Detailed Description

This class reads a sound file via libsndfile.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

SndFileReader() [1/2]

SndFileReader::SndFileReader

(

const std::string &

filename

)

Creates a new reader.

Parameters

filename	The path to the file to be read.
stream	The index of the audio stream within the file if it contains multiple audio streams.

Exceptions

Exception

Thrown if the file specified does not exist or cannot be read with libsndfile.

SndFileReader() [2/2]

SndFileReader::SndFileReader

(

std::shared_ptr< Buffer >

buffer

)

Creates a new reader.

Parameters

buffer	The buffer to read from.
stream	The index of the audio stream within the file if it contains multiple audio streams.

Exceptions

Exception

Thrown if the buffer specified cannot be read with libsndfile.

Member Function Documentation

getLength()

virtual int SndFileReader::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 SndFileReader::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 SndFileReader::getSpecs ( ) const

virtual

Returns the specification of the reader.

Returns

The Specs structure.

Implements IReader.

isSeekable()

virtual bool SndFileReader::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.

queryStreams()

virtual std::vector< StreamInfo > SndFileReader::queryStreams ( )

virtual

Queries the streams of a sound file.

Returns

A vector with as many streams as there are in the file.

Exceptions

Exception

Thrown if the file specified cannot be read.

read()

virtual void SndFileReader::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 SndFileReader::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.
