Behaviour of SDL_Init when called more than once?

SDL Development

Hey all,

Is the behaviour of SDL_Init and SDL_InitSubSystem defined when called
multiple times?

Is it reference counted so if called twice, it won’t actually be quit
until the second SDL_Quit(), or does it just abort silently? Or does it
just happen to work now and may explode later?

Thanks–

End of Rant.

Yes, the second call is ignored. SDL_Quit() works normally.

See ya,
