DRAFT

SDL_SetAssertionHandler

Use this function to set an application-defined assertion handler.

Syntax

void SDL_SetAssertionHandler(SDL_AssertionHandler handler,
                             void*                userdata)

Function Parameters

handler

the callback function called when an assertion fails; see Remarks for details

userdata

a pointer passed to the callback as-is

Code Examples

You can add your code example here

Remarks

This function allows an app to show its own assertion UI and/or force the response to an assertion failure. If the app doesn't provide this, SDL will try to do the right thing, popping up a system-specific GUI dialog, and probably minimizing any fullscreen windows.

handler is a callback function of the following form:

  • SDL_assert_state YourAssertionHandler(const SDL_assert_data* data,
                                          void*                  userdata)
  • where YourAssertionHandler is the name of your function, data is a pointer to the SDL_assert_data struct corresponding to the current assertion, and userdata is what was passed as userdata to SDL_SetAssertionHandler().

  • This callback should return an SDL_assert_state value of how to handle the assertion failure.

This callback may fire from any thread, but it runs wrapped in a mutex, so it will only fire from one thread at a time.

Setting the callback to NULL restores SDL's original internal handler.

This callback is NOT reset to SDL's internal handler upon SDL_Quit()!
