libjackasyn is a library that allows you to use programs written for the OSS sound API with the JACK audio server. libjackasyn is a library that can be used for two purposes.
First it can be loaded via the LD_PRELOAD variable, turning OSS applications automatically into JACK-aware applications.
Second, it can be used to link against the program during build time, making it trivial to turn an OSS aware sound application into a JACK aware sound application in a short time.
libjackasyn got its name from the asynchronous manner in which it communicates with the JACK server, which means by using libjackasyn you will introduce an additional delay exactly the size of one JACK audiobuffer (1024 samples or 44 ms with the JACK default settings).
This delay can be reduced by reducing the JACK buffersize. It should not matter for sound generating applications, but it might introduce phasing effects when doing sound processing.
What's New in This Release:
fixed RDONLY and WRONLY handling
act upon jack shutdown, allows to switch between JACK and non-JACK operation
several small bug fixes
debug compilation optional
