/* CHANGELOG FOR PORTMIDI
* (see ../CHANGELOG.txt)
*
* NOTES ON HOST ERROR REPORTING:
*
* PortMidi errors (of type PmError) are generic,
* system-independent errors. When an error does not map to one of
* the more specific PmErrors, the catch-all code pmHostError is
* returned. This means that PortMidi has retained a more specific
* system-dependent error code. The caller can get more information
* by calling Pm_GetHostErrorText() to get a text string describing
* the error. Host errors can arise asynchronously from callbacks,
* * so there is no specific return code. Asynchronous errors are
* checked and reported by Pm_Poll. You can also check by calling
* Pm_HasHostError(). If this returns TRUE, Pm_GetHostErrorText()
* will return a text description of the error.
*
* NOTES ON COMPILE-TIME SWITCHES
*
* DEBUG assumes stdio and a console. Use this if you want
* automatic, simple error reporting, e.g. for prototyping. If
* you are using MFC or some other graphical interface with no
* console, DEBUG probably should be undefined.
* PM_CHECK_ERRORS more-or-less takes over error checking for
* return values, stopping your program and printing error
* messages when an error occurs. This also uses stdio for
* console text I/O. You can selectively disable this error
* checking by declaring extern int pm_check_errors; and
* setting pm_check_errors = FALSE; You can also reenable.

/**
Pm_Initialize() is the library initialization function - call this before
using the library.
*NOTE:* PortMidi scans for available devices when #Pm_Initialize
is called. To observe subsequent changes in the available
devices, you must shut down PortMidi by calling #Pm_Terminate and
then restart by calling #Pm_Initialize again. *IMPORTANT*: On
MacOS, #Pm_Initialize *must* always be called on the same
thread. Otherwise, changes in the available MIDI devices will
*not* be seen by PortMidi. As an example, if you start PortMidi in
a thread for processing MIDI, do not try to rescan devices by
calling #Pm_Initialize in a GUI thread. Instead, start PortMidi
the first time and every time in the GUI thread. Alternatively,
let the GUI request a restart in the MIDI thread. (These
restrictions only apply to macOS.) Speaking of threads, on all
platforms, you are allowed to call #Pm_Initialize in one thread,
yet send MIDI or poll for incoming MIDI in another
thread. However, PortMidi is not "thread safe," which means you
cannot allow threads to call PortMidi functions concurrently.
@return pmNoError.
PortMidi is designed to support multiple interfaces (such as ALSA,
CoreMIDI and WinMM). It is possible to return pmNoError because there
are no supported interfaces. In that case, zero devices will be
available.

The result (but not pmNoDevice) can be passed to Pm_OpenMidi().
The use of these functions is not recommended. There is no natural
"default device" on any system, so defaults must be set by users.
(Currently, PortMidi just returns the first device it finds as
"default", so if there *is* a default, implementors should use
pm_add_device to add system default input and output devices
first.)
The recommended solution is pass the burden to applications. It is
easy to scan devices with PortMidi and build a device menu, and to
save menu selections in application preferences for next
time. This is my recommendation for any GUI program. For simple
command-line applications and utilities, see pm_test where all the
test programs now accept device numbers on the command line and/or
prompt for their entry.
On linux, you can create virtual ports and use an external program
to set up inter-application and device connections.
Some advice for preferences: MIDI devices used to be built-in or
plug-in cards, so the numbers rarely changed. Now MIDI devices are
often plug-in USB devices, so device numbers change, and you
probably need to design to reinitialize PortMidi to rescan
devices. MIDI is pretty stateless, so this isn't a big problem,
although it means you cannot find a new device while playing or
recording MIDI.
Since device numbering can change whenever a USB device is plugged
in, preferences should record *names* of devices rather than
device numbers. It is simple enough to use string matching to find
a prefered device, so PortMidi does not provide any built-in
lookup function.

