#include "SDL/SDL.h" Vs. #include "SDL.h&quot

SDL Development

I solved this problem two ways in my days of Mac OS X developing before
Apple stabbed the FOSS community in the back :frowning:

when and how did this happen?

Solution A) Create your own sdl-config. It’s really simple.

Solution B) Write a little more code to include the necessary headers.
Here’s how I accomplished that:

#ifdef APPLE

include <SDL/SDL.h>

include <OpenGL/GL.h>

#else

include <SDL.h>

include <GL/gl.h>

#endif

Of course that solution is just from memory of many years ago, so it has a
few rough edges. When you or someone else tries to build your package on
another system, it quickly becomes apparent what the problem is and a fix is
usually easy to implement, so the absence of a real standard portable
one-liner isn’t that critical :slight_smile:

as mentioned by others, #include “SDL.h” will work for most cases on most
platforms.
