## alSndpNew

Syntax

    #include <libaudio.h>
    void alSndpNew(ALSndPlayer *sndp, ALSndpConfig *config);

Arguments

- sndp is the pointer to the sound player structure to initialize
- config is the pointer to the sound player configuration structure

Explanation
It initializes the sound player specified by the sndp argument for the configuration specified by the config argument and signs into the synthesis driver as a client. Note that it allocates memory from the (initialized) ALHeap referenced by the config structure. The values in the following data elements of the ALSndpConfig structure determine how much is allocated:

- maxSounds is the maximum number of sounds that can be allocated to the player.
- maxEvents is the maximum number of internal events to support.
- heap is a pointer to an initialized audio heap.
