al_set_physfs_file_interface(3)                al_set_physfs_file_interface(3)

NAME
       al_set_physfs_file_interface - Allegro 5 API

SYNOPSIS

              #include <allegro5/allegro_physfs.h>

              void al_set_physfs_file_interface(void)


DESCRIPTION
       This function sets both the ALLEGRO_FILE_INTERFACE(3) and
       ALLEGRO_FS_INTERFACE(3) for the calling thread.

       Subsequent calls to al_fopen(3) on the calling thread will be handled
       by PHYSFS_open().  Operations on the files returned by al_fopen(3) will
       then be performed through PhysicsFS.  Calls to the Allegro filesystem
       functions, such as al_read_directory(3) or al_create_fs_entry(3), on
       the calling thread will be diverted to PhysicsFS.

       To remember and restore another file I/O backend, you can use
       al_store_state(3)/al_restore_state(3).

              Note: due to an oversight, this function differs from
              al_set_new_file_interface(3) and
              al_set_standard_file_interface(3) which only alter the current
              ALLEGRO_FILE_INTERFACE(3).

              Note: PhysFS does not support the text-mode reading and writing,
              which means that Windows-style newlines will not be preserved.

       al_set_new_file_interface(3).
