NAME
  AFSilence - fill a block with	silence	based on encoding

SYNTAX
  #include <AF/AFUtils.h>

  extern void AFSilence(AEncodeType encoding, void* buffer, int	nUnits);

DESCRIPTION
  AFSilence will fill a	buffer with the	appropriate silence data for the
  specified encoding.  The buffer should be large enough to hold the data for
  the number of	units specified	as an argument.

ARGUMENTS

  encoding
       Must be one of the known	encoding types as listed in <audio.h>.

  buffer
       A pointer to a client buffer large enough to hold nUnits	of silence
       data for	the specified encoding type.  The size in bytes	is equal to
       AF_samples_sizes[encoding].bytes_per_unit*nUnits.

  nUnits
       The number of units of silence that should be generated and written to
       buffer.
