(This is the documentation for SDL3, which is the current stable version. SDL2 was the previous version!)
SDL_HINT_QUIT_ON_LAST_WINDOW_CLOSE
A variable that decides whether to send SDL_EVENT_QUIT when closing the last window.
Defined in <SDL3/SDL_hints.h>
Syntax
#define SDL_HINT_QUIT_ON_LAST_WINDOW_CLOSE "SDL_QUIT_ON_LAST_WINDOW_CLOSE"
The variable can be set to the following values:
- "0": SDL will not send an SDL_EVENT_QUIT event when the last window is requesting to close. Note that in this case, there are still other legitimate reasons one might get an SDL_EVENT_QUIT event: choosing "Quit" from the macOS menu bar, sending a SIGINT (ctrl-c) on Unix, etc.
- "1": SDL will send a quit event when the last window is requesting to close. (default)
This hint can be set anytime.
Version
This hint is available since SDL 3.0.0.
