Added the ability for the user to provide a DataSourceFactory, which cAudio will use to get audio data. This interface can be overridden to provide cAudio the ability to read from zip archives, TCP streams, potentially any location. DataSourceFactories can also be prioritized.
Made the existing FileSource a factory and registered it by default with the manager. If the user wishes to prevent cAudio from reading from disk, unRegister the "FileSystem" data source.
Made tutorials conform with the changes to the API.
Added conversion functions from our audio format enum to OpenAL's in preparation for supporting more formats.
Reorganized cAudio defines, made it easier to access some compile time parameters.
Fixed a bug where a source could not be played again after it reached the end of its audio stream.
Added better checking for sources. IsValid() should provide a more useful indication of whether a source is usable.
Added error checking and logging to cAudioCapture.
Prevented initializing of cAudioManager until shutdown() has been called.
Added a tutorial for Audio Effects.
Added a footsteps sound for showing off Audio Effects.
Moved the default compile location for the main library to lib/. The msvc project will copy the cAudio.dll to bin/win32-visual/
Changed the 3d tutorial to use the move convenience function in order to have proper doppler effects.
Added relative seek ability to cAudio source.
Updated decoders to have a flag if the data they are working with is valid for their decoder (isValid).
Added reference counting to IAudio, IAudioDecoder, and IDataSource
Added better error checking in cAudio sources and they will do a better job of detecting if they are invalid.
Fixed the spelling on cWavAudioDecoderFactory.h
Ogg decoder support for the isValid check.
Time seek ability added to cRawDecoder
Rewrote cWavDecoder. It will now read slightly malformed wav files (and conforms to the wav spec), no longer has a bug where 8 bit mono audio samples will play twice as fast as 16 bit mono samples, proper bounds checking to make sure only the audio data is sent to the audio source, and time seeking abilities. The decoder does not support channels over 2, compressed wavs, wavs with more than 1 data or fmt block, or any other blocks that may be present in a wav file. All unsupported blocks will be ignored.
Added a convenience function (move()) to the cAudio source, making it easier to move a source and do velocity for doppler effects with a single call.
Internally, audio sources are now stored in an std::vector for better performance. This change also makes it so that it is no longer required for the user to name a source. The user can pass NULL to name to avoid naming it.
Some documentation fixes.
Added a stress test app, allowing users and developers test how well cAudio performs under pressure.
Removed an unnecessary include in cAudioManager.h
Added a define to set the number of buffers used by an audio source
Added the last of the previously unsupported OpenAL source parameters (Cones, attenuation tweaking, max/min volume, and rolloff factor)
Cleaned up the implementation of cAudio source. It no longer keeps a redundant copy of the state information and functions are now in order that they are defined. Some functions have been renamed to be clearer.
Other changes throughout the code to support the changes to the cAudio source.
Changed song used by Tutorial1_2DSound.
Added some comments.
Changed cVector3 to use a custom Episilon instead of including float.h (less bloat)
Added debug log entries to cAudio
Allowed cOggDecoder to return error values from decoding. cAudio now handles those errors a little better.
