ALLEGRO_EVENT_SOURCE(3alleg5)

💖 ALLEGRO_EVENT_SOURCE(3alleg5) 💖

okay bestie, gather round, because we're talking about ALLEGRO_EVENT_SOURCE from the Allegro 5 API and honestly? it's giving main character energy 🎀

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <allegro5/allegro.h>

typedef struct ALLEGRO_EVENT_SOURCE ALLEGRO_EVENT_SOURCE;

---

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so like. an event source is literally any object that can generate events. that's it. that's the whole vibe. 💅

for example, an ALLEGRO_DISPLAY can generate events — yes queen, she's an event source too 👑 — and you can grab the ALLEGRO_EVENT_SOURCE pointer from an ALLEGRO_DISPLAY using al_get_display_event_source(3alleg5).

and here's the iconic part: you can also create your own "user" event sources that emit custom events. DIY era fr fr 🦋✨
