Hello BC!
I have recently downloaded, compiled, and installed the OSALP (Open-Source Audio Library Project) libraries on my computer. Supposedly, you can then #include them in any C++ file, like so:

#include <aflibWavFile>

When I do this, my program does not recognize the file or directory. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks!

Classpath issue. Put the libraries with the rest of the libraries. that's about as helpful as I can be because I have no idea what sort of a setup you have.

Alright, thanks! I managed to do the #include, but I don't understand the documentation on how to actually play the dang WAV file! x_X All it describes is what the header file contains, which does me no good, since I'm not up to date on the C++ jargon.

What I usually do in a situation like this is to try and search for a code sample that uses that library. odds are good that you will find something close enough that you will be able to figure out what to do.

No such luck... apparently the library isn't too popular, I guess.
Here's the header file for <aflibWavFile.h>:

/*! \class aflibWavFile
\brief Derived class to read and write WAVE audio files.

This class will read and write audio files of the WAVE (Microsoft Waveform Audio
File Format) format. This module uses the audiofile library to support WAVE. Currently
it supports uncompressed PCM format and G.711 alaw and ulaw at this time.
