SYNOPSIS¶

#include "SDL3/SDL.h"

#define SDL_HINT_QUIT_ON_LAST_WINDOW_CLOSE SDL_QUIT_ON_LAST_WINDOW_CLOSE"

DESCRIPTION¶

The variable can be set to the following values:

• "0": SDL will not send an SDL_EVENT_QUIT
event when the
last window is requesting to close. Note that in this case, there are
still other legitimate reasons one might get an

SDL_EVENT_QUIT
event: choosing "Quit" from the macOS
menu bar, sending a SIGINT (ctrl-c) on Unix, etc.

• "1": SDL will send a quit event when the last window is requesting to
close. (default)

This hint can be set anytime.

AVAILABILITY¶

This hint is available since SDL 3.1.3.
