Re: C program for playing sound

Update, forgot snd_pcm_prepare(), now the problem is that the sound is 
skipping.

#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdint.h>
#include <alsa/asoundlib.h>

#define BITS 16 / 8
#define FRAMEBUFFERSIZE 512 // in samples

     uint32_t sample_size = BITS; // 16 bit
     uint32_t frame_size = sample_size * channels;
     snd_pcm_uframes_t frames = FRAMEBUFFERSIZE;
     snd_pcm_uframes_t frames_per_period = frames / PERIODS;
     int dir = 0; // No idea what this does.
     snd_pcm_hw_params_t *params;

         if (status == -EPIPE)
         {

         }
         size -= FRAMEBUFFERSIZE * STEREO * BITS;
     }
     snd_pcm_drain(handle);
     snd_pcm_close(handle);
     exit(EXIT_SUCCESS);
