[Clam-devel] embedded networks api : ask for proposals

[Pau Arumi]

Zach,
before going into UI and any further or in i'd like to define the
network API for embedded networks, and have working test cases.
So to start, if you take a look at this network test (copied below):
CLAM/test/FunctionalTests/ProcessingTests/TestStreamingSMSAnalysisSynthesis.cxx

In order to discuss the API, how would you re-write this test in order
to have the Analysis in a subnetwork?

I think the first test to implement shouldn't be this one, but
networks with audioports only.

void testAnalysisSynthesisInaNetwork()
{
	CLAM::Network net;
	CLAM::FreewheelingNetworkPlayer * player =  new 
CLAM::FreewheelingNetworkPlayer;
	net.SetPlayer( player ); // network owns the player memory

	net.AddProcessing( "Source", new CLAM::AudioSource );		
	net.AddProcessing( "Sink", new CLAM::AudioSink );		
	net.AddProcessing( "Analysis", new CLAM::SMSAnalysisCore );
	net.AddProcessing( "Synthesis", new CLAM::SMSSynthesis );

	net.ConnectPorts("Source.AudioOut", "Analysis.Input Audio");
	net.ConnectPorts("Analysis.Sinusoidal Peaks", "Synthesis.InputSinPeaks");
	net.ConnectPorts("Analysis.Residual Spectrum", 
"Synthesis.InputResSpectrum");
	net.ConnectPorts("Synthesis.OutputAudio", "Sink.AudioIn");
	net.ConfigureProcessing("Analysis", helperAnalysisConfigInstance() );
	net.ConfigureProcessing("Synthesis", helperSynthesisConfigInstance() );

	std::string inputFile = GetTestDataDirectory("Elvis.wav");
	std::string baseOutputFile = 
GetTestDataDirectory("SMSTests/out_sms_net_stream");
	player->InputFile(inputFile);
	player->OutputFile(baseOutputFile+"_result.wav");
	net.Start();
	net.Stop();

	std::string  whyDifferents;
	bool equals=helperCompareTwoAudioFiles(
			baseOutputFile+".wav", baseOutputFile+"_result.wav",
			whyDifferents);
	CPPUNIT_ASSERT_MESSAGE(whyDifferents, equals);
