This is an Ada package that can play WAV files on Windows, OSX, and Linux, using Ada tasking and OpenAL libraries. It includes a partial Ada binding to OpenAL.

It provides sound-playing capabilities for Ada apps to
* asynchronously start and stop music/sound loops,
* initiate transient sounds,
* allow unlimited sound concurrency.

It is suitable for any Ada application that needs music, sound loops or transient sound effects; eg. games.

The proper command to extract the archive and maintain the directory structure is "7z x filename".

Features

  • simple interface
  • Windows
  • Mac/OSX
