Performs `valid` as part of XA music streaming and playback state.
Parameter
Type
Meaning
samples
uint16_t
Value supplied for samples. 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 "native_music_data.hpp"
// Assume these named values have been initialized with valid data:
// uint16_t samples
epok::native_music::View& object = /* obtain a valid instance */;
auto result = object.valid(samples);
Why use it
The method is `const`, so it does not mutate the object through this API surface. 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.
