💖 al_get_opengl_program_object 💖

okay bestie, so you know how the manual page is like al_get_opengl_program_object(3alleg5)? yeah, that's this one. it lives in the Allegro 5 manual (section 3alleg5, iykyk) and it's literally just a lil function that hands you your OpenGL program object. no biggie. 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

al_get_opengl_program_object — the Allegro 5 API cutie that fetches your GL program object 💅

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <allegro5/allegro_opengl.h>

GLuint al_get_opengl_program_object(ALLEGRO_SHADER *shader)

like yes, that's the whole thing. short king. 👑

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so here's the tea, bestie: this function returns the OpenGL program object that's associated with your shader. 🫶

but — and this is the important part — it only does that when the platform is ALLEGRO_SHADER_GLSL. that's the vibe check right there.

if the platform is not ALLEGRO_SHADER_GLSL? then it returns 0. that's it. no program object for you. zero. nada. the void. 💀

lowkey important: check your platform before you get all excited, fr fr. 0 is the answer when it's not ALLEGRO_SHADER_GLSL, and 0 is not a valid program object, so don't go using it like one. 😭
