To configure and compile (on Unix systems and MinGW):
1. Unpack the RtAudio distribution (tar -xzf rtaudio-x.x.tar.gz).
+
2. From within the directory containing this file, run configure:
./configure
--with-jack = choose JACK server support (linux or Macintosh OS-X)
--with-core = choose CoreAudio API support (Macintosh OS-X only)
--with-asio = choose ASIO API support (windows only)
+ --with-wasapi = choose Windows Audio System API support (windows only)
--with-ds = choose DirectSound API support (windows only)
Typing "./configure --help" will display all the available options. Note that you can provide more than one "--with-" flag to the configure script to enable multiple API support.
./configure CXX=CC
-WINDOWS USERS:
+CMAKE USAGE:
+
+CMake support is provided via the CMakeLists.txt files. Assuming you have CMake installed on your system, a typical usage would involve the following steps (from within the parent distribution directory):
+
+mkdir _build_
+cd _build_
+cmake <path to CMakeLists.txt usually two dots> <options> e.g. cmake .. -DAUDIO_WINDOWS_WASAPI=ON
+
+
+WINDOWS:
-The DirectSound and ASIO APIs in RtAudio compile with either the MinGW compiler or MS Visual Studio. The WASAPI API currently only compiles in MS Visual Studio.
+All Windows audio APIs in RtAudio compile with either the MinGW compiler (tested with latest tdm64-gcc-4.8.1) or MS Visual Studio.
Visual C++ 6.0 project files (very old) are included for the test programs in the /tests/Windows/ directory. These projects compile API support for ASIO, WASAPI and DirectSound.