@param bufferSize the number of output events to be buffered
waiting for output. In some cases -- see below -- PortMidi does
not buffer output at all and merely passes data to a lower-level
API, in which case \p bufferSize is ignored. Since MIDI speeds now
vary from 1 to 50 or more messages per ms (over USB), put some
thought into this number. E.g. if latency is 20ms and you want to
burst 100 messages in that time (5000 messages per second), you
should set \p bufferSize to at least 100. The default on Windows
assumes an average rate of 500 messages per second and in this
example, output would be slowed waiting for free buffers.
@param latency the delay in milliseconds applied to timestamps
to determine when the output should actually occur. (If latency is
< 0, 0 is assumed.) If latency is zero, timestamps are ignored
and all output is delivered immediately. If latency is greater
than zero, output is delayed until the message timestamp plus the
latency. (NOTE: the time is measured relative to the time source
indicated by time_proc. Timestamps are absolute, not relative
delays or offsets.) In some cases, PortMidi can obtain better
timing than your application by passing timestamps along to the
device driver or hardware, so the best strategy to minimize jitter
is: wait until the real time to send the message, compute the
message, attach the *ideal* output time (not the current real
time, because some time may have elapsed), and send the
message. The \p latency will be added to the timestamp, and
provided the elapsed computation time has not exceeded \p latency,
the message will be delivered according to the timestamp. If the
real time is already past the timestamp, the message will be
delivered as soon as possible. Latency may also help you to
synchronize MIDI data to audio data by matching \p latency to the
audio buffer latency.
@param time_proc (address of) a pointer to a procedure that
returns time in milliseconds. It may be NULL, in which case a
default millisecond timebase (PortTime) is used. If the
application wants to use PortTime, it should start the timer (call
Pt_Start) before calling #Pm_OpenInput or #Pm_OpenOutput. If the
application tries to start the timer *after* #Pm_OpenInput or
#Pm_OpenOutput, it may get a #ptAlreadyStarted error from #Pt_Start,
and the application's preferred time resolution and callback
function will be ignored. \p time_proc times are used to schedule
outgoing MIDI data (when latency is non-zero), usually by mapping
from time_proc timestamps to internal system timestamps to
maintain the precision of system-supported timing.
@param time_info a pointer passed to time_proc.
@return #pmNoError and places a pointer to a valid #PortMidiStream
in the stream argument. If the operation fails, a nonzero error
code is returned (see PMError) and the value of \p stream is
invalid.
Note: ALSA appears to have a fixed-size priority queue for timed
output messages. Testing indicates the queue can hold a little
over 400 3-byte MIDI messages. Thus, you can send 10,000
messages/second if the latency is 30ms (30ms * 10000 msgs/sec *
0.001 sec/ms = 300 msgs), but not if the latency is 50ms
(resulting in about 500 pending messages, which is greater than
the 400 message limit). Since timestamps in ALSA are relative,
they are of less value than absolute timestamps in macOS and
Windows. This is a limitation of ALSA and apparently a design
flaw.
Example 1: If I provide a timestamp of 5000, latency is 1, and
time_proc returns 4990, then the desired output time will be when
time_proc returns timestamp+latency = 5001. This will be 5001-4990
= 11ms from now.
Example 2: If I want to send at exactly 5010, and latency is 10, I
should wait until 5000, compute the messages and provide a
timestamp of 5000. As long as computation takes less than 10ms,
the message will be delivered at time 5010.
Example 3 (recommended): It is often convenient to ignore latency.
E.g. if a sequence says to output at time 5010, just wait until
5010, compute the message and use 5010 for the timestamp. Delivery
will then be at 5010+latency, but unless you are synchronizing to
something else, the absolute delay by latency will not matter.
Any stream that is successfully opened should eventually be closed
by calling Pm_Close().

timing may be erratic, but since timestamps of zero mean "send
immediately," initialization messages with zero timestamps can be
written without a functioning time reference and without
problems. Before the first MIDI message with a non-zero timestamp
is written to the stream, the time reference must begin to advance
(for example, if the time_proc computes time based on audio
samples, time might begin to advance when an audio stream becomes
active). After time_proc return values become valid, and BEFORE
writing the first non-zero timestamped MIDI message, call
Pm_Synchronize() so that PortMidi can observe the difference
between the current time_proc value and its MIDI stream time.

