SDL-2.0: where is SDL_FULLSCREEN?

greno · April 27, 2012, 5:06pm

Did a hg clone of SDL and tried building some previous projects:

getting SDL_FULLSCREEN undeclared.

So ran the following and do not see where SDL_FULLSCREEN is defined.

$ find SDL* -name “*.h” -exec grep -Hn “SDL_FULLSCREEN” {} ;
$ # no results

Did this change in 2.0?

It sure did. The video system is very different. Take a look at:

http://wiki.libsdl.org/moin.cgi/SDL_SetWindowFullscreen

Also, see the old SDL_compat.c file that was remove from mercurial
several months ago, it helped me transition:
