(This is the documentation for SDL3, which is the current stable version. SDL2 was the previous version!)

SDL_OpenStorage

Opens up a container using a client-provided storage interface.

Header File

Syntax

SDL_Storage * SDL_OpenStorage(const SDL_StorageInterface *iface, void *userdata);

Function Parameters

const SDL_StorageInterface *	iface	the interface that implements this storage, initialized using SDL_INIT_INTERFACE().
void *	userdata	the pointer that will be passed to the interface functions.

Return Value

(SDL_Storage *) Returns a storage container on success or NULL on failure; call SDL_GetError() for more information.

Remarks

Applications do not need to use this function unless they are providing their own SDL_Storage implementation. If you just need an SDL_Storage, you should use the built-in implementations in SDL, like SDL_OpenTitleStorage() or SDL_OpenUserStorage().

This function makes a copy of iface and the caller does not need to keep it around after this call.

Version

This function is available since SDL 3.1.3.
