I got this bug in SDL_ttf:
https://bugzilla.libsdl.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4524
Sylvain proposed solution:
SDL_RWseek(RWops, 0, RW_SEEK_SET);

And it works, but i can use it my project, because it written in C# with SDL2-CS wrapper and there not export for macroses:
#define SDL_RWsize(ctx) (ctx)->size(ctx)
#define SDL_RWseek(ctx, offset, whence) (ctx)->seek(ctx, offset, whence)
#define SDL_RWtell(ctx) (ctx)->seek(ctx, 0, RW_SEEK_CUR)
#define SDL_RWread(ctx, ptr, size, n) (ctx)->read(ctx, ptr, size, n)
#define SDL_RWwrite(ctx, ptr, size, n) (ctx)->write(ctx, ptr, size, n)
#define SDL_RWclose(ctx) (ctx)->close(ctx)

Therefore, I suggest replacing this macros with functions so that they can be exported and used in bindings

Seems i'm not able to edit description:

There misprint in description:
"And it works, but i can use it my project, because it written in C# with SDL2-CS wrapper and there"
Must be
"And it works, but i CANNOT use it my project, because it written in C# with SDL2-CS wrapper and there"

This could be added ...
but maybe:

1/ you can report that to one who does the wrapper so that it provides also the macros

2/ There is not SDL_RWseek but maybe it exposes things to call: (ctx)->seek(ctx, offset, whence)

I asked author of the wrapper about this, could you please read his answer here:

Tagging a bunch of bugs with "target-2.0.10" so we have a clear list of things to address before a 2.0.10 release.

Please note that "addressing" one of these bugs might mean deciding to defer on it until after 2.0.10, or resolving it as WONTFIX, etc. This is just here to tell us we should look at it carefully, and soon.

If you have new information or feedback on this issue, this is a good time to add it to the conversation, as we're likely to be paying attention to this specific report in the next few days/weeks.

Thanks!

This makes programs using these calls and built against 2.0.10
not to work with SDL2 <= 2.0.9. (Examples include SDL libsaries.)
Is this really OK?

Fwiw, we did this with all the stdlib functions (SDL_strcmp and such) and no one reported problems.

Did such a thing happen after 2.0.0 release? When?

Whoops, this happened before 2.0.0 shipped, my mistake.

Sam, it's your call. I'm reopening the bug just so we can see it in the TODO list, but if you think it's okay, I'm fine with it just being closed again.

Yes, SDL guarantees that binaries built with an older library will work with newer binaries, but not the reverse. If you build with newer headers you need to ship the newer library.

Even if when using old apis which (silently) changed in new versions?

If you will keep this change, please document it.
