SYNOPSIS

9              #include <allegro5/allegro.h>
10
11              al_fixed al_itofix(int x);
12

DESCRIPTION

14       Converts  an  integer to fixed point.  This is the same thing as x<<16.
15       Remember that overflows (trying to  convert  an  integer  greater  than
16       32767) and underflows (trying to convert an integer lesser than –32768)
17       are not detected even in debug builds! The values simply “wrap around”.
18
19       Example:
20
21                  al_fixed number;
22
23                  /* This conversion is OK. */
24                  number = al_itofix(100);
25                  assert(al_fixtoi(number) == 100);
26
27                  number = al_itofix(64000);
28
29                  /* This check will fail in debug builds. */
30                  assert(al_fixtoi(number) == 64000);
31

RETURN VALUE

33       Returns the value of the integer  converted  to  fixed  point  ignoring
34       overflows.
