override_config_data(3alleg4) Allegro manual override_config_data(3alleg4)

override_config_data - Specifies a block of data containing config overrides. Allegro game programming library.

#include <allegro.h>

void override_config_data(const char *data, int length);

Version of override_config_file() which uses a block of data that has already been read into memory. The length of the block has to be specified in bytes. Example:


/* Force German as system language, Spanish keyboard map. */
const char *override_data = "[system]\n"
"language=DE\n"
"keyboard=ES";
override_config_data(override_data, ustrsize(override_data));

Note that this function and override_config_file() are mutually exclusive, i.e. calling one will cancel the effects of the other.
