play_memory_fli(3) Allegro manual play_memory_fli(3) NAME play_memory_fli - Plays a FLI or FLC animation from memory. Allegro game programming library. SYNOPSIS #include <allegro.h> int play_memory_fli(const void *fli_data, BITMAP *bmp, int loop, int (*callback)()); DESCRIPTION Plays an Autodesk Animator FLI or FLC animation on the specified BITMAP, reading the data from a copy of the file which is held in mem- ory. You can obtain the `fli_data' pointer by allocating a block of memory and reading an FLI file into it, or by importing an FLI into a grabber datafile. If `loop' is not zero, the player will cycle when it reaches the end of the file, otherwise it will play through the anima- tion once and then return. Read the beginning of chapter "FLIC rou- tines" for a description of the callback parameter. Playing animations from memory is obviously faster than cuing them di- rectly from disk, and is particularly useful with short, looped FLI's. Animations can easily get very large, though, so in most cases you will probably be better just using play_fli(). You can think of this func- tion as a wrapper on top of open_memory_fli(), next_fli_frame() and close_fli(). Example: int ret = play_memory_fli(anim_data, screen, 0, NULL); if (ret == FLI_ERROR) abort_on_error("Corrupted animation data?"); RETURN VALUE The FLI player returns FLI_OK if it reached the end of the file, FLI_ERROR if something went wrong, and the value returned by the call- back function if that was what stopped it.
