Wwise SDK 2018.1.11

Initialize the sound engine.

Warning

This function is not thread-safe.

Remarks

The initial settings should be initialized using AK::SoundEngine::GetDefaultInitSettings() and AK::SoundEngine::GetDefaultPlatformInitSettings() to fill the structures with their default settings. This is not mandatory, but it helps avoid backward compatibility problems.

Returns

• AK_Success if the initialization was successful
• AK_MemManagerNotInitialized if the memory manager is not available or not properly initialized
• AK_StreamMgrNotInitialized if the stream manager is not available or not properly initialized
• AK_SSEInstructionsNotSupported if the machine does not support SSE instruction (only on the PC)
• AK_InsufficientMemory or AK_Fail if there is not enough memory available to initialize the sound engine properly
• AK_InvalidParameter if some parameters are invalid
• AK_Fail if the sound engine is already initialized, or if the provided settings result in insufficient resources for the initialization.
