This is a work in progress patch. Can you tell me if I am proceeding in the right direction? I not sure if I have written line 29 in WaveShaperNode.cpp correctly.

Float32Arrays aren't refcounted. They're JS objects. You'll want to deal with them like BiquadFilterNode does. Although actually I just realized that making the Float32Array a settable attribute has some problems. I'll write to the public-audio list about that.

Note that you also need to setup and AudioNodeEngine for this, create the audio node stream, pass in the curve array to the engine, add tests for this, etc. I suggest we wait here until the spec issue is resolved. ::: content/media/webaudio/WaveShaperNode.cpp @@ +15,5 @@ > + NS_IMPL_CYCLE_COLLECTION_UNLINK_NSCOMPTR(mCurve) > +NS_IMPL_CYCLE_COLLECTION_UNLINK_END > +NS_IMPL_CYCLE_COLLECTION_TRAVERSE_BEGIN_INHERITED(WaveShaperNode, AudioNode) > + NS_IMPL_CYCLE_COLLECTION_TRAVERSE_NATIVE_PTR(tmp->mCurve, Float32Array, "shaping curve") > +NS_IMPL_CYCLE_COLLECTION_TRAVERSE_END When the issue of the curve attribute is resolved on the public-audio list, you may need to use NS_HOLD_JS_OBJECTS and NS_DROP_JS_OBJECTS here similar to the AudioBuffer class. ::: content/media/webaudio/WaveShaperNode.h @@ +23,5 @@ > + NS_DECL_ISUPPORTS_INHERITED > + NS_DECL_CYCLE_COLLECTION_CLASS_INHERITED(WaveShaperNode, AudioNode) > + > + virtual JSObject* WrapObject(JSContext *aCx, JSObject* aScope, > + bool* aTriedToWrap); Nit: indentation. @@ +32,5 @@ > + } > + virtual uint32_t MaxNumberOfOutputs() const MOZ_FINAL MOZ_OVERRIDE > + { > + return 1; > + } None of these two should be needed. @@ +40,5 @@ > + return mCurve; > + } > + > +private: > + nsRefPtr<Float32Array> mCurve; What roc said.

I'm going to steal this bug and finish your patch Sankha, hope that's OK. :-)

So add 0.5f before casting to int32_t. However, better still I think we should use linear interpolation. There was consensus for this on the list. I.e. consider both the "round up" and "round down" indices and use the sum weighted by the distance from the true point to the array indices.

But we can do that as a followup I guess.

Let's get consensus on the neutering on the list first and do it as a follow-up. Should be pretty easy.

Mass moving Web Audio bugs to the Web Audio component. Filter on duckityduck.

Could add some tests to check that the signal is processed correctly, including checking that zero input corresponds to the centre value of the curve array and checking that rounding is correct when just below zero.
