PX_OPEN_BLOB_FP(3)

💖 PX_OPEN_BLOB_FP 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to PX_open_blob_fp from the Library Functions Manual — it's a lil function that opens Paradox blob files, and yes it's giving deprecated energy but we're still gonna learn it because knowledge is free 💅

✨ NAME ✨

PX_open_blob_fp — opens a Paradox blob file (deprecated, babes 😭)

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

#include <paradox.h>

int PX_open_blob_fp(pxblob_t *pxblob, FILE *fp)

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So here's the vibe: this opens a file that contains blobs, and that file has to have already been opened with fopen() beforehand. Like, you bring the FILE *fp yourself, it's a whole collab 🤝

⚠️ PLOT TWIST: this function is deprecated. No cap. It's lowkey retired. If you're out here writing new code, please don't use this one — the glow-up replacements are PX_set_blob_file() together with PX_get_data_blob() or PX_get_data_graphic instead. periodt 💅

🌸 RETURN VALUE 🌸

• 0 — slay, it worked, success 💖
• -1 — nope, it failed 😭
