Function:ss2gt
From S2PLOT
ss2gt
Get a pointer to an identified texture.
Prototype
char *ss2gt(unsigned int textureID, int *width, int *height);
Description
Get a pointer to an identified texture. The return value of the function is a (char *), which points to a chunk of memory which is 4 * width * height bytes. A 4-byte segment of this memory contains r, g, b and a (alpha / transparency) values [0,255]. If the texture is not found, NULL is returned.
