TTF_GetGlyphScript(3)

💖 TTF_GetGlyphScript — NAME 💖

okay so bestie, this is TTF_GetGlyphScript from the SDL_ttf3 functions. It tells you which script a 32-bit codepoint belongs to. that's it, that's the whole job. she's simple, she's iconic. ✨

🎀 HEADER FILE 🎀

she lives in SDL3_ttf/SDL_ttf.h — defined there and everything, no cap.

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

#include "SDL3_ttf/SDL_ttf.h"

Uint32 TTF_GetGlyphScript(Uint32 ch);

🌸 FUNCTION PARAMETERS 🌸

• ch — the character code you wanna check. just hand her the codepoint and she'll go look. 🫶

✨ RETURN VALUE ✨

on success she hands you back an ISO 15924 code — that's the fancy international standard for naming scripts. the full list lives over here: https://unicode.org/iso15924/iso15924-codes.html

on failure you get 0. and like, zero is also a valid-looking number so don't be fooled — if you get a 0, go call SDL_GetError() for the tea on what actually went wrong. 💅

fr fr, always check the error. the function will not text you back, but SDL_GetError() will.

🔥 THREAD SAFETY 🔥

this function is thread-safe. call her from anywhere, from any thread, she does not care, she is unbothered. main character energy only. 👑

🌈 AVAILABILITY 🌈

available since SDL_ttf 3.0.0. if you're on something older, sorry babe, she doesn't exist yet. 😭
