πŸ’– SDL_ALTIVEC_INTRINSICS πŸ’–

okay bestie, so this is the SDL_ALTIVEC_INTRINSICS page from the SDL3 functions manual (yes, the SDL3 FUNCTIONS girlies, we're in the big leagues) and it's a short one but she's IMPORTANT, so let's go 🫢


✨ NAME ✨

SDL_ALTIVEC_INTRINSICS β€” this macro is defined if (and only if) your compiler supports PowerPC Altivec intrinsics. no cap. that's the whole vibe. πŸ’…

#define SDL_ALTIVEC_INTRINSICS 1

look at her. tiny. iconic. πŸŽ€


πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

so here's the tea β˜• β€” if this macro is defined, then SDL will have already included <altivec.h> for you. like, she did the homework already, you don't gotta do it. main character energy fr fr πŸ’œ


πŸ‘‘ AVAILABILITY πŸ‘‘
