(This is the documentation for SDL3, which is under heavy development and the API is changing! SDL2 is the current stable version!)

SDL_assert_always

An assertion test that always performed.

Header File

Defined in <SDL3/SDL_assert.h>

Syntax

#define SDL_assert_always(condition) SDL_enabled_assert(condition)

Macro Parameters

condition

boolean value to test.

Remarks

This macro is always enabled no matter what SDL_ASSERT_LEVEL is set to. You almost never want to use this, as it could trigger on an end-user's system, crashing your program.

One can set the environment variable "SDL_ASSERT" to one of several strings ("abort", "break", "retry", "ignore", "always_ignore") to force a default behavior, which may be desirable for automation purposes. If your platform requires GUI interfaces to happen on the main thread but you're debugging an assertion in a background thread, it might be desirable to set this to "break" so that your debugger takes control as soon as assert is triggered, instead of risking a bad UI interaction (deadlock, etc) in the application.

Version

This macro is available since SDL 3.0.0.
