✨ NAME ✨

al_get_mixer_playing β€” the little function that tells you if a mixer is doing its thing. Allegro 5 API, periodt. πŸ’…


🌈 SYNOPSIS 🌈

#include <allegro5/allegro_audio.h>

bool al_get_mixer_playing(const ALLEGRO_MIXER *mixer)

so you gotta pull in allegro_audio.h first, no cap β€” that's where all the audio girlies live 🎧✨


πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

okay so literally all this does: it returns true if the mixer is playing. that's it. that's the whole function. 🫢

like, you hand it a const ALLEGRO_MIXER *mixer, and it tells you whether that mixer is currently playing. true = yes bestie she's playing πŸ”₯, and if she's not playing, you're not getting a true. it's giving "simple, iconic, does exactly one job and does it well."

ngl the whole function is one (1) sentence of behaviour and i respect that so much. main character energy with zero filler πŸ‘‘
