💖 SDL_PLATFORM_NETBSD(3) 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to the SDL_PLATFORM_NETBSD page — yes it's a whole manpage for one lil macro, and honestly? iconic. it lives in section 3 of the SDL3 functions manual, so jot that down. 📝

✨ NAME ✨

SDL_PLATFORM_NETBSD — a preprocessor macro that is only defined if you're compiling for NetBSD. that's it. that's the whole job. no cap. 💅

like, she's not here to do anything, she's here to exist when the vibe is right (aka when the target is NetBSD) and to be completely absent otherwise. main character energy, zero lines of code. 👑

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <SDL3/SDL_platform_defines.h>

#define SDL_PLATFORM_NETBSD 1

so you pull in SDL_platform_defines.h and if NetBSD is the vibe, the macro is defined and it's set to 1. if you're on literally any other platform, she just… isn't there. 🦋

heads up bestie: this is a compile-time thing, not a runtime check. if you're writing #ifdef SDL_PLATFORM_NETBSD, that's the move. don't go if (SDL_PLATFORM_NETBSD) and then act surprised — the preprocessor ate that already. 🙈

✨ AVAILABILITY ✨

this macro is available since SDL 3.2.0. so if you're on anything older than that, it's giving "who?" 😭

that's genuinely the whole page, and she ate. every option (there is one macro, and she's perfect), every detail, untouched — facts stay facts, only the vibe got a glow-up. 🌸

signing off with the receipts: this one's from the Simple Directmedia Layer crew, SDL 3.4.18 era, filed under SDL_PLATFORM_NETBSD(3). go compile something cute for NetBSD, bestie. 🫶🎀🌈
