(This is the legacy documentation for SDL2, the previous stable version; SDL3 is the current stable version.)

SDL_GetErrorMsg

Get the last error message that was set for the current thread.

Header File

Defined in SDL_error.h

Syntax

char * SDL_GetErrorMsg(char *errstr, int maxlen);

Function Parameters

char *	errstr	A buffer to fill with the last error message that was set for the current thread.
int	maxlen	The size of the buffer pointed to by the errstr parameter.

Return Value

(char *) Returns the pointer passed in as the errstr parameter.

Remarks

This allows the caller to copy the error string into a provided buffer, but otherwise operates exactly the same as SDL_GetError().
