NAME

SDL_CDOpen - Opens a CD-ROM drive for access.

SYNOPSIS

#include “SDL.h”

SDL_CD *SDL_CDOpen*(*int drive);

DESCRIPTION

Opens a CD-ROM drive for access. It returns a SDL_CD structure on success, or NULL if the drive was invalid or busy. This newly opened CD-ROM becomes the default CD used when other CD functions are passed a NULL CD-ROM handle.

Drives are numbered starting with 0. Drive 0 is the system default CD-ROM.

EXAMPLES

  SDL_CD *cdrom;
  int cur_track;
  int min, sec, frame;
  SDL_Init(SDL_INIT_CDROM);
  atexit(SDL_Quit);

  /* Check for CD drives */
  if(!SDL_CDNumDrives()){
    /* None found */
    fprintf(stderr, "No CDROM devices available
  ");
    exit(-1);
  }

  /* Open the default drive */
  cdrom=SDL_CDOpen(0);

  /* Did if open? Check if cdrom is NULL */
  if(!cdrom){
    fprintf(stderr, "Couldn't open drive: %s
  ", SDL_GetError());
    exit(-1);
  }

  /* Print Volume info */
  printf("Name: %s
  ", SDL_CDName(0));
  printf("Tracks: %d
  ", cdrom->numtracks);
  for(cur_track=0;cur_track < cdrom->numtracks; cur_track++){
    FRAMES_TO_MSF(cdrom->track[cur_track].length, &min, &sec, &frame);
    printf("	Track %d: Length %d:%d
  ", cur_track, min, sec);
  }

  SDL_CDClose(cdrom);
