Let's keep guidance in public APIs to vendor implementations. "Must outlive it"
is our responsibility, not vendor's.

[slan, 2015/07/29 19:51:55]

Done.

+class CastAudioOutputStream {
+ public:
+  // Audio sources must implement AudioSourceCallback. Calls to this interface

[gunsch, 2015/07/29 17:22:36]

Same here, I think this is guidance to us, not the vendor.

[slan, 2015/07/29 19:51:55]

The vendor code is calling the interface from their implementation. (For
example, when their stream impl needs more data, it should know if it is safe to
call this interface on any thread).

+  // must be made on the same thread on which the stream object is created.

[gunsch, 2015/07/29 17:22:37]

Note: Byungchul recently rewrote the other shlibs such that vendor shlib can
invoke our callbacks from any thread. Can we keep that property here?

[slan, 2015/07/29 19:51:55]

Discussed this offline.

Because |dest| is an "out" param, allowing any thread to call this would require
changing this to something like:

class CastAudioOutputStream {
 public:
  class AudioSourceCallback {
   public:
    ...
    void RequestMoreData(int frames, int delay) = 0;
  }
  ...

  void PushData(void* src, int actual_frames) = 0;
}

(Or we could pass in a function pointer as a callback to RequestMoreData())

It seems easier and cleaner to clearly define the threading model, and verify
that it is being used correctly via DCHECKs on the cast_shell side and
compliance tests.

+  class AudioSourceCallback {
+   public:
+    virtual ~AudioSourceCallback() {}
+
+    // The CastAudioOutputStream calls this to request more data from the
+    // source. This method fills |dest| with |frames| frames of interleaved
+    // data, which takes the following struture for N channels:
+    //
+    //   [ch0, ch1, ..., chN, ch0, ch1, ..., chN, ...]
+    //   |<---- Frame 0 ---->|<---- Frame 1 ---->|...|
+    //
+    // |len| is the size of |dest| in bytes, and must satisfy the following:
+    //
+    //   |len| >= |frames| * (num channels) * (bytes per sample)
+    //
+    // where bytes per sample and channels are properties of the stream. These
+    // can be detemined through GetParameters(). |total_bytes_delay| contains
+    // the current number of bytes of delay buffered by the
+    // CastAudioOutputStream. Returns the number of frames successfully filled.
+    virtual int OnMoreData(void* dest,

[gunsch, 2015/07/29 17:22:37]

naming: GetMoreData?

[slan, 2015/07/29 19:51:55]

Done.
