Thread: C++ program to play sound on Mac OS X

Hi, I am trying to write a simple program in C++ and I would really appreciate any help.

Essentially I want the program to play a wav file, using whatever player the computer normally uses. The most promising information I've come across, however, involves PlaySound() and #include<windows.h>, which isn't very useful, as I'm using a Mac. Also I thought there might exist some kind of more general command that isn't platform specific.

Any ideas?

SDL is a multiplatform multimedia library,

They have a mac OS X and classic binary for the library.

Thanks, I'll have a mess around and see if I can make sense of it.
