Function SDL_GL_LoadLibrary

pub unsafe extern "C" fn SDL_GL_LoadLibrary(path: *const i8) -> bool
Available on crate feature dep_sdl3 only.
Expand description

Dynamically load an OpenGL library.

This should be done after initializing the video driver, but before creating any OpenGL windows. If no OpenGL library is loaded, the default library will be loaded upon creation of the first OpenGL window.

If you do this, you need to retrieve all of the GL functions used in your program from the dynamic library using SDL_GL_GetProcAddress().

§Parameters

  • path: the platform dependent OpenGL library name, or NULL to open the default OpenGL library.

§Return value

Returns true on success or false on failure; call SDL_GetError() for more information.

§Thread safety

This function should only be called on the main thread.

§Availability

This function is available since SDL 3.2.0.
