API Notes: CoreMIDI framework¶
The full API is described in Apple’s documentation, both the C and Objective-C APIs are available (but see the API Notes below).
These bindings are accessed through the CoreMIDI package (that is, import CoreMIDI).
Note
This is fairly low-level API mostly not based on CoreFoundation or Objective-C types. Because of this users will have to perform manual reference counting.
I’m also not sure if these bindings are correct.
API Notes¶
The driver implementation interface is not available from Python.
The following functions are not available from Python:
MIDIEndpointSetRefConsMIDIEndpointGetRefConsMIDIDestinationCreateWithBlockMIDI1UPSysExArray
Type MIDIUniversalMessage is not available from Python at this time
because it contains a C union. Because of that MIDIUniversalMessage
is not available either.
Manual bindings needed¶
The APIs below require manual bindings and are not yet available:
