audio: Offer a hint for libsamplerate quality/speed tradeoff.
This defaults to the internal SDL resampler, since that's the likely default
without a system-wide install of libsamplerate, but those that need more can
tweak this.

25 * Official documentation for SDL configuration variables
27 * This file contains functions to set and get configuration hints,
28 * as well as listing each of them alphabetically.
30 * The convention for naming hints is SDL_HINT_X, where "SDL_X" is
31 * the environment variable that can be used to override the default.
33 * In general these hints are just that - they may or may not be
34 * supported or applicable on any given platform, but they provide
35 * a way for an application or user to give the library a hint as
36 * to how they would like the library to work.

547 /** \brief Allows back-button-press events on Windows Phone to be marked as handled
549 * Windows Phone devices typically feature a Back button. When pressed,
550 * the OS will emit back-button-press events, which apps are expected to

552 * events as 'Handled', then the OS will invoke its default behavior for
553 * unhandled back-button-press events, which on Windows Phone 8 and 8.1 is to
554 * terminate the app (and attempt to switch to the previous app, or to the
555 * device's home screen).
557 * Setting the SDL_HINT_WINRT_HANDLE_BACK_BUTTON hint to "1" will cause SDL
558 * to mark back-button-press events as Handled, if and when one is sent to
561 * Internally, Windows Phone sends back button events as parameters to

564 * callback functions for such, shortly after being launched (during the
565 * app's initialization phase). After the back button is pressed, the OS
566 * will invoke these callbacks. If the app's callback(s) do not explicitly
567 * mark the event as handled by the time they return, or if the app never
568 * registers one of these callback, the OS will consider the event
569 * un-handled, and it will apply its default back button behavior (terminate
572 * SDL registers its own back-button-press callback with the Windows Phone
573 * OS. This callback will emit a pair of SDL key-press events (SDL_KEYDOWN
574 * and SDL_KEYUP), each with a scancode of SDL_SCANCODE_AC_BACK, after which
575 * it will check the contents of the hint, SDL_HINT_WINRT_HANDLE_BACK_BUTTON.
576 * If the hint's value is set to "1", the back button event's Handled
577 * property will get set to 'true'. If the hint's value is set to something
578 * else, or if it is unset, SDL will leave the event's Handled property
579 * alone. (By default, the OS sets this property to 'false', to note.)
581 * SDL apps can either set SDL_HINT_WINRT_HANDLE_BACK_BUTTON well before a
582 * back button is pressed, or can set it in direct-response to a back button
585 * In order to get notified when a back button is pressed, SDL apps should
586 * register a callback function with SDL_AddEventWatch(), and have it listen
587 * for SDL_KEYDOWN events that have a scancode of SDL_SCANCODE_AC_BACK.

651 * \brief A variable to control whether certain IMEs should handle text editing internally instead of sending SDL_TEXTEDITING events.
653 * The variable can be set to the following values:
654 * "0" - SDL_TEXTEDITING events are sent, and it is the application's
655 * responsibility to render the text from these events and
656 * differentiate it somehow from committed text. (default)
657 * "1" - If supported by the IME then SDL_TEXTEDITING events are not sent,
658 * and text that is being composed will be rendered in its own UI.

663 * \brief A variable to control whether mouse and touch events are to be treated together or separately
665 * The variable can be set to the following values:
666 * "0" - Mouse events will be handled as touch events, and touch will raise fake mouse
667 * events. This is the behaviour of SDL <= 2.0.3. (default)
668 * "1" - Mouse events will be handled separately from pure touch events.

691 * This hint only applies to Unix-like platforms.
693 * The variable can be set to the following values:
694 * "0" - SDL will install a SIGINT and SIGTERM handler, and when it
695 * catches a signal, convert it into an SDL_QUIT event.
696 * "1" - SDL will not install a signal handler at all.

701 * \brief Tell SDL not to generate window-close events for Alt+F4 on Windows.
703 * The variable can be set to the following values:
704 * "0" - SDL will generate a window-close event when it sees Alt+F4.
705 * "1" - SDL will only do normal key handling for Alt+F4.

