anyone know of a cross platform midi library that supports sndio (BSD) and whatever haiku uses? rtmidi and portaudio both do not list haiku or BSDs as supported platforms

@aeva@mastodon.gamedev.place https://github.com/libsdl-org/SDL_native_midi might go in the right direction (it even supports haiku, but not sndio, but maybe it's not too much work to add that?)

@aeva@mastodon.gamedev.place https://github.com/celtera/libremidi I’ve been keeping an eye on this for midi 2.0 support; looks like it has FreeBSD ports but I’m not sure if that means supporting sndio in the way you’re looking for (I’m assuming distribution agnostic), I’m not familiar with bsd

@aeva@mastodon.gamedev.place Lest you get any ideas about trying to contribute to PortMIDI, let me warn you: don't. That guy was the most frustrating guy I ever attempted to work with. https://github.com/PortMidi/portmidi/pull/3#issuecomment-998326170
