Enumeration Type Documentation

MusicType

enum MusicType

Music types that music drivers can implement and engines can rely on.

MidiDriverFlags

enum MidiDriverFlags

A set of flags to be passed to detectDevice() which can be used to specify what kind of music driver is preferred / accepted.

The flags (except for MDT_PREFER_MT32 and MDT_PREFER_GM) indicate whether a given driver type is acceptable. E.g. the TOWNS music driver could be returned by detectDevice if and only if MDT_TOWNS is specified.

MDT_PREFER_MT32 and MDT_PREFER_GM indicate the MIDI device type to use when no device is selected in the music options, or when the MIDI device selected does not match the requirements of a game engine. With these flags, more priority is given to an MT-32 device, or a GM device respectively.
