NAME

6       al_run_main - Allegro 5 API
7

SYNOPSIS

9              #include <allegro5/allegro.h>
10
11              int al_run_main(int argc, char **argv, int (*user_main)(int, char **))
12

DESCRIPTION

14       This function is useful in cases where you don't have a main() function
15       but want to run Allegro (mostly useful in a  wrapper  library).   Under
16       Windows and Linux this is no problem because you simply can call al_in‐
17       stall_system(3).  But some other system (like OSX) don't allow  calling
18       al_install_system(3) in the main thread.  al_run_main will know what to
19       do in that case.
20
21       The passed argc and argv will simply be passed on to user_main and  the
22       return value of user_main will be returned.
