Why use it
The boolean result makes success, availability or state explicit without exceptions.

Declaration
Declaration
bool play_clip(uint32_t clip,bool looping)Starts clip as part of the object model module.
| Parameter | Type | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
clip | uint32_t | Value supplied for clip. Keep referenced or pointed-to data valid for the complete call. |
looping | bool | Value supplied for looping. 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 "object_model.hpp"
// Assume these named values have been initialized with valid data:
// uint32_t clip
// bool looping
epok::Mesh3DComponent& object = /* obtain a valid instance */;
auto result = object.play_clip(clip, looping);Trade-offs and warnings
Check the return value; `false` is part of normal control flow for many PSX resource operations.
