SDL_ReadIO - Man Page
Read from a data source.
Synopsis
#include <SDL3/SDL_iostream.h> size_t SDL_ReadIO(SDL_IOStream *context, void *ptr, size_t size);
Description
This function reads up size bytes from the data source to the area pointed at by ptr. This function may read less bytes than requested.
This function will return zero when the data stream is completely read, and SDL_GetIOStatus() will return SDL_IO_STATUS_EOF. If zero is returned and the stream is not at EOF, SDL_GetIOStatus() will return a different error value and SDL_GetError() will offer a human-readable message.
Function Parameters
- context
a pointer to an SDL_IOStream structure.
- ptr
a pointer to a buffer to read data into.
- size
the number of bytes to read from the data source.
Return Value
for more information.
Thread Safety
This function is not thread safe.
Availability
This function is available since SDL 3.2.0.
