{{{{#!wiki comment
The old wiki says this has only 1 param - ctx - but both the old wiki and header also list the following {{{(ctx)->seek(ctx, 0, RW_SEEK_CUR)}}} which appears to specify 3 params. Does the SDL_RWtell macro call the seek function of the SDL_RWops struct then use the given '''context''' + an '''offset''' of 0 + '''whence''' of RW_SEEK_CUR as the settings to find the current location in the data? I don't know how to properly represent that here. See purple below for my attempt.

DRAFT

SDL_RWtell

Use this function to perform a do-nothing seek to get the current offset in an SDL_RWops data stream.

Syntax

Sint64 SDL_RWtell(struct SDL_RWops* context)

Function Parameters

context

a SDL_RWops data stream object from which to get the current offset

Return Value

*Returns the current offset in the stream.*

Code Examples

*

#include <stdio.h>
#include "SDL_rwops.h"

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
  SDL_RWops *rw=SDL_RWFromFile("test.bin","r");
  if(rw==NULL)
  {
    fprintf(stderr,"Couldn't open test.bin\n");
    return(1);
  }

  SDL_RWseek(rw,0,RW_SEEK_END);
  fprintf(stderr,"Final position in test.bin: %d\n",SDL_RWtell(rw));
  SDL_RWclose(rw);
  return(0);
}

*

Remarks

*
This is not a built-in function. This is a macro that calls whatever seek function that happens to be pointed to in an SDL_RWops structure.
