💅 IMG_LoadJPG_IO

okay so bestie, welcome to another ✨ SDL_image3 FUNCTIONS ✨ moment — this one's the JPG-direct-loading queen, IMG_LoadJPG_IO(3), and she is very straightforward and very iconic 🎀

🌸 NAME

IMG_LoadJPG_IO — load a JPG image directly. no detours, no drama, just vibes and pixels 💖

✨ SYNOPSIS

#include <SDL3_image/SDL_image.h>

SDL_Surface * IMG_LoadJPG_IO(SDL_IOStream *src);

🦋 DESCRIPTION

okay so here's the tea 🫖 — if you know you definitely have a JPG image, like you're 100% sure, no cap, then you can call this function and it will skip SDL_image's file format detection routines entirely. it's giving "I already know who I am" energy 👑

but lowkey? generally it's better to use the abstract interfaces instead. and also — heads up — there is only an SDL_IOStream interface available here. that's the whole menu, bestie. no other flavour 🌈

🎀 FUNCTION PARAMETERS

  • src — an SDL_IOStream to load image data from. that's the source of truth, the vibe provider, the place the pixels live 🫶

⭐ RETURN VALUE

returns an SDL_Surface, or NULL on error 😭 (so like, always check, fr fr — a NULL is not the moment to be delulu)

👑 AVAILABILITY

this function is available since SDL_image 3.0.0 — she's been here a minute, an OG 💜

🌈 SEE ALSO

like, the whole _IO friend group 🧚 they all ate, honestly.

mwah 💋 that's the page! brought to you by SDL_image, version SDL_image 3.4.4 — go forth and load those JPGs, bestie, you've got this 🔥🦋💖
