💅 al_map_rgba(3) — Library Functions Manual 💅

okay so bestie, we're in the Library Functions Manual and this page is all about al_map_rgba, from the Allegro 5 API. It's giving color conversion, and it's honestly iconic.

🌸 NAME 🌸

  • al_map_rgba — Allegro 5 API

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <allegro5/allegro.h>

ALLEGRO_COLOR al_map_rgba(
   unsigned char r, unsigned char g, unsigned char b, unsigned char a)

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

okay so what this does: it takes r, g, b, and a — each one ranging from 0-255 — and converts them into an ALLEGRO_COLOR(3). Slay. That's the whole glow-up.

And the main character detail: this function can be called before Allegro is initialized. No cap, it's lowkey convenient like that. 🦋
