AGetChannelGain(3X)

NAME

AGetChannelGain − get transaction channel gain

SYNOPSIS

#include <Alib.h> void
AGetChannelGain (

Audio ∗ audio,

ATransID xid,

AChType channel,

AGainDB ∗ gain_return,

long ∗ status_return );

DESCRIPTION

audio the Audio structure associated with this connection.

xid the transaction ID.

channel the type of channel: ACTMono, ACTLeft, or ACTRight.

gain_return receives the returned gain value (decimal value).

status_return receives the returned status of the operation, unless this parameter is passed in as a NULL pointer. If status_return is set to NULL, Alib will do the error handling.

STRUCTURES

The following is defined in /opt/audio/include/Alib.h:

typedef long ATransID; /* Type for transaction ID. */

ERRORS

If status_return is not set to NULL, it can return one of the following values:

0 AENoError No error - the call completed successfully.

2 AEBadAudio The audio structure is invalid. A pointer to a valid audio structure may be missing (use AOpenAudio() to get a valid pointer).

3 AEBadValue The channel parameter contains in incorrect value.

15 AEBadTransactionID The xid parameter does not identify a valid transaction ID.

EXAMPLE

The following example returns the transaction left channel gain value.

Audio ∗ audio; /∗ audio connection ∗/

AChType ∗ chtype; /∗ type of channel ∗/

AGainDB chgain_ret; /∗ transaction gain value∗/

long status; /∗ error status ∗/
.
.
.

/∗ get xid left channel gain ∗/

chtype = ACTLeft;

AGetChannelGain(audio, xid, chtype, &chgain_ret, &status);

NOTE

In order to ensure that the compiler finds the Audio Library (libAlib.sl) and the Alib.h header file, you must add the following switches:

-L /opt/audio/lib
-I/opt/audio/include

DEPENDENCIES

This function belongs to the Audio Library of functions that manage connections to an audio server. The audio server must run on a system that has audio hardware. To find out whether or not your system has audio hardware, refer to Using the Audio Developer’s Kit or the online help for the Audio control panel. For information about the audio capabilities of a particular system use the online example audioinfo.c.
