SDL_GetStringProperty(3)

SDL_GetStringProperty3

Get a string property from a group of properties.

Usage

#include "SDL3/SDL.h"

const char * SDL_GetStringProperty(SDL_PropertiesID props, const char *name, const char *default_value);

Header file

Defined in SDL3/SDL_properties.h

Function parameters

props

the properties to query.

name

the name of the property to query.

default_value

the default value of the property.

Return value

Returns the value of the property, or default_value if it is not set or not a string property.

Thread safety

It is safe to call this function from any thread, although the data returned is not protected and could potentially be freed if you call

SDL_SetStringProperty () or

SDL_ClearProperty () on these properties from another thread. If you need to avoid this, use

SDL_LockProperties () and

SDL_UnlockProperties ().
