Yeah, there are some known issues with how the PortAudio and RingBuffers code find each other. I'm working on a new BinaryBuilder-based system for both of them that should alleviate the issue.

does it help if you run build RingBuffers and build PortAudio from the pkg> prompt?

Yeah, it seemingly builds everything, but it throws the same error.

what versions of PortAudio and RingBuffers are you using? Does it work if you try the master branch of RingBuffers and the julia1 branch of PortAudio?

mikelserralde · 2019-06-24T15:26:42Z

I've been running the latest version of RingBuffers and the #julia1 branch of PortAudio. It still has been throwing the same errors.

ssfrr · 2019-06-24T15:37:44Z

Hmm, I'm not sure what's going on there then. I'm not on my windows setup very often so I'm not sure I'll get a chance to troubleshoot this in the near future.

mikelserralde · 2019-06-24T15:39:34Z

Thank you. I'll keep on trying and update if any progress is made.

kyokke · 2019-07-22T14:30:59Z

Hi I got same error as @mikelserralde but,
After I call some functions defined in RingBuffers, using PortAudio seems work.

I have not confirm whether all PortAudio.jl functions works correctly yet but
I hope it would be helpful for you.

ssfrr · 2019-07-22T19:52:41Z

Thanks, that's a useful clue. The pa_shim C library depends on the functions in the pa_ringbuffer library that ships with RingBuffers.jl. I thought it would have already been loaded because using PortAudio will internally call using RingBuffers, but maybe for some reason that's not happening. Does it work if you just call using RingBuffers first, or do you actually need to call functions from it?

kyokke · 2019-07-22T23:56:27Z

Without calling actual function, the same error occurs.
The actual path to userfolder is replaced by "%USERFOLDER%"

I have one thing to apology.Originally I got the same error as @mikelserralde but when I send the previous comment, my error was different than @mikelserralde.

I will clean my Julia environment and make clear how and when different error was generated.

kyokke · 2019-07-23T15:13:04Z

I could regenerate the problem from clean julia environment as follows

My Environment and version info:

At first, I installed packages and build them

now you can regenerate the problem same as @mikelserralde

I don't know why but Libdl.find_library cannot locate the dll so ,
I forced pa_shim() function to returns the full path of the dll on my PC.
restart julia and then:

julia> using Libdl
julia> Libdl.dlopen("%USER_FOLDER%.julia/packages/RingBuffers/P7bLa/deps/usr/lib/pa_ringbuffer_x86_64-w64-mingw32.dll")

I could compile the PortAudio and it seems work! Please note that I had to dlopen pa_ringbuffer dll to compile PortAudio.

when you restart the julia, you get InitError by

QUESTION: RingBuffer v1.1.3 and SampledSignals v2.0.0 are suitable version for PortAudio on the branch named "julia1" ?

RingBuffers should be at master - does that help?

@ssfrr thank you for reply.

recompile of PortAudio was failed in init of PortAudio:

I have another observation.
For pa_ringbuffer.dll and libportaudio-2.dll, Libdl.dlopen, Libdl.find_library and ccall seems work correctly but for pa_shim*.dll , Libdl.dlopen and Libdl.find_library was failed.

According to the a series of observation, trouble would be pa_shim and integration of DLLs of RingBuffers and pa_shim.

I will look into this problem and send report to you but It will take a while because I am completely new to Julia and have to learn how to make the packages and modules, how to debug and other related items.

It would be helpful for me if you can give me the information about version combination of PortAudio.jl and its dependencies which is well tested on Windows.

kyokke · 2019-08-26T11:07:33Z

I could specify one of the causes of this issue.

pa_ringbuffer*.dll , which is dependencies of pa_shim*.dll, cannot be found from dll search paths,
when pa_shim*.dll is loaded. Loading pa_shim*.dll is failed if its dependencies cannot be loaded.

I have confirmed that I could import PortAudio packages successfully with the following workarounds:

if you use RingBuffers#master, rename pa_ringbuffer.dll to pa_ringbuffer_x86_64-w64-mingw32.dll
copy pa_ringbuffer_x86_64-w64-mingw32.dll (renamed dll from RingBuffers#maseter or original dll from RingBuffers#v1.1.3) into the same folder as pa_shim*.dll

So This issue in Windows could be solved by ...

adding path of pa_ringbuffer*.dll before you load pa_shim*.dll
update pa_shim*.dll to match dll name of RingBuffers.jl ( It might be one option to modfy PortAudio.jl to use BinaryBuilder.jl )

Even afeter the above workarounds,
I have "concurrency violation detected" Error during write() and read() function. I think this error should be discussed in other ticket.
