Sorry for re-posting, especially if the answer is already "in the queue".
I reformulate the question: Is it more likely that - the already changed function prototypes, which are usable by defining ALSA_PCM_NEW_HW_PARAMS_API, change in future, or - that the deprecated functions will be removed ? I am talking here e.g. of snd_pcm_hw_params_get_period_size() Are there any incompatibilities likely from 0.9.0rc5 to 0.9.0FCS ?

Date: Mon, 04 Nov 2002 11:38:41 -0800 From: Florian Bomers <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Organization: Sun Microsystems, Inc. To: ALSA devel <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Hi, if I released a program now in binary form, is it safer to use the new function prototypes of alsa-lib by defining ALSA_PCM_NEW_HW_PARAMS_API or better use the old, deprecated ones ? My program compiles with or without, and I'd prefer to use the new API, but I noticed that when I compile against rc5, it doesn't even run with rc4, so I fear that my binary compiled against rc5 won't run with later versions of ALSA lib. Thanks for letting me know.
