al_ftofix - Man Page
Allegro 5 API
Synopsis
#include <allegro5/allegro.h> al_fixed al_ftofix(double x);
Description
Converts a floating point value to fixed point. Unlike al_itofix(3), this function clamps values which could overflow the type conversion, setting Allegro’s errno to ERANGE in the process if this happens.
Example:
al_fixed number; number = al_itofix(-40000); assert(al_fixfloor(number) == -32768); number = al_itofix(64000); assert(al_fixfloor(number) == 32767); assert(!al_get_errno()); /* This will fail. */
Return Value
Returns the value of the floating point value converted to fixed point clamping overflows (and setting Allegro’s errno).
