Hi ben,

The tutorial really help me for iphone, but the problem is it does not give proper simulation when we tap around the corners in iphone. It ruins the smooth flow of ripple when we drag finger around iphone screen.

So please help me how to overcome this problem. Or any suggestion / version update?

Thanks in advance
Aamir

Comment on restarting openAL after application interruption on the iPhone by Ben

Hey Sinji,

lots has changed since I originally wrote this. The way that interrupts are handled now in iOS is quite a bit different and really much easier. I dont have the code in front of me, but if I remember correctly you dont have to do much at all during an interrupt. If you are streaming and have a background thread running, you might want to do soething with that, but in terms of the OpenAL context I dont think you need to do much with it anymore.

I must apologize since I cant remember the specifics, check the docs.

Cheers!
-B

Help?
everything works except that if the interruption comes while setting up audio session in the initial function. which cause the ‘AudioSessionSetActive(true)’
fails.
i try to use a while loop to make sure the audio session initialized correctly.
but it doesn’t work.
