AIL_file_async_read_callback

The function AIL_file_async_read_callback specifies a user-replaceable callback handler to initiate asynchronous reads from a file.

void * AILCALLBACK AIL_file_async_read_callback(
  UINTa file_handle,
  void *buffer,
  U32 bytes
);

In Parameters

file_handle: specifies the file handle to read from.
bytes: specifies the number of bytes to read.

Out Parameters

buffer: specifies the address to read into.

Returns

This function simply initiates an asynchronous read operation. It should return a structure that can be interpreted by the AIL_file_async_status_callback function to poll for completion and file-access errors. The composition of this structure can be application-specific, since it will not be accessed by Miles. Asynchronous reads are used on Wii, PS2 and Macintosh by default.
