Class ALCdevice


  • public final class ALCdevice
    extends Object
    The ALCdevice class represents a device opened in OpenAL space. ALC introduces the notion of a Device. A Device can be, depending on the implementation, a hardware device, or a daemon/OS service/actual server. This mechanism also permits different drivers (and hardware) to coexist within the same system, as well as allowing several applications to share system resources for audio, including a single hardware output device. The details are left to the implementation, which has to map the available backends to unique device specifiers.
