al_get_current_transform(3alleg5)
β¨ NAME β¨
al_get_current_transform β literally the Allegro 5 API, bestie π
okay so this is the al_get_current_transform(3alleg5) page, and it's a short one but it's a good one, so let's go π¦
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
#include <allegro5/allegro.h>
const ALLEGRO_TRANSFORM *al_get_current_transform(void)
that's it. that's the whole signature. she's simple, she's clean, she serves π
π DESCRIPTION π
Okay so picture this: you've got a target bitmap, right? And somebody (maybe you, maybe your code, no judgement) called al_use_transform(3alleg5) on it and set a transformation. Now you're sitting there like... what was that transform tho π
That's literally what this function is for, bestie. It hands you back the transformation of the current target bitmap β the one that got set by al_use_transform(3alleg5).
β οΈ but here's the tea: if there is no target bitmap at all, this function returnsNULL. Not a transform, not a default, justNULL. So vibe check your pointers before you dereference, fr fr π
Returns: a pointer to the current transformation. that's it. that's the whole return value. iconic π
π SEE ALSO π
al_get_current_projection_transform(3alleg5)β the projection-flavoured sibling, go say hi π«Ά
and that's the page!! this was the Allegro reference manual, al_get_current_transform(3alleg5), and like all good things she's short and sweet and probably older than you think π stay slay, protect your pointers, and remember: no target bitmap means NULL, periodt πβ¨
