# IMG_isPCX

Detect PCX image data on a readable/seekable SDL_RWops.

## Header File

Defined in [<SDL_image.h>](https://github.com/libsdl-org/SDL_image/blob/SDL2/include/SDL_image.h)

## Syntax

```c
int IMG_isPCX(SDL_RWops *src);
```

## Function Parameters

|             |         |                                                      |
| ----------- | ------- | ---------------------------------------------------- |
| SDL_RWops * | **src** | a seekable/readable SDL_RWops to provide image data. |

## Return Value

(int) Returns non-zero if this is PCX data, zero otherwise.

## Remarks

This function attempts to determine if a file is a given filetype, reading
the least amount possible from the SDL_RWops (usually a few bytes).

There is no distinction made between "not the filetype in question" and
basic i/o errors.

This function will always attempt to seek the RWops back to where it
started when this function was called, but it will not report any errors in
doing so, but assuming seeking works, this means you can immediately use
this with a different [IMG_isTYPE](IMG_isTYPE) function, or load the image
without further seeking.

You do not need to call this function to load data; SDL_image can work to
determine file type in many cases in its standard load functions.

## Version

This function is available since SDL_image 2.0.0.
