NAME

SYNOPSIS

9              #include <allegro5/allegro.h>
10
11              ALLEGRO_CONFIG *al_get_system_config(void)

DESCRIPTION

14       Returns the system configuration structure.  The returned configuration
15       should not be destroyed with al_destroy_config(3).  This is mainly used
16       for configuring Allegro and its addons.  You may populate this configu‐
17       ration before Allegro is installed to control things like  the  logging
18       levels and other features.
19
20       Allegro will try to populate this configuration by loading a configura‐
21       tion file from a few different locations, in this order:
22
23       • Unix only: /etc/allegro5rc
24
25       • Unix only: $HOME/allegro5rc
26
27       • Unix only: $HOME/.allegro5rc
28
29       • allegro5.cfg next to the executable
30
31       If multiple copies are found, then they are merged using  al_merge_con‐
32       fig_into(3).
33
34       The  contents  of  this file are documented inside a prototypical alle‐
35       gro5.cfg that you can find in the root directory of the source  distri‐
36       butions of Allegro.  They are also reproduced below.
37
38       Note  that  Allegro will not look into that file unless you make a copy
39       of it and place it next to your executable!
