GlCompressFileTools() creates a toolkit that can // build Greenleaf compressors and file objects. If your app is only // going to be compressing files, you can use this toolkit to initialize // your ALEntryList, and avoid linking in a bunch of support for // ALMemory objects, decompressors, and so on. // // RETURNS // // A new toolkit. Not a reference or a pointer, so you better use this // as part of an assignment statement, or as an argument to a ctor. // // EXAMPLE // // SEE ALSO // // REVISION HISTORY // // February 14, 1996 2.0A : New Release // AL_LINKAGE ALToolKit AL_FUNCTION GlCompressFileTools( /* Tag public function */ short int compression_level /* = AL_GREENLEAF_LEVEL_2 or 4 */ ) { return ALGlCompressor( compression_level ) + ALCopyCompressor() + ALFile(); } // // NAME // // newALListGlCompressFileTools() // // PLATFORMS/ENVIRONMENTS // // Console Windows PM // C VB Delphi // // SHORT DESCRIPTION // // Create an entry list that uses the Greenleaf and ALFile toolkit. // // C++ SYNOPSIS // // None.

C/VB/Delphi programmers can do the same thing as well, // but it's a little bit harder for them. They have to manually create // a toolkit, get its handle, then pass that handle to the constructor. // After that, they need to destroy the toolkit. // // As a shortcut way to bypass all that work, we provide this function that // creates an ALEntryList with the appropriate toolkit. // // RETURNS // // A handle to the newly created ALEntryList object. // // EXAMPLE // // SEE ALSO // // REVISION HISTORY // // February 14, 1996 2.0A : New Release // #if !defined( AL_NO_C ) extern "C" AL_LINKAGE hALEntryList AL_FUNCTION newALListGlCompressFileTools( hALMonitor monitor, /* Tag public function */ short int compression_level ) { if ( monitor ) AL_ASSERT_OBJECT( monitor, ALMonitor, "newALListGlCompressFileTools" ); if ( compression_level == AL_DEFAULT ) compression_level = AL_GL_DEFAULT_LEVEL; return (hALEntryList) new ALEntryList( (ALMonitor *) monitor, GlCompressFileTools( compression_level ) ); } #endif
