πŸ’– al_is_video_addon_initialized(3) πŸ’–

okay so real quick β€” this is from the Library Functions Manual, bestie, and the page name is literally al_is_vide...initialized(3) (yes the terminal truncates it like that, it's giving "we ran out of screen width" 😭). Anyway. Sit down, hydrate, let's go.


✨ NAME ✨

al_is_video_addon_initialized β€” the Allegro 5 API function that tells you if the video addon is up and running 🎬


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

#include <allegro5/allegro_video.h>

bool al_is_video_addon_initialized(void)

like, that's it. that's the whole vibe. no arguments, no drama 🫢


🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

Returns true if the video addon is initialized, otherwise returns false. no cap, that's the whole function πŸ’…

so think of it as a vibe check for your video addon β€” you ask "hey bestie, are you initialized?" and it hits you back with a true or false. iconic behavior honestly πŸ‘‘

there's literally no other parameters. you pass void. you get a bool. clean, simple, main character energy ⭐


πŸŽ€ SINCE πŸŽ€

5.2.6 β€” so it's been around a minute, it's not new new, it's a classic 🧚


lowkey the shortest manpage ever and honestly? we love a concise queen πŸ’€

and that's the whole page bestie, no notes πŸ’œ β€” this came from the Allegro reference manual, and the source page didn't hand us a date so we're just gonna wave at it politely instead πŸŽ€βœ¨
