After experimenting with OpenAL static sound i wanted to move further to 3d
sound, effects.
So i opened the Effect extension.pdf that comes with Openal and started
reading but i got stuck on tutorial 1(Initializing the effect extension).
I did not understand most of the parts(the red words in the code are the
ones i don't understand)...
Trying my hard to understand i was able to put this code together :
#include <stdio.h>
> #include <al.h>
> #include <alc.h>
> #include <iostream>
> using namespace std;
>
> int main()
> {
> ALCcontext *Context;
> ALCdevice *Device;
> ALint attribs[4] = { 0 };
> ALint iSends =0;
>
> Device = alcOpenDevice(NULL);
> if (Device)
> {
> cout<<"Device succesfully created"<<endl;
> }
> if(!Device)
> {
> cout<<"Device not succesfully created"<<endl;
> alcCloseDevice(Device);
> return 0;
> }
>
> if (alcIsExtensionPresent(Device, "ALC_EXT_EFX") == ALC_FALSE)
> {
> cout<<"EFX extention is not found"<<endl;
> }
> else if (alcIsExtensionPresent(Device, "ALC_EXT_EFX") ==ALC_TRUE)
> {
> cout<<"EFX Extension found!"<<endl;
> }
> attribs[0] = ALC_MAX_AUXILIARY_SENDS;
> attribs[1] = 4;
>
> Context=alcCreateContext(Device,attribs);
alcMakeContextCurrent(Context);
> alcGetIntegerv(Device, ALC_MAX_AUXILIARY_SENDS, 1, &iSends);
>
> printf("Device supports %d Aux Sends per Source\n", iSends);

> alGenEffects=(LPALGENEFFECTS);
> alGetProcAddress("alGenEffects");
> alDeleteEffects=(LPALDELETEEFFECTS);
> alGetProcAddress("alDeleteEffects");
> alIsEffect=(LPALISEFFECT);
> alGetProcAddress("alIsEffect");
>
>
> if (!(alGenEffects && alDeleteEffects && alIsEffect))
> {

But the problem is that when i build it i get allot of "undeclared
identifier" errors...
The full list of errors is here :
> 'ALC_MAX_AUXILIARY_SENDS' : undeclared identifier
> 'ALC_MAX_AUXILIARY_SENDS' : undeclared identifier
> 'alGenEffects' : undeclared identifier
> 'LPALGENEFFECTS' : undeclared identifier
> 'alDeleteEffects' : undeclared identifier
> 'LPALDELETEEFFECTS' : undeclared identifier
> 'alIsEffect' : undeclared identifier
> 'LPALISEFFECT' : undeclared identifier
> 'alGenEffects' : undeclared identifier
> 'alDeleteEffects' : undeclared identifier
> 'alIsEffect' : undeclared identifier
>
If i am not mistaking its cause i did not declare them i got this error but
i don't know what type of Openal type i have to declare them as...
Also the red parts of the code is the parts i did not understand, so if its
possible can i get some explanation ?
Thanks in advance.