/**
All MIDI data comes in the form of PmEvent structures. A sysex
message is encoded as a sequence of PmEvent structures, with each
structure carrying 4 bytes of the message, i.e. only the first
PmEvent carries the status byte.
All other MIDI messages take 1 to 3 bytes and are encoded in a whole
PmMessage with status in the low-order byte and remaining bytes
unused, i.e., a 3-byte note-on message will occupy 3 low-order bytes
of PmMessage, leaving the high-order byte unused.
Note that MIDI allows nested messages: the so-called "real-time" MIDI
messages can be inserted into the MIDI byte stream at any location,
including within a sysex message. MIDI real-time messages are one-byte
messages used mainly for timing (see the MIDI spec). PortMidi retains
the order of non-real-time MIDI messages on both input and output, but
it does not specify exactly how real-time messages are processed. This
is particulary problematic for MIDI input, because the input parser
must either prepare to buffer an unlimited number of sysex message
bytes or to buffer an unlimited number of real-time messages that
arrive embedded in a long sysex message. To simplify things, the input
parser is allowed to pass real-time MIDI messages embedded within a
sysex message, and it is up to the client to detect, process, and
remove these messages as they arrive.
When receiving sysex messages, the sysex message is terminated
by either an EOX status byte (anywhere in the 4 byte messages) or
by a non-real-time status byte in the low order byte of the message.
If you get a non-real-time status byte but there was no EOX byte, it
means the sysex message was somehow truncated. This is not
considered an error; e.g., a missing EOX can result from the user
disconnecting a MIDI cable during sysex transmission.
A real-time message can occur within a sysex message. A real-time
message will always occupy a full PmEvent with the status byte in
the low-order byte of the PmEvent message field. (This implies that
the byte-order of sysex bytes and real-time message bytes may not
be preserved -- for example, if a real-time message arrives after
3 bytes of a sysex message, the real-time message will be delivered
first. The first word of the sysex message will be delivered only
after the 4th byte arrives, filling the 4-byte PmEvent message field.
The timestamp field is observed when the output port is opened with
a non-zero latency. A timestamp of zero means "use the current time",
which in turn means to deliver the message with a delay of
latency (the latency parameter used when opening the output port.)
Do not expect PortMidi to sort data according to timestamps --
messages should be sent in the correct order, and timestamps MUST
be non-decreasing. See also "Example" for Pm_OpenOutput() above.
A sysex message will generally fill many #PmEvent structures. On
output to a #PortMidiStream with non-zero latency, the first timestamp
on sysex message data will determine the time to begin sending the
message. PortMidi implementations may ignore timestamps for the
remainder of the sysex message.
On input, the timestamp ideally denotes the arrival time of the
status byte of the message. The first timestamp on sysex message
data will be valid. Subsequent timestamps may denote
when message bytes were actually received, or they may be simply
copies of the first timestamp.
Timestamps for nested messages: If a real-time message arrives in
the middle of some other message, it is enqueued immediately with
the timestamp corresponding to its arrival time. The interrupted
non-real-time message or 4-byte packet of sysex data will be enqueued
later. The timestamp of interrupted data will be equal to that of
the interrupting real-time message to insure that timestamps are
non-decreasing.

The Buffer Overflow Problem
The problem: if an input overflow occurs, data will be lost,
ultimately because there is no flow control all the way back to
the data source. When data is lost, the receiver should be
notified and some sort of graceful recovery should take place,
e.g. you shouldn't resume receiving in the middle of a long sysex
message.
With a lock-free fifo, which is pretty much what we're stuck with
to enable portability to the Mac, it's tricky for the producer and
consumer to synchronously reset the buffer and resume normal
operation.
Solution: the entire buffer managed by PortMidi will be flushed
when an overflow occurs. The consumer (Pm_Read()) gets an error
message (#pmBufferOverflow) and ordinary processing resumes as
soon as a new message arrives. The remainder of a partial sysex
message is not considered to be a "new message" and will be
flushed as well.

within SysEx messages, but only on 4-byte boundaries so
that SysEx data always uses a full 4 bytes (except possibly
at the end). Each real-time message always occupies a full
PmEvent (3 of the 4 bytes in the PmEvent's message are
ignored) even when embedded in a SysEx message.
Use Pm_WriteSysEx() to write a sysex message stored as a contiguous
array of bytes.
Sysex data may contain embedded real-time messages.
\p buffer is managed by the caller. The buffer may be destroyed
as soon as this call returns.
