[fluid-dev] FluidSynth as "pure synthesizer"

[Norbert Schnell]

Dear FluidSynth devels,

FluidSynth for Max/MSP, as a "pure synthesizer" compiles and links  
only with the following files (15/42):
  fluid_chan.c
  fluid_chorus.c
  fluid_conv.c
  fluid_defsfont.c
  fluid_dsp_float.c
  fluid_gen.c
  fluid_hash.c
  fluid_list.c
  fluid_mod.c
  fluid_ramsfont.c
  fluid_rev.c
  fluid_settings.c
  fluid_synth.c
  fluid_tuning.c
  fluid_voice.c

In order to complete these to something that compiles and actually  
links I added a file to fluidmax that (re-)implements the functions  
listed below.

In fact, this didn't change a lot since the first version of  
fluidsynth for Max/MSP a couple of years ago, but I always thought  
that this could be slightly more elegant (see remarks below in the  
list).

Best
  Norbert

P.S.: The current code in "bindings/fluidmax" is not complete (I am  
just getting back to this after some years, Josh just proposed me a  
login and I'll fix this ASAP).

_____________________________________________________________________________________
The following functions are (re-)implemented in  
"fluidmax_fakefuns.c" (that should maybe be called "fluidmax_env.c")

These are anyway to re-implement depending on the host environment:
  fluid_curtime()
  fluid_utime() ... (well, this could maybe go into "fluid_synth"  
instead of "fluid_sys")
  new_fluid_timer()
  fluid_error()
  fluid_log()
  fluid_sys_config()

This one was before in "fluid_settings" but has been moved into  
"fluid_sys" (personally, I'd prefer to have a separate "fluid_utils"  
or two separate versions of the function in "fluid_settings" and  
"fluid_cmd"):
  fluid_strtok ()

These don't hurt (they are just empty for fluidmax):
  void fluid_shell_settings()
  void fluid_audio_driver_settings()
  void fluid_midi_driver_settings()

And these could vanish when fluid_synth_handle_midi_event() could go  
into "fluid_midi" or so.
  fluid_midi_event_get_type()
  fluid_midi_event_set_type()
  fluid_midi_event_get_channel()
  fluid_midi_event_set_channel()
  fluid_midi_event_get_key()
  fluid_midi_event_set_key()
  fluid_midi_event_get_velocity()
  fluid_midi_event_set_velocity()
  fluid_midi_event_get_control()
  fluid_midi_event_set_control()
  fluid_midi_event_get_value()
  fluid_midi_event_set_value()
  fluid_midi_event_get_program()
  fluid_midi_event_set_program()
  fluid_midi_event_get_pitch()
  fluid_midi_event_set_pitch()
