Modified Portaudio toolbox that is compatible with Scilab 6.1.0.

Portaudio Toolbox for Scilab 6.1.0

The official Portaudio Toolbox v0.2 is only for Scilab 5.4.0 and is not compatible with Scilab 6.1.0. The old source code is also cannot be built with the latest Microsoft Visual Studio. Therefore, I reverse engineered and modified it a bit to make it buildable and loadable by Scilab 6.1.0. This is the modified source.

Build

Run builder.sce with Scilab.

Installation

Zip the built folder and install it normally using atomsInstall("/path/to/zipfile").

Steps to modify & build

In case you want to modify the official source code to see for yourself, here are the steps that I did:

1. Download the official source and built binaries from this link.
2. In builder.sce line 20: replace if v(2) < 4 then with if v(1) <= 5 && v(2) < 4 then, also fix a string at line 28.
3. In some src/c files: replace uppercase MALLOC and FREE with lowercase malloc and free.
4. Also in some src/c files: remove #include "strdup_windows.h".
5. In etc/portaudio_toolbox.start line 12: replace portaudio.start with portaudio_toolbox.start.
6. In all sci_gateway/c files: add void* pvApiCtx as a 2nd parameter to all functions' declaration.
7. Copy DESCRIPTION file from official source archive to modified source.
8. Run builder.sce.
