Bug 2547

Summary: SDL could read default hints from config file.
Product: SDL Reporter: Tiago O. <toacn-foss>
Component: *don't know*Assignee: Ryan C. Gordon <icculus>
Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX QA Contact: Sam Lantinga <slouken>
Severity: enhancement    
Priority: P2    
Version: HG 2.1   
Hardware: All   
OS: All   

Description Tiago O. 2014-05-16 00:54:08 UTC
The file could be either system wide or user specific. Of course, a program could override those settings by calling SDL_SetHint or SDL_SetHintWithPriority.
Comment 1 Sam Lantinga 2014-06-25 09:04:40 UTC
Most of the hints are application specific and often none are needed. It's easy for an application to implement this functionality if they want, so I'd leave this out of the API.
