[−][src]Module libpulse_binding::version
Version constants and functions.
The constants here mostly relate to those provided in the sys crate and thus the PulseAudio
(PA) C headers.
- They are typically only updated following a new major release of PA.
- Some values are dynamic, depending upon the level of PA compatibility support selected at compile time via Cargo feature flags. For instance if you enable support for PA <= v12 then they will indicate v12, whereas if you exclude v12 support, they will indicate v11.
Note that:
- The minimum supported version of PA is v8.0.
- Where a new major version of PA introduces API changes, such as new function symbols or new enum variants, for instance, we add a Cargo feature to allow selective control over inclusion of those changed, and thus control over the level of compatibility with newer releases that the crate is compiled with.
The get_library_version function always obtains at runtime the version of the actual PA
library in use.
The get_compatibility function gives an indication of the level of compatibility support
built in at compile time, per Cargo feature flags.
Enums
| Compatibility | PulseAudio version compatibility. |
Constants
| API_VERSION | The current API version, from the PA C header. Note, this seems to be separate from the PA
version number, where is was |
| PROTOCOL_VERSION | The current protocol version. |
| TARGET_VERSION | The major and minor components of the newest version of the PulseAudio client library this binding is known to be compatible with. |
| TARGET_VERSION_STRING | The newest version of the PulseAudio client library this binding is known to be compatible with. |
Functions
| check_version | Evaluates to |
| get_compatibility | Returns indication of the level of PulseAudio version compatibility selected at compie time via Cargo feature flags. |
| get_library_version | Gets the version of the library actually in use at runtime. |
