/// \class sf::SoundRecorder
/// \ingroup audio
///
/// sf::SoundBuffer provides a simple interface to access
/// the audio recording capabilities of the computer
/// (the microphone). As an abstract base class, it only cares
/// about capturing sound samples, the task of making something
/// useful with them is left to the derived class. Note that
/// SFML provides a built-in specialization for saving the
/// captured data to a sound buffer (see sf::SoundBufferRecorder).
///
/// A derived class has only one virtual function to override:
/// \li onProcessSamples provides the new chunks of audio samples while the capture happens
///
/// Moreover, two additionnal virtual functions can be overriden
/// as well if necessary:
/// \li onStart is called before the capture happens, to perform custom initializations
/// \li onStop is called after the capture ends, to perform custom cleanup
///
/// The audio capture feature may not be supported or activated
/// on every platform, thus it is recommended to check its
/// availability with the isAvailable() function. If it returns
/// false, then any attempt to use an audio recorder will fail.
///
/// It is important to note that the audio capture happens in a
/// separate thread, so that it doesn't block the rest of the
/// program. In particular, the onProcessSamples and onStop
/// virtual functions (but not onStart) will be called
/// from this separate thread. It is important to keep this in
/// mind, because you may have to take care of synchronization
/// issues if you share data between threads. 
///
/// Usage example:
/// \code
/// class CustomRecorder : public sf::SoundRecorder
/// {
///     virtual bool onStart() // optional
///     {
///         // Initialize whatever has to be done before the capture starts
///         ...
///
///         // Return true to start playing
///         return true;
///     }
///
///     virtual bool onProcessSamples(const Int16* samples, std::size_t sampleCount)
///     {
///         // Do something with the new chunk of samples (store them, send them, ...)
///         ...
///
///         // Return true to continue playing
///         return true;
///     }
///
///     virtual void onStop() // optional
///     {
///         // Clean up whatever has to be done after the capture ends
///         ...
///     }
/// }
///
/// // Usage
/// if (CustomRecorder::isAvailable())
/// {
///     CustomRecorder recorder;
///     recorder.start();
///     ...
///     recorder.stop();
/// }
/// \endcode
