Generating sound of a particular frequency using gcc in ubuntu?

How can I generate sound of a particular frequency in C/C++ . I run Ubuntu 10.04 and use gcc. There is a void sound(int frequency) fun开发者_JS百科ction on TurboC for Windows. Is there an equivalent for gcc?

Below is a code utilizing PortAudio library to generate a square audio wave of given frequency. On Linux compile with gcc buzzer.c -o buzzer -lportaudio. Should compile fine for Windows as well. I do not know how the sound(int frequency) behaves exactly, but below should be able to simulate any usage of old-style buzzers. You might need a portaudio-devel (or equivalent for Ubuntu, portaudio-dev?) package and for Pulse Audio maybe some newer version of PortAudio that is in your repo. Compiling it is not a problem. You can use the below code on the terms of WTFPL license. :-) (it is derived from a PortAudio example)

#include <stdio.h>
#include <math.h>
#include "portaudio.h"
#include <stdint.h>
#include <unistd.h> // for usleep()

#define SAMPLE_RATE   (44100)
#define FRAMES_PER_BUFFER  (64)

    uint32_t up_count;

    uint32_t counter;
    uint32_t prev_freq;
    uint32_t freq;
} paTestData;

//volatile int freq = 0;

/* This routine will be called by the PortAudio engine when audio is needed.
** It may called at interrupt level on some machines so don't do anything
** that could mess up the system like calling malloc() or free().