710 * \brief Prevent SDL from using version 4 of the bitmap header when saving BMPs.
712 * The bitmap header version 4 is required for proper alpha channel support and
713 * SDL will use it when required. Should this not be desired, this hint can
714 * force the use of the 40 byte header version which is supported everywhere.
716 * The variable can be set to the following values:
717 * "0" - Surfaces with a colorkey or an alpha channel are saved to a
718 * 32-bit BMP file with an alpha mask. SDL will use the bitmap
719 * header version 4 and set the alpha mask accordingly.
720 * "1" - Surfaces with a colorkey or an alpha channel are saved to a
721 * 32-bit BMP file without an alpha mask. The alpha channel data
722 * will be in the file, but applications are going to ignore it.
724 * The default value is "0".

729 * \brief Tell SDL not to name threads on Windows.
731 * The variable can be set to the following values:
732 * "0" - SDL will raise the 0x406D1388 Exception to name threads.
733 * This is the default behavior of SDL <= 2.0.4. (default)
734 * "1" - SDL will not raise this exception, and threads will be unnamed.
735 * For .NET languages this is required when running under a debugger.

748 * \brief A variable controlling what driver to use for OpenGL ES contexts.
750 * On some platforms, currently Windows and X11, OpenGL drivers may support
751 * creating contexts with an OpenGL ES profile. By default SDL uses these
752 * profiles, when available, otherwise it attempts to load an OpenGL ES
753 * library, e.g. that provided by the ANGLE project. This variable controls
754 * whether SDL follows this default behaviour or will always load an
757 * Circumstances where this is useful include
758 * - Testing an app with a particular OpenGL ES implementation, e.g ANGLE,
759 * or emulator, e.g. those from ARM, Imagination or Qualcomm.
760 * - Resolving OpenGL ES function addresses at link time by linking with
761 * the OpenGL ES library instead of querying them at run time with
762 * SDL_GL_GetProcAddress().
764 * Caution: for an application to work with the default behaviour across
765 * different OpenGL drivers it must query the OpenGL ES function
766 * addresses at run time using SDL_GL_GetProcAddress().
768 * This variable is ignored on most platforms because OpenGL ES is native
771 * This variable can be set to the following values:
772 * "0" - Use ES profile of OpenGL, if available. (Default when not set.)
773 * "1" - Load OpenGL ES library using the default library names.
776 #define SDL_HINT_OPENGL_ES_DRIVER "SDL_OPENGL_ES_DRIVER"
779 * \brief A variable controlling speed/quality tradeoff of audio resampling.
781 * If available, SDL can use libsamplerate ( http://www.mega-nerd.com/SRC/ )
782 * to handle audio resampling. There are different resampling modes available
783 * that produce different levels of quality, possibly using more CPU.
785 * If this hint isn't specified to a valid setting, or libsamplerate isn't
786 * available, SDL will act as if this hint was set to "fast".
788 * Note that this is currently only applicable to resampling audio that is
789 * being written to a device for playback or audio being read from a device
790 * for capture. SDL_AudioCVT always uses the "fast" resampler (although this
791 * might change for SDL 2.1).
793 * Most things can probably live with the "fast" resampler, but if quality
794 * is important or you can spare some CPU cycles, the other options are
797 * libsamplerate's interpolators, that these hints map to, are explained here:
798 * http://www.mega-nerd.com/SRC/api_misc.html#Converters
800 * This hint is only checked at audio subsystem init time and changes to it
801 * at other times are ignored.
803 * This variable can be set to the following values:
805 * "default" - Use SDL's internal, resampler. (Default when not set. low quality, fast.)
806 * "linear" - Use libsamplerate's Linear interpolator (low quality, fast).
807 * "zero_order_hold" - Use libsamplerate's Zero Order Hold interpolator (low quality, fast).
808 * "sinc_fastest" - Use libsamplerate's fastest (lowest quality) sinc interpolator.
809 * "sinc_medium" - Use libsamplerate's medium quality sinc interpolator.
810 * "sinc_best" - Use libsamplerate's best quality sinc interpolator.
