Audio / [SOLVED] Qt Resources - Loading a sound from a ressource

« on: October 16, 2014, 06:22:52 pm »

Hi guys,

First thanks SFML, I just tried it for the first time and it works so easily!

In my Qt project, all my sounds are mapped to resources,
I would like to play the sound from the resource instead of from the hard drive.

I can play the sound fine when I load from the disk, however, is there a way to use the ressource syntax to load a sound?

Thanks in advance!

    if (!buffer.loadFromFile(":/sound/resume")) {
        qDebug() << "cant play";
        return 0;
    }
//    if (!buffer.loadFromFile("C:\\Dropbox\\PowerVelo2\\sound\\CadenceTooHigh.wav")) {
//        qDebug() << "cant play";
//        return 0;
//    }
    sf::Sound sound(buffer);
    sound.play();

I suspect I may have to use "loadFromMemory" as the file should be in memory (it is inside the .exe)
