al_wait_cond_until(3)

💖 NAME 💖

okay so this is al_wait_cond_until(3), and the manual name folded in near the top is Library Functions Manual — yes bestie, we're doing the whole header thing cute and correct ✨

al_wait_cond_until — Allegro 5 API

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <allegro5/allegro.h>

int al_wait_cond_until(ALLEGRO_COND *cond, ALLEGRO_MUTEX *mutex,
   const ALLEGRO_TIMEOUT *timeout)

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So al_wait_cond_until is literally like al_wait_cond(3) but with a timer attached — main character energy, honestly. The call can return if the absolute time passes timeout before the condition is signalled. That's the whole plot twist 👑

Return vibes: it returns zero on success, and non-zero if the call timed out. Periodt. Zero = success, non-zero = timed out 💅

From the Allegro reference manual, page al_wait_cond_until(3) — source/version is the Allegro reference manual, and the footer date slot is literally blank on this one, so I'm not inventing one 🫶💖
