Résumé
The Tomes of Delphi: Win32 Multimedia API provides a comprehensive reference for using Windows multimedia API functions to incorporate audio in Delphi applications. Author Alan C. Moore begins with two chapters on the role of audio in the Windows environment and building a multimedia database application. He then covers in depth the various Win32 multimedia/audio APIs and their functions, including:
- the Wave API
- the MIDI API
- the Mixer API
- the MCI API
Each function entry contains the syntax, a description of what the function does, a list and description of parameters, acceptable constant values, return values, and an example of its use in Delphi's Object Pascal. Additional examples demonstrate several functions and their relationships.
The companion CD includes all of the code from the book, audio freeware components showing more examples of using the multimedia APIs, and a 60-day trial version of Delphi 5.0 Enterprise edition.
