Valid values for param are VERSION, RENDERER, VENDOR, and EXTENSIONS, as well as the error codes defined by AL. The application can use GetString to retrieve a string for an error code.- Parameters:
pname
- The property to be returned- Returns:
- OpenAL String property
-
alGetError
public static int alGetError()
The AL detects only a subset of those conditions that could be considered errors. This is because in many cases error checking would adversely impact the performance of an error-free program.Each detectable error is assigned a numeric code. When an error is detected by AL, a flag is set and the error code is recorded. Further errors, if they occur, do not affect this recorded code. When GetError is called, the code is returned and the flag is cleared, so that a further error will again record its code. If a call to GetError returns AL_NO_ERROR then there has been no detectable error since the last call to GetError (or since the AL was initialized).
Error codes can be mapped to strings. The GetString function returns a pointer to a constant (literal) string that is identical to the identifier used for the enumeration value, as defined in the specification.
AL_NO_ERROR - "No Error" token.
AL_INVALID_NAME - Invalid Name parameter.
AL_INVALID_ENUM - Invalid parameter.
AL_INVALID_VALUE - Invalid enum parameter value.
AL_INVALID_OPERATION - Illegal call.
AL_OUT_OF_MEMORY - Unable to allocate memory.
The table summarizes the AL errors. Currently, when an error flag is set, results of AL operations are undefined only if AL_OUT_OF_MEMORY has occured. In other cases, the command generating the error is ignored so that it has no effect on AL state or output buffer contents. If the error generating command returns a value, it returns zero. If the generating command modifies values through a pointer argument, no change is made to these values. These error semantics apply only to AL errors, not to system errors such as memory access errors.
Several error generation conditions are implicit in the description of the various AL commands. First, if a command that requires an enumerated value is passed a value that is not one of those specified as allowable for that command, the error AL_INVALID_ENUM results. This is the case even if the argument is a pointer to a symbolic constant if that value is not allowable for the given command. This will occur whether the value is allowable for other functions, or an invalid integer value.
Integer parameters that are used as names for AL objects such as Buffers and Sources are checked for validity. If an invalid name parameter is specified in an AL command, an AL_INVALID_NAME error will be generated, and the command is ignored.
If a negative integer is provided where an argument of type sizei is specified, the error AL_INVALID_VALUE results. The same error will result from attempts to set integral and floating point values for attributes exceeding the legal range for these. The specification does not guarantee that the implementation emits AL_INVALID_VALUE if a NaN or Infinity value is passed in for a float or double argument (as the specification does not enforce possibly expensive testing of floating point values).
Commands can be invalid. For example, certain commands might not be applicable to a given object. There are also illegal combinations of tokens and values as arguments to a command. AL responds to any such illegal command with an AL_INVALID_OPERATION error.
If memory is exhausted as a side effect of the execution of an AL command, either on system level or by exhausting the allocated resources at AL's internal disposal, the error AL_OUT_OF_MEMORY may be generated. This can also happen independent of recent commands if AL has to request memory for an internal task and fails to allocate the required memory from the operating system.
Otherwise errors are generated only for conditions that are explicitely described in this specification.

- current error state
-
alIsExtensionPresent
public static boolean alIsExtensionPresent(java.lang.String fname)
To verify that a given extension is available for the current context and the device it is associated with, use this method.A
null
name argument returns AL_FALSE, as do invalid and unsupported string tokens. Anull
deviceHandle will result in an INVALID_DEVICE error.- Parameters:
fname

- true if extension is available, false if not
-
alGetEnumValue
public static int alGetEnumValue(java.lang.String ename)
To obtain enumeration values for extensions, the application has to use GetEnumValue of an extension token. Enumeration values are defined within the AL namespace and allocated according to specification of the core API and the extensions, thus they are context-independent.
Returns 0 if the enumeration can not be found. The presence of an enum value does not guarantee the applicability of an extension to the current context. A non-zero return indicates merely that the implementation is aware of the existence of this extension. Implementations should not attempt to return 0 to indicate that the extensions is not supported for the current context.
- Parameters:
ename
- String describing an OpenAL enum- Returns:
- Actual int for the described enumeration name

-
alBufferData
public static void alBufferData(int buffer, int format, java.nio.ByteBuffer data, int freq)
A special case of Buffer state is the actual sound sample data stored in asociation with the Buffer. Applications can specify sample data using BufferData.
The data specified is copied to an internal software, or if possible, hardware buffer. The implementation is free to apply decompression, conversion, resampling, and filtering as needed. The internal format of the Buffer is not exposed to the application, and not accessible. Valid formats are AL_FORMAT_MONO8, AL_FORMAT_MONO16, AL_FORMAT_STEREO8, and AL_FORMAT_STEREO16. An implementation may expose other formats, see the chapter on Extensions for information on determining if additional formats are supported.
Applications should always check for an error condition after attempting to specify buffer data in case an implementation has to generate an AL_OUT_OF_MEMORY or conversion related AL_INVALID_VALUE error. The application is free to reuse the memory specified by the data pointer once the call to BufferData returns. The implementation has to dereference, e.g. copy, the data during BufferData execution.
- Parameters:
buffer
- Buffer to fillformat
- format sound data is indata
- location of datafreq
- frequency of data

