joal works

just want to mention here that joal still works.

I tested it with openalsoft on linux64 and OpanALTest and Sound3DTest worked just fine after some updates to the build script.

some of the junit tests do not run through but this does not look serious to me (e.g: some expected IllegalArgumentExceptions do not appear)

Does JOAL still work on Linux? Do I have to tinker something to use it with OpenALSoft?

it works on linux (at least for me). JOAL does not bundle any OpenALSoft implementation (but this would be quite cool indeed). It might also work with OpenALSoft if its installed in your linux distribution - but i haven't tried that. (just read my other post :) )

lol just reading my first post :) yes it works and i tested it with openalsoft :)
the build should just run without issues as long you have an AL implementation installed on your system (+ maybe the dev packages for the headers).

As Michael described .. any OpenAL should do it by now.

I have tested the current version with applets on Linux/Windows
and it will be included in the next signed release.

This is a good piece of news. Paul Lamb's sound library supports only a competitor of JOAL and JavaSound, it would be fine to have a JOAL plug-in too.

Hi

Does JOAL support jogamp.gluegen.UseTempJarCache like JOGL? I tried to use Paul Lamb Sound System with it but I get the following exception:

Yup, will do that for joal and jocl - good catch.

Sorry, I know this is a community project and you already do your best. Please can you tell me how much time you think you will spend on it? I have just taken 2 days off to fix some problems on TUER and switching to JOAL is mandatory to work around some problems/bugs of JavaSound in OpenJDK and Java 1.7 on Linux. I have looked at your commits in JOGL, I don't know how to adapt them to work with JOAL. In a near future, I will try to give some help on JOAL as I need it too now.

On this issue ? I probably will need 1-2 hours, mostly testing.
The patch will be a ~4 liner like:
  http://jogamp.org/git/?p=jogl.git;a=blob;f=src/newt/classes/jogamp/newt/NEWTJNILibLoader.java;hb=HEAD#l53
If you like to go ahead and try this yourself, you are very welcome ofc.

Yesterday I started to review the lifecycle/concurrency issues incl. Applet use-cases again.
Sat-Tue I was on paper work, some server update and in relaxing mode, ie. little output :)

However, as you can see by the commit logs,
I pretty much work around the clock on kicking out the releases.

After fixing the lifecycle/concurrency issues I will fix it or pull your commits.

Of course.

Hi

I use JOAL in the pre-beta version of TUER, it works fine, I'm very happy and I thank all contributors (especially Michael Bien and Sven Göthel) for their efforts.

Is there any plan to include OpenALSoft?
