[LAD] handling data streams: file vs callback

Hi,

I'm trying to jackify xwax. Xwax is a linux based emulator for Rane 
serato and Final scratch.

I have successfully adapted the code from jackEQ to allow xwax to 
register and connect several JACK i/o's.

However the original system uses file descriptors for handling the data 
(oss/alsa) internally and this is not instantly compatible with the JACK 
callback system. At least it's not obvious to me how to link the 
internal streams to the external ports.

If anyone here has a tip to link everything together the code is 
available online here:

http://www.djcj.org/code/xwax-jack.tar.gz

There's only 6 or seven small files and the process flows from xwax.c 
->device.c. rig.c is also playing a part but I'm not sure it is essential.

I'm sure it's a simple fix probably only a couple of lines, but it's 
beyond my skills to get it done quickly so I'm putting it out here in 
case anyone feels the urge to give me a hand...


Cheers.
