#11 Select no DeviceId in controls but still allow to open ?
RE: Select no DeviceId in controls but still allow to
open ?
Goal: Select no DeviceId in controls in order to,
- allow to open and prepare data
- another way to turn off all midi input or output
- change DeviceId later when ready to use
- open and not take exclusive use of any ports yet
Right now I am working on the DeviceId property to
accomplish this while maintaining backward compatibility.
Sorry I did not get to solve this obvious feature earlier.
Sure was a hassle for VB program to determine if midi
input or output was disabled. Sure was a hassle to take
exclusive use of ports all the time when the program
does not not need it all the time.

Sorry. Forgot about this problem. I will see if I could get some
time to finish this.

This was easy to implement. My main concern was to resolve
a previous issue of changing device ports without loosing data
or settings. Setting a zero device port is worthless if
switching to a real port looses data. Sigh.
