cocos.audio.pygame.base module

Pygame core routines

Contains the core routines that are used by the rest of the pygame modules. Its routines are merged directly into the pygame namespace. This mainly includes the auto-initialization init and quit routines.

There is a small module named locals that also gets merged into this namespace. This contains all the constants needed by pygame. Object constructors also get placed into this namespace, you can call functions like Rect and Surface to create objects of that type. As a convenience, you can import the members of pygame.locals directly into your module’s namespace with:

from pygame.locals import *

Most of the pygame examples do this if you’d like to take a look.

exception error

Bases: RuntimeError

get_error()

Get current error message.

SDL maintains an internal current error message. This message is usually given to you when an SDL related exception occurs, but sometimes you may want to call this directly yourself.

Return type

str

get_sdl_version()

Get the version of the linked SDL runtime.

Return type

int, int, int

Returns

major, minor, patch

init()

Autoinitialize all imported pygame modules.

Initialize all imported pygame modules. Includes pygame modules that are not part of the base modules (like font and image).

It does not raise exceptions, but instead silently counts which modules have failed to init. The return argument contains a count of the number of modules initialized, and the number of modules that failed to initialize.

You can always initialize the modules you want by hand. The modules that need it have an init and quit routine built in, which you can call directly. They also have a get_init routine which you can use to doublecheck the initialization. Note that the manual init routines will raise an exception on error. Be aware that most platforms require the display module to be initialized before others. This init will handle that for you, but if you initialize by hand, be aware of this constraint.

As with the manual init routines. It is safe to call this init as often as you like.

Return type

int, int

Returns

(count_passed, count_failed)

quit()

Uninitialize all pygame modules.

Uninitialize all pygame modules that have been initialized. Even if you initialized the module by hand, this quit will uninitialize it for you.

All the pygame modules are uninitialized automatically when your program exits, so you will usually not need this routine. If you program plans to keep running after it is done with pygame, then would be a good time to make this call.

register_quit(func)

Routine to call when pygame quits.

The given callback routine will be called when pygame is quitting. Quit callbacks are served on a ‘last in, first out’ basis.
