SDL_DEFINE_AUDIO_FORMAT(3) SDL3 FUNCTIONS SDL_DEFINE_AUDIO_FORMAT(3)

NAME

SDL_DEFINE_AUDIO_FORMAT - Define an SDL_AudioFormat value.

SYNOPSIS

#include <SDL3/SDL_audio.h>
#define SDL_DEFINE_AUDIO_FORMAT(signed, bigendian, flt, size) \
    (((Uint16)(signed) << 15) | ((Uint16)(bigendian) << 12) | ((Uint16)(flt) << 8) | ((size) & SDL_AUDIO_MASK_BITSIZE))

DESCRIPTION

SDL does not support custom audio formats, so this macro is not of much use externally, but it can be illustrative as to what the various bits of an SDL_AudioFormat mean.

For example, SDL_AUDIO_S32LE looks like this:

SDL_DEFINE_AUDIO_FORMAT(1, 0, 0, 32)
    

MACRO PARAMETERS

1 for signed data, 0 for unsigned data.
1 for bigendian data, 0 for littleendian data.
1 for floating point data, 0 for integer data.
number of bits per sample.

RETURN VALUE

Returns a format value in the style of SDL_AudioFormat.

THREAD SAFETY

It is safe to call this macro from any thread.

AVAILABILITY

This macro is available since SDL 3.2.0.