alSourceQueueBuffers
public static void alSourceQueueBuffers(int source, java.nio.IntBuffer buffers)
The application can queue up one or multiple buffer names using SourceQueueBuffers. The buffers will be queued in the sequence in which they appear in the array.
This command is legal on a Source in any state (to allow for streaming, queueing has to be possible on a AL_PLAYING Source). Queues are read-only with exception of the unqueue operation. The Buffer Name AL_NONE (i.e. 0) can be queued.
- Parameters:
source
- source to queue buffers ontobuffers
- buffers to be queued
-
alSourceQueueBuffers
public static void alSourceQueueBuffers(int source, int buffer)
Overloads alSourceQueueBuffers.
-
alSourceUnqueueBuffers
public static void alSourceUnqueueBuffers(int source, java.nio.IntBuffer buffers)
Once a queue entry for a buffer has been appended to a queue and is pending processing, it should not be changed. Removal of a given queue entry is not possible unless either the Source is AL_STOPPED (in which case then entire queue is considered processed), or if the queue entry has already been processed (AL_PLAYING or AL_PAUSED Source).
The Unqueue command removes a number of buffers entries that have finished processing, in the order of appearance, from the queue. The operation will fail if more buffers are requested than available, leaving the destination arguments unchanged. An AL_INVALID_VALUE error will be thrown. If no error, the destination argument will have been updated accordingly.
- Parameters:
source
- source to unqueue buffers frombuffers
- IntBuffer containing list of names that were unqueued
-
alSourceUnqueueBuffers
public static int alSourceUnqueueBuffers(int source)
Overloads alSourceUnqueueBuffers.
-
alDistanceModel
public static void alDistanceModel(int value)
Samples usually use the entire dynamic range of the chosen format/encoding, independent of their real world intensity. In other words, a jet engine and a clockwork both will have samples with full amplitude. The application will then have to adjust Source AL_GAIN accordingly to account for relative differences.
Source AL_GAIN is then attenuated by distance. The effective attenuation of a Source depends on many factors, among which distance attenuation and source and Listener AL_GAIN are only some of the contributing factors. Even if the source and Listener AL_GAIN exceed 1.0 (amplification beyond the guaranteed dynamic range), distance and other attenuation might ultimately limit the overall AL_GAIN to a value below 1.0.
AL currently supports three modes of operation with respect to distance attenuation. It supports two distance-dependent attenuation models, one which is similar to the IASIG I3DL2 (and DS3D) model. The application choses one of these two models (or can chose to disable distance-dependent attenuation effects model) on a per-context basis.
Legal arguments are AL_NONE, AL_INVERSE_DISTANCE, and AL_INVERSE_DISTANCE_CLAMPED.
AL_NONE bypasses all distance attenuation calculation for all Sources. The implementation is expected to optimize this situation.
AL_INVERSE_DISTANCE_CLAMPED is the DS3D model, with AL_REFERENCE_DISTANCE indicating both the reference distance and the distance below which gain will be clamped.
AL_INVERSE_DISTANCE is equivalent to the DS3D model with the exception that AL_REFERENCE_DISTANCE does not imply any clamping.
The AL implementation is still free to apply any range clamping as necessary. The current distance model chosen can be queried using GetIntegerv and AL_DISTANCE_MODEL.- Parameters:
value
- distance model to be set
-
alDopplerFactor
public static void alDopplerFactor(float value)
The Doppler Effect depends on the velocities of Source and Listener relative to the medium, and the propagation speed of sound in that medium. The application might want to emphasize or de-emphasize the Doppler Effect as physically accurate calculation might not give the desired results. The amount of frequency shift (pitch change) is proportional to the speed of listener and source along their line of sight. The application can increase or decrease that frequency shift by specifying the scaling factor AL should apply to the result of the calculation.
The Doppler Effect as implemented by AL is described by the formula below. Effects of the medium (air, water) moving with respect to listener and source are ignored. AL_DOPPLER_VELOCITY is the propagation speed relative to which the Source velocities are interpreted.VD: AL_DOPPLER_VELOCITY DF: AL_DOPPLER_FACTOR vl: Listener velocity (scalar, projected on source-listener vector) vs: Source verlocity (scalar, projected on source-listener vector) f: Frequency in sample f': effective Doppler shifted frequency
f' = DF * f * (VD-vl)/(VD+vs)
vl<0, vs>0 : source and listener approaching each other vl>0, vs<0 : source and listener moving away from each other
The implementation has to clamp the projected Listener velocity vl, if abs(vl) is greater or equal VD. It similarly has to clamp the projected Source velocity vs if abs(vs) is greater or equal VD.
There are two API calls global to the current context that provide control of the two related parameters.
AL_DOPPLER_FACTOR is a simple scaling to exaggerate or deemphasize the Doppler (pitch) shift resulting from the calculation.
A negative value will result in an AL_INVALID_VALUE error, the command is then ignored. The default value is 1. The current setting can be queried using GetFloatv and AL_DOPPLER_FACTOR. The implementation is free to optimize the case of AL_DOPPLER_FACTOR being set to zero, as this effectively disables the effect.
- Parameters:
value
- Doppler scale value to set
-
alDopplerVelocity
public static void alDopplerVelocity(float value)
The Doppler Effect depends on the velocities of Source and Listener relative to the medium, and the propagation speed of sound in that medium. The application might want to emphasize or de-emphasize the Doppler Effect as physically accurate calculation might not give the desired results.

f' = DF * f * (VD-vl)/(VD+vs)
vl<0, vs>0 : source and listener approaching each other vl>0, vs<0 : source and listener moving away from each other
The implementation has to clamp the projected Listener velocity vl, if abs(vl) is greater or equal VD. It similarly has to clamp the projected Source velocity vs if abs(vs) is greater or equal VD.
There are two API calls global to the current context that provide control of the two related parameters.
AL_DOPPLER_VELOCITY allows the application to change the reference (propagation) velocity used in the Doppler Effect calculation. This permits the application to use a velocity scale appropriate to its purposes.
A negative or zero value will result in an AL_INVALID_VALUE error, the command is then ignored. The default value is 1. The current setting can be queried using GetFloatv and AL_DOPPLER_VELOCITY.
- Parameters:
value
- Doppler velocity value to set
