Querying SDL Version
Include File(s): SDL_version.h, SDL_revision.h
Introduction
These functions are used to collect or display information about the version of SDL that is currently being used by the program or that it was compiled against.
- The version consists of three segments (X.Y.Z)
- X = Major Version, which increments with massive changes, additions, and enhancements
- Y = Minor Version, which increments with backwards-compatible changes to the major revision
- Z = Patchlevel, which increments with fixes to the minor revision
Example: The first version of SDL 2 was 2.0.0
- The version may also be reported as a 4-digit numeric value where the thousands place represents the major version, the hundreds place represents the minor version, and the tens and ones places represent the patchlevel (update version).
Example: The first version number of SDL 2 was 2000
SDL_revision.h must be included in your program explicitly if you want to use the SDL_REVISION constant.
