Unfortunately on certain systems, the TLS callback is called in a restricted context, and isn't allowed to access certain messaging sub-systems. Such sub- systems may be used if the thread's context is freed, in turn freeing the device, which it tries to close. Ideally, the app shouldn't have tried to destroy a context while it was still current on a thread, or even leave a context current on a thread that's being destroyed,. So for now, release the context ref and print an ERR that it might be leaked.
Source Install ============== To install OpenAL Soft, use your favorite shell to go into the build/ directory, and run: cmake .. Assuming configuration went well, you can then build it, typically using GNU Make (KDevelop, MSVC, and others are possible depending on your system setup and CMake configuration). Please Note: Double check that the appropriate backends were detected. Often, complaints of no sound, crashing, and missing devices can be solved by making sure the correct backends are being used. CMake's output will identify which backends were enabled. For most systems, you will likely want to make sure ALSA, OSS, and PulseAudio were detected (if your target system uses them). For Windows, make sure DirectSound was detected. Utilities ========= The source package comes with an informational utility, openal-info, and is built by default. It prints out information provided by the ALC and AL sub- systems, including discovered devices, version information, and extensions. Configuration ============= OpenAL Soft can be configured on a per-user and per-system basis. This allows users and sysadmins to control information provided to applications, as well as application-agnostic behavior of the library. See alsoftrc.sample for available settings. Acknowledgements ================ Special thanks go to: Creative Labs for the original source code this is based off of. Christopher Fitzgerald for the current reverb effect implementation, and helping with the low-pass and HRTF filters. Christian Borss for the 3D panning code previous versions used as a base. Ben Davis for the idea behind a previous version of the click-removal code. Richard Furse for helping with my understanding of Ambisonics that is used by the various parts of the library.
