✨ SDL_GetMemoryFunctions ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the SDL3 FUNCTIONS manual, and today's main character is SDL_GetMemoryFunctions(3) 🫶 she's lowkey the plug for peeking at whichever memory functions SDL is currently using. no cap.

🎀 NAME 🎀

SDL_GetMemoryFunctions — Get the current set of SDL memory functions.

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <SDL3/SDL_stdinc.h>

void SDL_GetMemoryFunctions(SDL_malloc_func *malloc_func,
                            SDL_calloc_func *calloc_func,
                            SDL_realloc_func *realloc_func,
                            SDL_free_func *free_func);

💖 FUNCTION PARAMETERS 💖

  • malloc_func — filled with malloc function.
  • calloc_func — filled with calloc function.
  • realloc_func — filled with realloc function.
  • free_func — filled with free function.

🔥 THREAD SAFETY 🔥

bestie, listen. This does not hold a lock, so do not call this in the unlikely event of a background thread calling SDL_SetMemoryFunctions simultaneously. it's giving race condition energy and we are not doing that today 💀

🌈 AVAILABILITY 🌈

This function is available since SDL 3.2.0. periodt.
