[Openal] Max number of sources (and legit id values) foreachOpenALimplementation

[E. Wing]

Hi all,
I have a follow up question on this.

I was reminded that with the Apple implementation, there is a
distinction between the maximum number of sources you can generate and
the maximum number of sources you can simultaneously play (the latter
being smaller than the former).

So for example on the Mac (not the iPhone), you may be able to
generate 256 sources, but you can only play 64 of them simultaneously
(unless you tweak the cap through one of Apple's extensions).

So for all the numbers collected here in this thread, do any of the
other implementations make this same strong distinction (ignoring the
issues of where hardware resources may suddenly be diverted for other
competing reasons)? So in the ideal case, does the maximum number of
generated sources == the maximum number of simultaneous playing
sources?

Thanks,
Eric
