SDL_AUDIO_MASK_SIGNED(3)

💖 SDL_AUDIO_MASK_SIGNED 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to the SDL3 FUNCTIONS corner of the manual, where today's main character is a lil macro called SDL_AUDIO_MASK_SIGNED. it's a mask, it's a bit flag, it's lowkey iconic 🎀

---

✨ NAME ✨

SDL_AUDIO_MASK_SIGNED</purl> — the mask of bits inside an SDL_AudioFormat that hold the signed data flag. that's it, that's the whole job 💅

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <SDL3/SDL_audio.h>

#define SDL_AUDIO_MASK_SIGNED        (1u<<15)

so you just pull in the header and the macro is right there, vibing at (1u<<15). no cap. 👑

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay real talk: this macro is the raw bit mask. it shows you which bits in an SDL_AudioFormat are the ones carrying the signed-data flag.

but like… generally you should use SDL_AUDIO_ISSIGNED instead of poking this macro directly. that's the actual bestie-approved move 🫶

not me telling you to use the friendlier macro instead of raw masking… it's giving "use the wrapper, babe" energy, and honestly? correct. 🙈
