PACKFILE(3alleg4)						  Allegro manual						 PACKFILE(3alleg4)

NAME

       PACKFILE - Packfile structure, similar to the libc FILE structure. Allegro game programming library.

SYNOPSIS

       #include <allegro.h>

       typedef struct PACKFILE

DESCRIPTION

       A  packfile  structure,	similar  to  the  libc	FILE  structure.  Read chapter "File and compression routines" for a description on how to
       obtain/use this structure. Note that prior to version 4.1.18, some internal fields were accidentally documented - but  PACKFILE	should	be
       treated as an opaque structure, just like the libc FILE type.

pack_fopen_vtable(3alleg4)					  Allegro manual					pack_fopen_vtable(3alleg4)

NAME

       pack_fopen_vtable - Allegro game programming library.

SYNOPSIS

       #include <allegro.h>

       PACKFILE *pack_fopen_vtable(const PACKFILE_VTABLE *vtable, void *userdata);

DESCRIPTION

       Creates	a  new	packfile  structure that uses the functions specified in the vtable instead of the standard functions. The data pointer by
       `vtable' and `userdata' must remain available for the lifetime of the created packfile.

       While the created packfile structure can be used with other Allegro functions, there are  two  limitations.  First,  opening  chunks  using
       pack_fopen_chunk()  on top of the returned packfile is not possible at this time. And packfile_password() does not have any effect on pack-
       files opened with pack_fopen_vtable().

RETURN VALUE

       On success, it returns a pointer to a PACKFILE structure, and on error it returns NULL and stores an error code in `errno'.
