✨ AuFormatToDefine(3) ✨

ok so bestie, welcome to the Library Functions Manual section of the audioutil docs 💖 this one's a little one-page wonder, a tiny icon, a single-function baddie. it's giving "short but essential." 🎀

🌸 NAME 🌸

AuFormatToDefine — the way to get the C-preprocess define for a format. yep. that's the whole job. no cap. 💅

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

#include <audio/audiolib.h>

char *AuFormatToDefine(format)
    unsigned int format;

ok like look at her, so demure, so mindful 🫶

🍓 ARGUMENTS 🍓

  • format — this is the audio data format you're asking about. an audio data format. that's it. she's specifying an audio data format, bestie, that's her whole arc.

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

AuFormatToDefine returns the C-preprocessor define for format — or it returns "unknown" if format isn't valid. 😭

that's it. that's the function. it looks at your format, hands you back the define string, and if you gave it something fake it just goes "unknown" at you. no drama, no crash, no yelling. just "unknown." lowkey respectful of your feelings ngl. 🙈

bestie reminder: "unknown" comes back as an actual string, so don't be out here treating a nonsense format like it's a valid one. check before you vibe. ⭐
