Check if music has ended, OnStopped?

Question

Is it possible to make SFML 1.6 handle end of music by itself? Currently I have this:

//in music.cpp
music.Play()

//in main.cpp
//on every frame check for end of music
if(music.getStatus() == Sound::Stopped)
    loadNextMusicFile();

Isn't there a way in SFML to just say, "Play until music stopped, then load the next," without implementing this yourself? Or at least a more "elegant" way of noticing when the music stopped (like an OnStopped event)?

Answer 1

If you look at the code from Music.cpp

bool Music::OnGetData(SoundStream::Chunk& data)
{
    Lock lock(myMutex);

    // Fill the chunk parameters
    data.Samples   = &mySamples[0];
    data.NbSamples = myFile->Read(&mySamples[0], mySamples.size());

    // Check if we have reached the end of the audio file
    return data.NbSamples == mySamples.size();
}

You see that it will return false when its at the end of the file.

So what you want to do is subclass sf::Music. e.g.

class MyMusic : public sf::Music
{
   bool OnGetData(SoundStream::Chunk& data)
   {
       bool running = sf::Music::OnGetData(data);
       if(!running)
          OnMusicEnd();
       return running;
   }
public:
   void OnMusicEnd()
   {
       // ...
   }

};
