virtual bool init(
 OSDictionary *properties);

Parameters

  • properties:

    The default properties for the IOAudioEngine.

Return Value

Overview

This function is responsible for initialization of all of the general attributes of a new IOAudioEngine. It initializes instance variables to their default values and allocates the shared status buffer. Subclasses will likely want to override this method and do all of their common initialization in their implementation. They do need to be sure to call IOAudioEngine's implementation of init and pay attention to the return value.
