💖 SDL_AppQuit_func 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the SDL3 DATATYPES corner of the manual, where we're talking about SDL_AppQuit_func — yes it's a mouthful, yes it's iconic, and yes you're gonna understand it in like thirty seconds. 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

SDL_AppQuit_func — the function pointer typedef for SDL_AppQuit. literally what it says on the tin, no notes. 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <SDL3/SDL_init.h>

typedef void (SDLCALL *SDL_AppQuit_func)(void *appstate, SDL_AppResult result);

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So here's the tea, bestie: these are used by SDL_EnterAppMainCallbacks. ☕

This whole mechanism operates behind the scenes for apps that are using the optional main callbacks. So it's giving backstage-pass energy — you don't have to touch it directly. Apps that actually wanna use this should just implement SDL_AppEvent directly. that's it, that's the move. ✨

🎀 FUNCTION PARAMETERS 🎀

  • appstate — an optional pointer, and it's provided by the app over in SDL_AppInit. your little backpack of state, if you want one. 🎒
  • result — the result code that terminated the app (success or failure). so basically the receipts of how it all ended. 👑

⭐ AVAILABILITY ⭐

This datatype is available since SDL 3.2.0. so if you're on anything older, it's not you, it's the version. 😭

ngl this one is short and sweet — a typedef, two params, and a whole lot of behind-the-scenes magic. periodt. 💜

and that's the whole page, bestie!! brought to you by Simple Directmedia Layer, version SDL 3.4.18 — mwah, go slay your app's quit handling, iykyk 🧚💖🌈
