Description-en: AL Utilities REtooled (utilities)
ALURE is a utility library to help manage common tasks with OpenAL
applications. This includes device enumeration and initialization, file
loading, and streaming.
.
The purpose of this library is to provide pre-made functionality that would
otherwise be repetitive or difficult to (re)code for various projects and
platforms, such as loading a sound file into an OpenAL buffer and streaming an
audio file through a buffer queue. Support for different formats is consistant
across platforms, so no special checks are needed when loading files, and all
formats are handled through the same API.
.
Currently ALURE includes a basic .wav and .aif file reader, and can leverage
external libraries such as libSndFile (for extended wave formats and several
others), VorbisFile (for Ogg Vorbis), and FLAC (for FLAC and Ogg FLAC), and
others. External libraries can also be dynamically loaded at run-time, or
individually disabled outright at compile time.
.
This package installs the various ALURE utility programs.
