Useful Environment Variables
|
|
|
|
Below is a list of environment variables that can be set to aid with running or
|
|
debugging apps that use OpenAL Soft. They should be set before the app is run.
|
|
|
|
*** Logging ***
|
|
|
|
ALSOFT_LOGLEVEL
|
|
Specifies the amount of logging OpenAL Soft will write out:
|
|
0 - Effectively disables all logging
|
|
1 - Prints out errors only
|
|
2 - Prints out warnings and errors
|
|
3 - Prints out additional information, as well as warnings and errors
|
|
|
|
ALSOFT_LOGFILE
|
|
Specifies a filename that logged output will be written to. Note that the file
|
|
will be first cleared when logging is initialized.
|
|
|
|
*** Overrides ***
|
|
|
|
ALSOFT_CONF
|
|
Specifies an additional configuration file to load settings from. These
|
|
settings will take precedence over the global and user configs, but not other
|
|
environment variable settings.
|
|
|
|
ALSOFT_DRIVERS
|
|
Overrides the drivers config option. This specifies which backend drivers to
|
|
consider or not consider for use. Please see the drivers option in
|
|
alsoftrc.sample for a list of available drivers.
|
|
|
|
ALSOFT_DEFAULT_REVERB
|
|
Specifies the default reverb preset to apply to sources. Please see the
|
|
default-reverb option in alsoftrc.sample for additional information and a list
|
|
of available presets.
|
|
|
|
ALSOFT_TRAP_AL_ERROR
|
|
Set to "true" or "1" to force trapping AL errors. Like the trap-al-error config
|
|
option, this will raise a SIGTRAP signal (or a breakpoint exception under
|
|
Windows) when a context-level error is generated. Useful when run under a
|
|
debugger as it will break execution right when the error occurs, making it
|
|
easier to track the cause.
|
|
|
|
ALSOFT_TRAP_ALC_ERROR
|
|
Set to "true" or "1" to force trapping ALC errors. Like the trap-alc-error
|
|
config option, this will raise a SIGTRAP signal (or a breakpoint exception
|
|
under Windows) when a device-level error is generated. Useful when run under a
|
|
debugger as it will break execution right when the error occurs, making it
|
|
easier to track the cause.
|
|
|
|
ALSOFT_TRAP_ERROR
|
|
Set to "true" or "1" to force trapping both ALC and AL errors.
|
|
|
|
*** Compatibility ***
|
|
|
|
__ALSOFT_HALF_ANGLE_CONES
|
|
Older versions of OpenAL Soft incorrectly calculated the cone angles to range
|
|
between 0 and 180 degrees, instead of the expected range of 0 to 360 degrees.
|
|
Setting this to "true" or "1" restores the old buggy behavior, for apps that
|
|
were written to expect the incorrect range.
|
|
|
|
__ALSOFT_REVERSE_Z
|
|
Applications that don't natively use OpenAL's coordinate system have to convert
|
|
to it before passing in 3D coordinates. Depending on how exactly this is done,
|
|
it can cause correct output for stereo but incorrect Z panning for surround
|
|
sound (i.e., sounds that are supposed to be behind you sound like they're in
|
|
front, and vice-versa). Setting this to "true" or "1" will negate the localized
|
|
Z coordinate to flip front/back panning for 3D sources.
|
|
|
|
__ALSOFT_REVERSE_Y
|
|
Same as for __ALSOFT_REVERSE_Z, but for Y (up/down) panning.
|
|
|
|
__ALSOFT_REVERSE_X
|
|
Same as for __ALSOFT_REVERSE_Z, but for X (left/right) panning.
|
|
|
|
__ALSOFT_SUSPEND_CONTEXT
|
|
Due to the OpenAL spec not being very clear about them, behavior of the
|
|
alcSuspendContext and alcProcessContext methods has varied, and because of
|
|
that, previous versions of OpenAL Soft had them no-op. Creative's hardware
|
|
drivers and the Rapture3D driver, however, use these methods to batch changes,
|
|
which some applications make use of to protect against partial updates. In an
|
|
attempt to standardize on that behavior, OpenAL Soft has changed those methods
|
|
accordingly. Setting this to "ignore" restores the previous no-op behavior for
|
|
applications that interact poorly with the new behavior.
