NAME

       SDL_CreateRenderer - Create a 2D rendering context for a window.

SYNOPSIS

       #include <SDL3/SDL_render.h>

       SDL_Renderer * SDL_CreateRenderer(SDL_Window *window, const char *name);

DESCRIPTION

       If  you  want  a  specific  renderer, you can specify its name here. A list of available renderers can be
       obtained   by   calling   SDL_GetRenderDriver()   multiple   times,    with    indices    from    0    to
       SDL_GetNumRenderDrivers()-1.  If you don't need a specific renderer, specify NULL and SDL will attempt to
       choose the best option for you, based on what is available on the user's system.

       If name is a comma-separated list, SDL will try each name, in the order listed, until one succeeds or all
       of them fail.

       By   default   the   rendering   size   matches   the   window   size   in   pixels,  but  you  can  call
       SDL_SetRenderLogicalPresentation() to change the content size and scaling options.

FUNCTION PARAMETERS

       window the window where rendering is displayed.

       name   the name of the rendering driver to initialize, or NULL to let SDL choose one.

RETURN VALUE

       Returns a valid rendering  context  or  NULL  if  there  was  an  error;  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.
