[Openal] problems whit alc

[Daniel PEACOCK]

Hi,

In OpenAL 1.1 all the string functions were changed to use ALchar or
ALCchar instead of ALubyte and ALCubyte, so you just need to change the
type of your 'DeviceName' variable.   Also, "DirectSound3D" is an old name
(still supported for backwards compatibility); it has been replaced with
"Generic Hardware" (and "DirectSound" has been replaced with "Generic
Software").   You may also like to look at the Device Enumeration extension
so that you can find all of the available OpenAL devices on the system.
There is example code that shows how to do this in the Windows OpenAL SDK
available on Creative's Developer Website at

I have written these 3 lines:

ALCdevice* pDevice;

ALCubyte DeviceName[] = "DirectSound3D";

pDevice = alcOpenDevice(DeviceName);

The third line returns this error:
error C2664: 'alcOpenDevice' : cannot convert parameter 1 from 'unsigned
char [14]' to 'const char *'

What can I do?

Thanks!
