Allegro 5 api

Usage

#include <allegro5/allegro.h>
bool al_save_bitmap_f(ALLEGRO_FILE *fp, const char *ident,
   ALLEGRO_BITMAP *bitmap)

Overview

Saves an ALLEGRO_BITMAP(3) to an ALLEGRO_FILE(3) stream. The file type is determined by the passed `ident' parameter, which is a file name extension including the leading dot.

Returns true on success, false on error. The file remains open afterwards.

Note: the core Allegro library does not support any image file formats by default. You must use the allegro_image addon, or register your own format handler.
