snd_pcm_plugin

Get the runtime status of a PCM channel (plugin aware)

Synopsis:

#include <sys/asoundlib.h>

int snd_pcm_plugin_status( snd_pcm_t                *handle, 
                           snd_pcm_channel_status_t *status );

Arguments:

handle: The handle for the PCM device, which you must have opened by calling snd_pcm_open_name(), snd_pcm_open(), or snd_pcm_open_preferred().
status: A pointer to a snd_pcm_channel_status_t structure that snd_pcm_plugin_status() fills with information about the PCM channel's status.
Fill in the status structure's channel member to specify the direction. All other members are read-only.

Library:

libasound.so

Use the -l asound option with qcc to link against this library.

Description:

The snd_pcm_plugin_status() function fills the status structure with runtime status information about the PCM channel selected by handle.

Returns:

EOK on success, a negative errno upon failure. The errno values are available in the errno.h file.

Errors:

-EBADFD: The pcm device state isn't ready.
-EFAULT: Failed to copy data.
-EINVAL: Invalid handle or the data pointer is NULL.

Classification:

QNX Neutrino

Interrupt handler	No
Signal handler	Yes

Caveats:

This function is not thread safe if handle (snd_pcm_t) is used across multiple threads.

This function is the plugin-aware version of snd_pcm_channel_status() . It functions exactly the same way. However, make sure that you don't mix and match plugin- and nonplugin-aware functions in your application, or you may get undefined behavior and misleading results.
