Ah ok.
Do you think it's ok to just call Pm_Close? I'm trying to think when
abort would be needed, when Pm_Close seems like it can close up
itself?
This is the current dealloc method, which gets called when an Output
object is closed.
def __dealloc__(self):
if self.debug: print "Closing MIDI output stream and
destroying instance"
err = Pm_Abort(self.midi)
if err < 0: raise Exception, Pm_GetErrorText(err)
err = Pm_Close(self.midi)
if err < 0: raise Exception, Pm_GetErrorText(err)
