Reporting Bugs in libsndfile

I am interested in finding and fixing all genuine bugs in libsndfile. Bugs I want to fix include any of the following problems (and probably others) :

• compilation problems on new platforms
• errors being detected during the `make check' process
• segmentation faults occuring inside libsndfile
• libsndfile hanging when opening a file
• supported sound file types being incorrectly read or written
• errors or spelling mistakes in the documentation

When submitting a bug report you must include :

• the operating system you are using
• the compiler you are using
• a description of the problem
• information generated by the sfinfo program (see next paragraph)

If libsndfile compiles and installs correctly but has difficulty reading a particular file or type of file you should run the sfinfo program (from the examples directory of the libsndfile distribution) on the file. See here for an example of the use of the sfinfo program.

Please do not send me a sound file which fails to open under libsndfile unless I specifically ask you to. The above information should usually suffice for most problems.

Once you have the above information you may mail it to me at erikd@zip.com.au.
