📦 version 4.4.3.1, in fedora 43, fedora 44

✨ pack_fclose_chunk(3) ✨

okay so we're in the Allegro manual, bestie, and this page is about closing a sub-chunk. It's giving file-handle cleanup, no cap. 💅

🌸 NAME 🌸

pack_fclose_chunk — closes a previously opened sub-chunk. Part of the Allegro game programming library, periodt. 💖

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

you pull in the header and call it like this, fr fr:

#include <allegro.h>

PACKFILE *pack_fclose_chunk(PACKFILE *f);

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

okay so this function closes a sub-chunk of a file. Which sub-chunk? The one you previously obtained by calling pack_fopen_chunk(). That's the whole vibe. It's literally the "ok bye, chunk" button. ✨

🎀 RETURN VALUE 🎀

It returns a pointer to the parent of the sub-chunk you just closed. Like, you close the little chunk and get the parent back — main character energy. 👑

Returns NULL if there was some error (eg. you tried to close a PACKFILE which wasn't sub-chunked). So if you try to close something that isn't a sub-chunk, that's a no from the function. 😭

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

Allegro version 4.4.3, bestie — that's the source/version footer energy, and this page is pack_fclose_chunk(3). No date in the footer, just iconic manual vibes. 🫶💖
