PACKAGE NAME
------------
neko_sdl_sound


DESCRIPTION
-----------
SDL_sound is a library that handles the decoding of several popular sound file formats, such as .WAV and .MP3. It is meant to make the programmer's sound playback tasks simpler. The programmer gives SDL_sound a filename, or feeds it data directly from one of many sources, and then reads the decoded waveform data back at her leisure. If resource constraints are a concern, SDL_sound can process sound data in programmer-specified blocks. Alternately, SDL_sound can decode a whole sound file and hand back a single pointer to the whole waveform. SDL_sound can also handle sample rate, audio format, and channel conversion on-the-fly and behind-the-scenes, if the programmer desires.

SOURCE/VERSION
--------------
SDL_sound-1.0.3 / 2


IRIX/MIPSPRO VERSION
--------------------
6.5.22m / 7.4.4m


ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
---------------------
setenv CC c99
setenv CFLAGS '-O2 -mips4 -n32'
setenv LDFLAGS '-L/usr/nekoware/lib'
setenv CPPFLAGS '-I/usr/nekoware/include'

for compiling on mips3 systems, use:

setenv CFLAGS '-O2 -mips3 -n32'


CONFIGURE
---------
patch -p0 < SDL_sound-1.0.3_irix.patch
./configure --prefix=/usr/nekoware


BUILD
-----
gmake
gmake install

gmake to build the package


ERRORS/MISCELLANEOUS
--------------------
The patch fixes the __EXPORT__ preprocessor macro define. This is used to expose functions in the .so library, but i haven't seen any problems when defining it empty.

I haven't compiled it against timidity, because it's quite a hefty prereq already...

This package has dual support for both mips3 and mips4 architecture, controlled by the mach(CPUARCH=R4000) switch for libraries and executables.
