Hi Christopher,

Thanks for the message.  I've removed the rogue printf statement (I think
it must been put their while debugging something) and checked it in.

The BuildDeviceList function tries to find out about your system's audio
input and output devices so that it can respond to queries about the
available playback and capture devices, and the calls to open a device.
In theory the list of capture devices (pointed to by g_pCaptureDeviceList)
should contain the name of the 'default capture device' as determined by
the function GetDefaultCaptureDeviceName - but for some reason that isn't
the case on your machine - hence the warning.

Greetings.

I decided to update to the latest SDK today (haven't touched my audio code
in a while) and I stumbled across an odd message sent to stdout (the
console) on application startup.  It reads:

  OPENA32DLL - Still didn't find exact match, picking first

It apparently originates from alc.cpp (the router) in the function ALvoid
BuildDeviceList ().  I'm not presently using a capture device (the message
pertains to finding the default capture device) so I've not noticed if it
indicates an error or not.  There is a similar search for the default
output
device, but without a message, so perhaps this one was an accidental
left-over from debugging.

Does this message indicate an error?  If so, what information should I
provide to help track the problem?

If not, I think the message should probably be removed. ;)

Thank you, and regards,
- Christopher Fitzgerald
