save to use new API ?

save to use new API ?

[Florian Bomers]

Hi,

if I released a program now in binary form, is it safer to use the new function
prototypes of alsa-lib by defining ALSA_PCM_NEW_HW_PARAMS_API or better use the
old, deprecated ones ?

My program compiles with or without, and I'd prefer to use the new API, but I
noticed that when I compile against rc5, it doesn't even run with rc4, so I fear
that my binary compiled against rc5 won't run with later versions of ALSA lib.

Thanks for letting me know.
Florian
