SDL_GetClipboardMimeTypes(3)

💖 NAME 💖

SDL_GetClipboardMimeTypes — bestie, this is how you pull up the whole list of mime types chillin' in the clipboard ✨

---

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

#include <SDL3/SDL_clipboard.h>

char ** SDL_GetClipboardMimeTypes(size_t *num_mime_types);

---

🌸 FUNCTION PARAMETERS 🌸

• num_mime_types — a pointer that gets filled with the number of mime types. She's optional, so you can pass NULL if you literally do not care and just want the array 💅

---

✨ RETURN VALUE ✨

It hands you a null-terminated array of strings stuffed with mime types 🫶

But if it fails? You get NULL, and that's your cue to go call SDL_GetError() for the tea on what went wrong 😭

Heads up babes: when you're done with this array, you must free it with SDL_free(). Not freeing it is giving leaked memory, and we do not claim that energy 🙈

---

🧚 THREAD SAFETY 🧚

Main thread only. Like, only only. Do not be out here calling this from a worker thread, that's not the vibe ⚠️

---

🌈 AVAILABILITY 🌈

This one's been serving since SDL 3.2.0 👑
