al_get_ope...ram_object(3)

✨ NAME ✨

al_get_opengl_program_object — Allegro 5 API

(from the Library Functions Manual, bestie 🫶 — manual name folded in right here instead of copying that header line, periodt)

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

okay so you include this:

#include <allegro5/allegro_opengl.h>

GLuint al_get_opengl_program_object(ALLEGRO_SHADER *shader)

That's literally the signature: GLuint return type, al_get_opengl_program_object function name, and one parameter, ALLEGRO_SHADER *shader. Slay 💅.

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

This returns the OpenGL program object associated with this shader, but only if the platform is ALLEGRO_SHADER_GLSL 🦋.

If the platform is not ALLEGRO_SHADER_GLSL, then it returns 0 😭. That's it. Zero. Nada. The number 0, no cap.

bestie reminder: the original says “if the platform is ALLEGRO_SHADER_GLSL” and “Otherwise, returns 0” — so keep that vibe check in mind, fr fr 💖.
