pub unsafe extern "C" fn SDL_GetWindowBordersSize(
    window: *mut SDL_Window,

Available on crate feature dep_sdl3 only.
Expand description

Get the size of a window’s borders (decorations) around the client area.

Note: If this function fails (returns false), the size values will be initialized to 0, 0, 0, 0 (if a non-NULL pointer is provided), as if the window in question was borderless.

Note: This function may fail on systems where the window has not yet been decorated by the display server (for example, immediately after calling SDL_CreateWindow). It is recommended that you wait at least until the window has been presented and composited, so that the window system has a chance to decorate the window and provide the border dimensions to SDL.

This function also returns false if getting the information is not supported.

§Parameters

  • window: the window to query the size values of the border (decorations) from.
  • top: pointer to variable for storing the size of the top border; NULL is permitted.
  • left: pointer to variable for storing the size of the left border; NULL is permitted.
  • bottom: pointer to variable for storing the size of the bottom border; NULL is permitted.
  • right: pointer to variable for storing the size of the right border; NULL is permitted.

§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.
