Summary: developers should update documentation

Description N. de Jonge 2018-05-01 18:03:44 UTC
The SDL_image documentation hasn't been updated since 2009 (v1.2.8).

This is not a GUI-based end-user product, but a library for developers.

The authors of SDL_image should keep the documentation up-to-date. If an author adds, for example, IMG_SavePNG(), then that author should also document this function. Accepted parameters, expected return values, etc.

In my opinion, this is not something that (other) volunteers should do. If a function is added, removed or modified, then the documentation should be altered to reflect the changes.
