libao Binding for the Ada Programming Language

This a thick binding of libao. So all the rough edges of C have all been filed off. In particular:

• ao_initialize/ao_shutdown are now automatic
• ao_option/Option_List objects are deallocated when they go out of scope
• ao_device/Device objects are automatically closed upon program end
• All error codes have been converted to exceptions

A short example program is available in the example subdirectory.

Building and Installation

This repository is written to use the GNAT Project Manager build tools. To build, use the following command

gprbuild aao.gpr

There is a single build switch of -Xbuild which can have a value of release (the default) or debug.

To install the binding, use

gprinstall -p -m aao.gpr

The other gpr file example.gpr can be used to build the short example programs provided.

For further information on the build tools, consult the GPRbuild docs.
