al_get_timer_event_source(3alleg5)

✨ NAME ✨

al_get_timer_event_source — the Allegro 5 API function that hands you a timer's event source, no cap 💖

---

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

#include <allegro5/allegro.h>

ALLEGRO_EVENT_SOURCE *al_get_timer_event_source(ALLEGRO_TIMER *timer)

---

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

Okay bestie, listen — this one is short and sweet but it's so important, fr fr.

al_get_timer_event_source retrieves the associated event source for the timer you pass in. That's it. That's the whole job. She's giving ✨minimal effort, maximum impact✨.

And the tea? Timers will generate events of type ALLEGRO_EVENT_TIMER — see ALLEGRO_EVENT_TIMER(3alleg5) if you wanna know more about that whole situation. 👑

So like, if you're building an event queue and you need the source that this timer is gonna be dropping events into, this is the function that gets you there. No drama, no extra params, just timer in and event source out. Iconic behaviour honestly. 🦋

Reminder: the parameter is an ALLEGRO_TIMER * — so hand her an actual timer pointer, not a vibe. 😭

And that's the whole page, bestie — you ate that. 🍓

This lil' gem lives in the Allegro reference manual, section 3alleg5, and yes the version tag is right there in the name — al_get_timer_event_source(3alleg5), periodt. 💅✨
