Sound Component-Defined Routines

Managing Sound Components

To write a sound component, you might need to define routines that manage the loading, configuration, and unloading of your sound component:

• SoundComponentInitOutputDevice
• SoundComponentSetSource
• SoundComponentGetSource
• SoundComponentGetSourceData
• SoundComponentSetOutput

After the Sound Manager opens your sound component, it attempts to add your sound component to a sound component chain. Thereafter, the Sound Manager calls your component's SoundComponentInitOutputDevice function to give you an opportunity to set default values for any associated hardware and to perform any hardware-specific operations.
