Declaration Syntax

Visual Basic

Visual C++

public AoDevice OpenFile(
	string fileName,
	bool overwrite,
	int bitsPerSample,
	int sampleRate,
	int channels
)

Public Function OpenFile ( _
	fileName As String, _
	overwrite As Boolean, _
	bitsPerSample As Integer, _
	sampleRate As Integer, _
	channels As Integer _
) As AoDevice

public:
AoDevice^ OpenFile(
	String^ fileName, 
	bool overwrite, 
	int bitsPerSample, 
	int sampleRate, 
	int channels
)

Parameters

fileName (String): Name of the file in which to store the audio. The special filename "-" corresponds to stdout.

overwrite (Boolean): If true, the file is automatically overwritten. If false, then a preexisting file will cause the function to return null.

bitsPerSample (Int32): Bits per sample.

An AoDevice representing the open device, null if it cannot be opened.
