(This is the documentation for SDL3, which is under heavy development and the API is changing! SDL2 is the current stable version!)

Function Parameters

file	the path to read all available data from
datasize	if not NULL, will store the number of bytes read

Return Value

Remarks

The data is allocated with a zero byte at the end (null terminated) for convenience. This extra byte is not included in the value reported via datasize.

The data should be freed with SDL_free().
