for the sound source.
keep	When keep is true the sound source will not be deleted but set to paused when its end has been reached.

Returns

Returns a handle with which the playback can be controlled. This is nullptr if the sound couldn't be played back.

Exceptions

Exception

Thrown if there's an unexpected (from the device side) error during creation of the reader.

Implements IDevice.

setVolume()

virtual void NULLDevice::setVolume ( float volume )

virtual

Sets the overall device volume.

Parameters

volume

The overall device volume.

Implements IDevice.

stopAll()

virtual void NULLDevice::stopAll ( )

virtual

Stops all playing sounds.

Implements IDevice.

unlock()

virtual void NULLDevice::unlock ( )

virtual

Unlocks the previously locked device.

Implements IDevice.
