fli_timer(3) Allegro manual fli_timer(3)NAMEfli_timer - Global variable for timing FLI playback. Allegro game pro‐
gramming library.
SYNOPSIS
#include <allegro.h>
extern volatile int fli_timer;
DESCRIPTION
Global variable for timing FLI playback. When you open an FLI file, a
timer interrupt is installed which increments this variable every time
a new frame should be displayed. Calling next_fli_frame() decrements
it, so you can test it and know that it is time to display a new frame
if it is greater than zero. Example:
while (next_fli_frame(0) == FLI_OK) {
/* Do stuff, like play audio stream
or check keys to skip animation. */
/* Rest some time until next frame... */
while (fli_timer <= 0)
rest(0);
}
