Code Examples
Include: Nothing found for "## End 1"!
SDL_version compiled;
SDL_version linked;
SDL_VERSION(&compiled);
SDL_GetVersion(&linked);
printf("We compiled against SDL version %d.%d.%d ...\n",
compiled.major, compiled.minor, compiled.patch);
printf("But we are linking against SDL version %d.%d.%d.\n",
linked.major, linked.minor, linked.patch);
Remarks
If you are linking to SDL dynamically, then it is possible that the current version will be different than the version you compiled against. This function returns the current version, while SDL_VERSION() is a macro that tells you what version you compiled with.
This function may be called safely at any time, even before SDL_Init().

Remarks
Represents the library's version as three levels:
- major revision (increments with massive changes, additions, and enhancements)
- minor revision (increments with backwards-compatible changes to the major revision), and
- patchlevel (increments with fixes to the minor revision)
The macro SDL_VERSION can be used to populate this structure with information.

SDL_VERSIONNUM
This macro turns the version numbers into a numeric value:
(1,2,3) -> (1203)
SDL_VERSIONNUM(X, Y, Z)
((X)*1000 + (Y)*100 + (Z))
- This assumes that there will never be more than 100 patchlevels.
SDL_COMPILEDVERSION
This is the version number macro for the current SDL version.
SDL_COMPILEDVERSION \
SDL_VERSIONNUM(SDL_MAJOR_VERSION, SDL_MINOR_VERSION, SDL_PATCHLEVEL)
SDL_VERSION_ATLEAST
This macro will evaluate to true if compiled with SDL at least X.Y.Z.
SDL_VERSION_ATLEAST(X, Y, Z) \
(SDL_COMPILEDVERSION >= SDL_VERSIONNUM(X, Y, Z))
