DerelictSDLMixer

Introduction

DerelictSDLMixer is a D binding to Sam Lantinga's SDL_mixer, a cross platform, multichannel, audio mixer library designed to be used together with SDL.
This version of DerelictSDLMixer requires SDL_mixer 1.2.7 or later.

Using

  1. Always make sure the DerelictSDLMixer source modules are available on your import path.
  2. In modules that make use of DerelictSDLMixer, you will need to import the derelict.SDLMixer.SDLMixer module.
  3. Before calling any SDLMixer functions, you need to make a call to DerelictSDLMixer.load(). This will load the shared library.

The following is a complete program that loads DerelictSDLMixer: 

import derelict.sdl.mixer;

void main()
{
	DerelictSDLMixer.load();
	
	// now you can call SDL_mixer functions
}

As with other Derelict packages, DerelictSDLMixer will throw an exception if an error occurs while loading the shared library. For more information on Derelict exceptions, see the documentation for Loading/Unloading Shared Libraries.

In any module that calls SDL_mixer functions, you will also need to import derelict.sdl.sdl. This is not required to load the library, as shown above.

Finally, the method DerelictSDLMixer.unload() is provided for convenience. In normal practice you do not need to call this function, as Derelict will unload the library automatically when the app exits. You generally should only use this function if you need to unload DerelictSDL while the application is running.
