Re: [pygame] Patch - Re-add music support for file-like objects

["René Dudfield" <renesd@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

nice patch!  This will be very useful :)

Do you know which version of sdl_mixer allows rwops for music
(Mix_LoadMUS_RW)?  Does it require an SDL_mixer version check?

Are you able to make make any unit tests for using file likes with the
music mixer?  We're using unittests for all new code now, and it'd
make us feel more safe about adding it in for the 1.8.1 release.

Not really sure how best to test it.  I guess just loading the music
from different filename, and from a python file object would be ok for
now.

here's a start on a test for it...

data_fname = os.path.join('..', 'examples', 'data')
#note, I just added house_lo.ogg to svn.
oggfn = os.path.join(data_fname, 'house_lo.ogg')

pygame.mixer.music.load(oggfn)
pygame.mixer.music.load(open(oggfn))
oggf = open(oggfn)
pygame.mixer.music.load(oggf)



cheers,
