IMG_LoadCUR_IO(3)

💅 NAME 💅

IMG_LoadCUR_IO(3) — bestie, this is the SDL_image3 FUNCTIONS page for loading a CUR image directly. No format-detection scavenger hunt, just the direct route. ✨

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <SDL3_image/SDL_image.h>

SDL_Surface * IMG_LoadCUR_IO(SDL_IOStream *src);

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Okay so picture this: you know you definitely have a CUR image. Like, no doubt in your group chat. Then you can call this function, and it will skip SDL_image's file format detection routines entirely. 💅

Generally it's better to use the abstract interfaces — that's the vibe — and also, there is only an SDL_IOStream interface available here. So yeah, this one is the SDL_IOStream door, periodt.

---

🎀 FUNCTION PARAMETERS 🎀

Here's the one input, and she's iconic:

• src — an SDL_IOStream to load image data from.

---

💖 RETURN VALUE 💖

Returns SDL surface, or NULL on error. So if it's giving NULL, that's the error signal — not a vibe, but useful. 😭

---

🌈 AVAILABILITY 🌈

This function is available since SDL_image 3.0.0. 🎀
