# SDL_HINT_OPENVR_LIBRARY Mechanism to specify openvr_api library location ## Header File Defined in [<SDL3/SDL_hints.h>](https://github.com/libsdl-org/SDL/blob/main/include/SDL3/SDL_hints.h) ## Syntax ```c #define SDL_HINT_OPENVR_LIBRARY "SDL_OPENVR_LIBRARY" ``` ## Remarks By default, when using the OpenVR driver, it will search for the API library in the current folder. But, if you wish to use a system API you can specify that by using this hint. This should be the full or relative path to a .dll on Windows or .so on Linux. ## Version This hint is available since SDL 3.2.0. ---- [CategoryAPI](CategoryAPI), [CategoryAPIMacro](CategoryAPIMacro), [CategoryHints](CategoryHints)
