Ubuntu18.04 PulseAudio实战

1 前言

2 下载编译

具体构建过程参照官方文档：https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/PulseAudio/Documentation/Developer/PulseAudioFromGit/

2.1 下载代码

git clone git://anongit.freedesktop.org/pulseaudio/pulseaudio

2.2 编译

编译过程遇到太多错误了，见问题集，主要是依赖没有安装

meson build
ninja -C build
sudo ninja -C build install
sudo ldconfig

3 demo实践

PulseAudio对外api非常简单，基本就是和io操作一样：read，write，open…
pa_simple_new：创建到服务器的新连接。
pa_simple_read：从服务器读取一些数据。（阻塞）
pa_simple_write：向服务器写入一些数据。
pa_simple_free：关闭并释放与服务器的连接。
pa_simple_drain：等待守护进程播放所有已写入的数据。
pa_simple_flush：刷新播放或记录缓冲区。
pa_simple_get_latency：返回播放或记录延迟。
下面是官方demo：
