Description F Bachmann 2001-06-16 21:51:58 UTC

(*** This bug was imported into bugs.kde.org ***)

Package:           kmidi
Version:           KDE 2.2.0 CVS/CVSup/Snapshot
Severity:          normal
Installed from:    Compiled sources
Compiler:          gcc 2.95.3
OS:                Linux
OS/Compiler notes: alsa-0.5.11

For some time now compilation of kmidi fails due to some unallowed typecasts... This is really trivial to fix though.

In alsa_a.cpp the "__handle" argument used in the snd_... calls is declared as void* and must be casted to snd_pcm_t*.

This bug was reported against 2.2.0.  It is still existing in 2.2.1.

The fix is simply to change the function declaration on line 257 of 
alsa_a.cpp from:

static int set_playback_info (void* handle__ .......  )

to:

static int set_playback_info (snd_pcm_t* handle__ ....... )


This 30-second change should not slip through the next bugfix release of KDE.

....might be worth puttting the fix in the INSTALL file.

Has this change slipped through the next bugfix release of KDE?  If so, I apologize.
