AUSOUNDCREATEDATAFROMBUCKET(3x)

πŸ“¦ version 1.9.5, in fedora 43, fedora 44

πŸ’– AuSoundCreateDataFromBucket β€” like, the whole vibe πŸ’–

okay bestie, so this one lives in section 3 of the manual β€” the library functions manual β€” and it's called AuSoundCreateDataFromBucket. yes the name is long. no we are not shortening it. it's iconic and it earns every letter. πŸŽ€


✨ NAME ✨

AuSoundCreateDataFromBucket β€” copy the data from a bucket into local memory.

that's it. that's the whole job. bucket data goes brrr into your own little memory space. πŸͺ£βž‘️🧠


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <audio/audiolib.h>
#include <audio/soundlib.h>

AuPointer AuSoundCreateDataFromBucket(server, bucket, sound, status)
    AuServer *server;
    AuBucketID bucket;
    Sound *sound; /* RETURN */
    AuStatus *status; /* RETURN */

two headers, one function, four args. very demure, very mindful. ✨


πŸ¦‹ ARGUMENTS πŸ¦‹

  • server β€” the connection to the audio server. like, which server are we talking to, babes? this one.
  • bucket β€” the bucket you're pulling the data out of. the source. the origin story.
  • sound β€” this one's a RETURN value, so it hands you back the description of the audio data. you don't give it info, it gives you info. πŸ’…
  • status β€” also a RETURN. if it's non-NULL, the output buffer gets flushed and you get the status straight from the server. so if you wanna know how it went, pass something in here. if you pass NULL, you're just... not asking. and that's your choice bestie 🫢

πŸ’œ DESCRIPTION πŸ’œ

so AuSoundCreateDataFromBucket reads the audio data out of bucket and hands you back a pointer to that data. that's the whole plot. 🎬

and if something goes wrong? you get NULL. no data, no pointer, just vibes and sadness. 😭 so like, check your return value, fr fr.


πŸ’€ ERRORS πŸ’€

  • AuBadBucket. yeah. the bucket was bad. not in a slay way. in an error way.

πŸ‘‘ SEE ALSO πŸ‘‘

  • AuSoundCreateFileFromBucket β€” same energy, different destination. go read it, iykyk.
  • audiolib β€” the Network Audio System C Language Interface. the mothership. the blueprint. read it. 🌈

and that's the page, bestie!! this one's from soundlib, version 1.9.5, and yeah β€” the page header and footer both just repeat the name AuSoundCre...aFromBucket(3) because the title was too long for the margin and honestly? relatable. truncated queen behavior. stay hydrated, go check your return pointers, mwah πŸ’–βœ¨
