NAME

7       programming library.

SYNOPSIS

10       #include <allegro.h>

13       int get_color_depth(void);

DESCRIPTION

16       Returns the current pixel format. This can be very useful  to  know  in
17       order  to  write  generic  functions which select a different code path
18       internally depending on the color depth being used.
19
20       Note that the function returns whatever value you may have  set  previ‐
21       ously  with  set_color_depth(), which can be different from the current
22       color depth of the screen global variable. If you really need  to  know
23       the color depth of the screen, use bitmap_color_depth().
