Hi,
Thank you for the effort you've put into this. I havent even tried it
yet, (will do so
when I get some time), however as a Lin-Audio user, I really
appreciate this work.
I will read the API, and if I understand enough of it, I will code
support for these
features.
Yesterday I tried to quickly whip up a demo app. I got into it for an
hour but couldn't decide if it was worth adding all the gui features
necessary for a simple demo.
So far I came up with an app that load a gtk window with two buttons and
four sliders.
button1: Save Session
button2: quit session
there is no standard way to trigger a Session Save.
it will be session manager dependent.
pyjacksm has a dbus interface. but i wouldnt consider it stable as of
yet.
This will no doubt lead to some confusion. Is there a recommended way of
handling the session save/quit operation in app? Or should we all just
leave that to the SM app and just add support for receiving the
notification in app?
slider 1 =
channel 1, slider 2 = channel 2 etc...
When save session/quit session are pressed the app saves the position of
the sliders to a file on disk and loads it again when started if it exists.
As a simple app it won't really do anything useful apart from demo how
to work with the code so I would like to get some feedback from other
users on what would actually be a useful demo of the code in action.
I'm thinking along the lines of the demos apple released for the iphone
which while being mostly fairly unnecessary are also still perfectly
functional apps in their own right.
If I can remove widgets or add only a couple more that would be preferable.
i dont really see the relation to jack session.
only 10% of such an app would be jack session related.
i dont really think would be a good demo of jack-session.
but maybe i am wrong.
i tend to think that patches which add session support are better
examples.
this is the patch for seq24:
http://trac.jackaudio.org/attachment/wiki/WalkThrough/User/jack_session/jac…
That's not a bad idea. If we get a few different apps with different
languages and UI kits to contribute patches and version numbers of the
working app we would have a very useful resource and saves having to
write a new app just for demo purposes.
I will contribute a patch for jackEQ which is c+gtk2 in the next few days.
Cheers.
