Not really. That flag means if there isn't a server running, start
one. It doesn't start another Jack server if one is already running.
So yes, it is Jack "automagically" knowing whether it should run a
server or not. It doesn't need to be running anything beforehand
though - the check is made when the software registers a new client.
both of which already
have separate configuration files for default behaviour I believe... (And
obviously that all already assumes it's Jack2 in use.)
Yes, that's the fun of this with the launch behaviour hard-wired in at
compile time. I now remember that the bit that confused me was why
the settings file created by QJackCtl was being ignored - because I
wasn't using dbus in normal use.
Does this API exist and work with both Jack1 and
Jack2? This seems a total
minefield for anybody writing Jack-compliant software from all I've read!
Yes, and (kind of) yes. ;-)
