Wie erzeugt man Ton in C unter Linux?

Windows verwendet seine eigene und einzige Soundarchitektur, daher können Sie auf sound() zugreifen Routine.

Verschiedene Linux-Rechner erfordern je nach installierten Paketen möglicherweise unterschiedliche Ansätze. Vielleicht das Dienstprogramm beep (außerhalb dieser Frage zu Stackexchange) kann Sie in die richtige Richtung führen

Ich mag den obigen Tipp bezüglich libao - ich habe es gerade ausprobiert und es funktioniert gut. Hier ist ein ähnliches Maß an Komplexität, bei dem OpenAL verwendet wird, um einen Rohaudiopuffer im PCM-Format zu synthetisieren und dann als Audio zu rendern

// sudo apt-get install libopenal-dev

// gcc -o openal_play_monday   openal_play_monday.c  -lopenal -lm

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>    // gives malloc
#include <math.h>


#ifdef __APPLE__
#include <OpenAL/al.h>
#include <OpenAL/alc.h>
#elif __linux

Wenn Sie OpenAL weiterentwickeln möchten ... werfen Sie einen Blick darauf

https://github.com/scottstensland/render-audio-openal

Out of the Box spielt OpenAL einen Puffer von PCM-Audio ganz gut ab ... aber es lässt als Übung die Fähigkeit, einen Stream abzuspielen. In diesem Github-Repo habe ich einen Audioserver mit OpenAL geschrieben, der das Abspielen von Streaming-Audio implementiert ... viel Spaß
