SDL_GetHint - Man Page

Defined in SDL3/SDL_hints.h

#include "SDL3/SDL.h"

const char* SDL_GetHint(const char *name);

name

the hint to query.

Returns the string value of a hint or NULL if the hint isn't set.

It is safe to call this function from any thread, however the return value only remains valid until the hint is changed; if another thread might do so, the app should supply locks and/or make a copy of the string. Note that using a hint callback instead is always thread-safe, as SDL holds a lock on the thread subsystem during the callback.

This function is available since SDL 3.2.0.
