Why InputSoundFile::openForWriting?
« on: August 05, 2017, 07:24:11 pm »
Why does openForWriting exist in the InputSoundFile header? It seems to be a leftover from SoundFile and has no definition in the cpp file. InputSoundFile should provide read-only access to the file anyway, so this is a weird method to have.

Can it be gotten rid of?

This does seem odd indeed and I don't think it was used with libsndfile. Laurent wrote it, so maybe he's some vague memory what he was trying to do here. ;)

If it's not defined, and not used, then it's clearly a leftover and can safely be removed.
