Mix_ExpireChannel

Change the expiration delay for a particular channel.

Syntax

int Mix_ExpireChannel(int channel, int ticks);

Function Parameters

channel the channel to change the expiration time on.
ticks number of milliseconds from now to let channel play before halting, -1 to not halt.

Return Value

Returns the number of channels that changed expirations.

Remarks

The channel will halt after the 'ticks' milliseconds have elapsed, or remove the expiration if 'ticks' is -1.

This overrides the value passed to the fourth parameter of Mix_PlayChannelTimed().

Specifying a channel of -1 will set an expiration for all channels.

Any halted channels will have any currently-registered effects deregistered, and will call any callback specified by Mix_ChannelFinished() once the halt occurs.

Note that this function does not block for the number of ticks requested; it just schedules the chunk to expire and notes the time for the mixer to manage later, and returns immediately.

Version

This function is available since SDL_mixer 2.0.0.
