SDL_qsort - Man Page

Defined in SDL3/SDL_stdinc.h

#include "SDL3/SDL.h"

void SDL_qsort(void *base, size_t nmemb, size_t size, SDL_CompareCallback compare);

For example:

typedef struct {
    int key;
    const char *string;
} data;

int SDLCALL compare(const void *a, const void *b)
{
    const data *A = (const data *)a;
    const data *B = (const data *)b;

    if (A->n < B->n) {
        return -1;
    } else if (B->n < A->n) {
        return 1;
    } else {
        return 0;
    }
}

data values[] = {
    { 3, "third" }, { 1, "first" }, { 2, "second" }
};

SDL_qsort(values, SDL_arraysize(values), sizeof(values[0]), compare);

base

a pointer to the start of the array.

nmemb

the number of elements in the array.

size

the size of the elements in the array.

compare

a function used to compare elements in the array.

It is safe to call this function from any thread.

This function is available since SDL 3.2.0.
