al_ftofix(3)							  al_ftofix(3)

NAME
       al_ftofix - Allegro 5 API

SYNOPSIS
	      #include <allegro5/allegro.h>

	      al_fixed al_ftofix(double x);

DESCRIPTION
       Converts	 a  floating point value to fixed point.  Unlike al_itofix(3),
       this function clamps values which could overflow the  type  conversion,
       setting Allegro's errno to ERANGE in the process if this happens.

       Example:

		  al_fixed number;

		  number = al_itofix(-40000);
		  assert(al_fixfloor(number) == -32768);

		  number = al_itofix(64000);
		  assert(al_fixfloor(number) == 32767);
		  assert(!al_get_errno()); /* This will fail. */

RETURN VALUE
       Returns	the value of the floating point value converted to fixed point
       clamping overflows (and setting Allegro's errno).
