Subject[Csnd] No audio output from API
After creating a working orchestra + score file (and confirming that it
produces sound) I set to work creating a program to use the API to control
the orchestra in realtime.  Everything runs without errors (all 0's
returned), but I don't hear any sound.  Any help is appreciated.

Here is the code - sorry, it's in Forth, hopefully it's still legible. 
Console output below.

Oh ..  I'm such an idiot.  I realized that my commandline options aren't in
the orchestra file.  

Now I just need to configure audio output to dac in the API.  Unfortunately
it's impossible to send argv as a char array with SwiftForth's FFI, so could
someone point me at the right function(s) to do this without commandline
options?

Hi Roger,

I didn't see anything posted, but generally with Csound 6 it's easiest
to use the csoundSetOption function (or just SetOption on a Csound
object, depends if you're calling into the C or C++ API's from Forth).
 You should set one set of flags at a time, such as:

csoundSetOption(csound, "-odac");
csoundSetOption(csound, "-m127");

(Not sure what the Forth equivalent is, I haven't played around much
with postfix languages.)

Hope that helps!

It's visible on the forum but not in the mailing list.  Don't know why.  Thank you for the function, hopefully that's what I need - so longer as it lets me pass a pointer to the string rather than the string itself I should be good to go.  Sifting through the csound.h file is a bit nerve-testing at times.

Oh, and the equivalent would be:

csound z" -odac" csoundSetOption

;)

Subject[Csnd] Re: No audio output from API
I believe that GForth and SwiftForth are largely compatible, except for the FFI.  Unfortunately that's not standardized - the binding syntax is likely different and parameter order could be reversed.

SwiftForth does have a free version that is only missing executable export.  You can run source files (treating them as scripts) by setting SwiftForth to open source files when double-clicked or configuring your text editor to run them with a hotkey.

I can share my source once I have things running.  Not sure which API examples you're referring to - I've been using this old pdf I found by Rory Walsh as my guide.  The link to the API docs on csound was broken.

Thanks for the link Steven.  Looking at Python example #1, I already see an obstacle - I don't know how to compile .csd files without passing the path of one to csoundCompile via argc/argv, which I can't do.  I'd enjoy translating these examples (partly for the educational value) but I think I'd need your help to overcome obstacles like this one.

SubjectRe: [Csnd] Re: No audio output from API
Mark, if you looks at any of the other examples, you'll see that none of them (at least, none of the ones I've seen) compile a CSD from the flesystem. That was just showing how one would do that. It's extremely easy to compile ORC and SCO data from strings.

Thanks for the link Steven.  Looking at Python example #1, I already see an obstacle - I don't know how to compile .csd files without passing the path of one to csoundCompile via argc/argv, which I can't do.  I'd enjoy translating these examples (partly for the educational value) but I think I'd need your help to overcome obstacles like this one.

your source when you're ready.

SubjectRe: [Csnd] Re: No audio output from API
I did a quick search for information about the FFI in SwiftForth but
didn't see anything in the docs folder or online.  Could you direct me
to some info?  Also, if you post what you got so far here, I can take
a look. Maybe once we get past the initial hurdle, the rest will fall
into place.

Mark, if you looks at any of the other examples, you'll see that none of them (at least, none of the ones I've seen) compile a CSD from the flesystem. That was just showing how one would do that. It's extremely easy to compile ORC and SCO data from strings.

Thanks for the link Steven.  Looking at Python example #1, I already see an obstacle - I don't know how to compile .csd files without passing the path of one to csoundCompile via argc/argv, which I can't do.  I'd enjoy translating these examples (partly for the educational value) but I think I'd need your help to overcome obstacles like this one.

Ah, I just published API examples at:

https://github.com/kunstmusik/csoundAPI_examples

It's mentioned in another email thread here, but I'm looking to have
these examples translated into multiple languages from the Python
ones.  I got Swiftforth installed here now. I'd certainly like to see
your source when you're ready.

Thanks!

SubjectRe: [Csnd] Re: No audio output from API
Attachmentsexample1.fs  
Thanks for that, I did find the information in 8.2 of the manual here.
I spent a little time and figured out how to create a string array to
use with csoundCompile.  I got the following to work as example1.fs.
The code is:

0     csoundCreate value csound

create myargs z" csound", z" test1.csd",

csound z" -B256" csoundSetOption .
csound z" -odac" csoundSetOption .
csound 2 myargs csoundCompile .

csound csoundStart .
csound csoundPerform .
csound csoundStop .

I've attached the complete example here, and have committed it to a
forth folder in the examples git repo.

I think the FFI stuff could be moved to a separate .fs file.  The FFI
stuff looks about what I'd expect, and I'm wondering if we couldn't
just generate a csound.fs file from the Python API, using the
introspection into the objects to write out the .fs.  That'd be sort
of neat. :)

Otherwise, good luck with the rest of your work!
