💅 al_set_shader_bool(3) 💅

okay so this page is from the Library Functions Manual, bestie — it's al_set_shader_bool(3), and the whole thing is the Allegro 5 API. Let's go, because this one is lowkey iconic. ✨

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

al_set_shader_bool — Allegro 5 API. literally the name, the legend, the main character. 👑

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <allegro5/allegro.h>

bool al_set_shader_bool(const char *name, bool b)

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

okay so what it does: sets a boolean uniform of the target bitmap’s shader. that's the whole assignment, no cap. 💅

It returns true on success. Otherwise it returns false, e.g. if the uniform by that name does not exist in the shader. so if the shader is giving “never heard of her,” you get false — check that uniform name, bestie. 🫶

💜 SINCE 💜

5.1.6 — it's been around since then, periodt. 🦋
