Detailed Description

This class is used to wrap an AudioFormatReader and only read from a subsection of the file.

So if you have a reader which can read a 1000 sample file, you could wrap it in one of these to only access, e.g. samples 100 to 200, and any samples outside that will come back as 0. Accessing sample 0 from this reader will actually read the first sample from the other's subsection, which might be at a non-zero position.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

AudioSubsectionReader::AudioSubsectionReader ( AudioFormatReader sourceReader,
int64  subsectionStartSample,
int64  subsectionLength,
bool  deleteSourceWhenDeleted 
)

Creates a AudioSubsectionReader for a given data source.

Parameters:
sourceReader the source reader from which we'll be taking data
subsectionStartSample the sample within the source reader which will be mapped onto sample 0 for this reader.
subsectionLength the number of samples from the source that will make up the subsection. If this reader is asked for any samples beyond this region, it will return zero.
deleteSourceWhenDeleted if true, the sourceReader object will be deleted when this object is deleted.
AudioSubsectionReader::~AudioSubsectionReader (  ) 

Destructor.


Member Function Documentation

bool AudioSubsectionReader::readSamples ( int **  destSamples,
int  numDestChannels,
int  startOffsetInDestBuffer,
int64  startSampleInFile,
int  numSamples 
) [virtual]

Subclasses must implement this method to perform the low-level read operation.

Callers should use read() instead of calling this directly.

Parameters:
destSamples the array of destination buffers to fill. Some of these pointers may be null
numDestChannels the number of items in the destSamples array. This value is guaranteed not to be greater than the number of channels that this reader object contains
startOffsetInDestBuffer the number of samples from the start of the dest data at which to begin writing
startSampleInFile the number of samples into the source data at which to begin reading. This value is guaranteed to be >= 0.
numSamples the number of samples to read

Implements AudioFormatReader.

void AudioSubsectionReader::readMaxLevels ( int64  startSample,
int64  numSamples,
float &  lowestLeft,
float &  highestLeft,
float &  lowestRight,
float &  highestRight 
) [virtual]

Finds the highest and lowest sample levels from a section of the audio stream.

This will read a block of samples from the stream, and measure the highest and lowest sample levels from the channels in that section, returning these as normalised floating-point levels.

Parameters:
startSample the offset into the audio stream to start reading from. It's ok for this to be beyond the start or end of the stream.
numSamples how many samples to read
lowestLeft on return, this is the lowest absolute sample from the left channel
highestLeft on return, this is the highest absolute sample from the left channel
lowestRight on return, this is the lowest absolute sample from the right channel (if there is one)
highestRight on return, this is the highest absolute sample from the right channel (if there is one)
