NAME¶

MIX_Init - Initialize the SDL_mixer library.

SYNOPSIS¶

#include <SDL3_mixer/SDL_mixer.h>

bool MIX_Init(void);

DESCRIPTION¶

This must be successfully called once before (almost) any other SDL_mixer function can be used.

It is safe to call this multiple times; the library will only initialize once, and won't deinitialize until MIX_Quit() has been called a matching number of times. Extra attempts to init report success.

RETURN VALUE¶

Returns true on success, false on error; call SDL_GetError() for details.

THREAD SAFETY¶

This function is not thread safe.

AVAILABILITY¶

This function is available since SDL_mixer 3.0.0.
