Declaration

static bool read(uint32_t slot,uint32_t port)

Reads read as part of the gameplay api module.

Parameter	Type	Meaning
`slot`	`uint32_t`	Value supplied for slot. Keep referenced or pointed-to data valid for the complete call.
`port`	`uint32_t`	Value supplied for port. Keep referenced or pointed-to data valid for the complete call.

Returns: bool. Check the value before continuing when it represents success, availability or a resource handle.

Example

C++ example

#include "gameplay_api.hpp"

// Assume these named values have been initialized with valid data:
// uint32_t slot
// uint32_t port

auto result = epok::MemoryCardLibrary::read(slot, port);

Why use it

The boolean result makes success, availability or state explicit without exceptions. The API exposes the hardware service without hiding latency or bounded memory.

Trade-offs and warnings

Check the return value; `false` is part of normal control flow for many PSX resource operations. Treat device absence, busy state and I/O failure as expected outcomes; do not block the frame loop waiting for hardware.
