(This function is part of SDL_image, a separate library from SDL.)

IMG_LoadGIFAnimation_RW

Load a GIF animation directly.

Syntax

IMG_Animation * IMG_LoadGIFAnimation_RW(SDL_RWops *src);

Function Parameters

src an SDL_RWops that data will be read from.

Return Value

Returns a new IMG_Animation, or NULL on error.

Remarks

If you know you definitely have a GIF image, you can call this function, which will skip SDL_image's file format detection routines. Generally it's better to use the abstract interfaces; also, there is only an SDL_RWops interface available here.

Version

This function is available since SDL_image 2.6.0.
