NAME

       al_upload_and_play_haptic_effect - Allegro 5 API

SYNOPSIS

              #include <allegro5/allegro.h>

              bool al_upload_and_play_haptic_effect(ALLEGRO_HAPTIC *hap,
                 ALLEGRO_HAPTIC_EFFECT *effect, ALLEGRO_HAPTIC_EFFECT_ID *id, int loop)

DESCRIPTION

       Uploads  the haptic effect to the device and starts playback immediately.  Returns true if
       the upload and playback were successful, false if either failed.

       In case false is returned,  the  haptic  effect  will  be  automatically  released  as  if
       al_release_haptic_effect(3alleg5)  had  been  called, so there is no need to call it again
       manually  in  this  case.   However,  if  true  is  returned,  it  is  necessary  to  call
       al_release_haptic_effect(3alleg5)  when  the  effect  isn’t needed anymore, to prevent the
       amount of available effects on the haptic devicefrom running out.

SINCE

       5.1.8

              [Unstable API]: Perhaps could be simplified due to  limited  support  for  all  the
              exposed features across all of the platforms.  Awaiting feedback from users.
