OpenAL fails on my computer

#21

Okay so I ran the program (and learned how to set environment variables in eclipse :)), and this is my output:

#22

It uses the mmdevapi, so the fix I did shouldn’t have changed anything for you. Are you sure build #15 has fixed the issue?

#23

I don’t think it actually fixed it, it just seems to have made the locking up happen less often.

EDIT: It still locks up quite a bit, it just seems to have bigger patches where it goes without locking up.

#24

If it has never locked up on its own and it only happens in your app, then I don’t think I can help more without a code sample that reproduces the issue. Could you please provide one?

#25

It also locks up when I run We Shall Wake.

#26

This is all I do to create the OpenAL context:

context = ALContext.create();
#27

[quote=“CopyableCougar4,post:26,topic:55278”]
Yes, but if that alone works fine, then it must be some interaction with what your application (or We Shall Wake) is doing. I cannot figure this out without some code to test. Also, does the ALSOFT_LOGLEVEL output look any different when it locks up?

#28

The output is identical when it locks up (except for the device ID).

I guess maybe it’s just my system and I just have to test audio code on another system?

#29

CopyableCougar4, the title of your thread is a bit misleading as your problem is specific to one version of a set of Java bindings that supports OpenAL.

#30

The problem is not necessarily the Java bindings, because the bindings work for most everybody else.

After all these years, aren’t you fucking tired already? Do you really gain anything from bashing LWJGL all the time?

It’s an open-source project. The source is here. All binary dependencies are built from source, you can find it here. If you think there’s something wrong/buggy/evil about any of the above, you’re welcome to submit a pull request. You won’t catch a disease.

There is no corporation behind LWJGL. I have personally written most of the code. Is there something about me that you feel uncomfortable about and would like to discuss?

#32

Chortle ::slight_smile:

Cas :slight_smile:

#33

Wasn’t this issue finally dealt with here? Not sure why you’re provoking the same problems again.

#34

Am I, as a socially awkward overlord, simply too lenient? For years, hell, probably a decade, Julien has fought this wars of the APIs on JGO, spreading annoyance and misery to those involved. We had to close down entire boards, had to issue countless warnings and moderations (after which Julien threatened to sue JGO into oblivion, and as he has sued websites before, it wasn’t an idle threat).

He has been banned, warned again, escorted to the padded room and resided there for months, and then… only weeks later, there are these insinuations, indirect references to ‘the others which are different which should not be compared’, causing even those among our elite to finally… lash out.

Julien, I am lenient once again, because somehow I feel sorry for you, but this is your last warning: one more insidious remark about the ‘profound’ difference between LWJGL and JogAmp, and you are out. Forever. Joining only a handful of people that were ever perm-banned on JGO. We can do without the toxicity.

#35

:point:

I sometimes wonder whether Julien is aware of the immense amount of harm he has done to something he professes to care about. I’ve used both LWJGL and JOGL on different projects for different reasons - both have their pros and cons. That anyone can show such religious fervour for a programming library is beyond me. That JOGL doesn’t have a solid and positive presence on JGO I find a shame.
