SDL_Quit \- Shut down SDL

.SH "SYNOPSIS"

.PP

\fB#include "SDL\&.h"

.sp

\fBvoid \fBSDL_Quit\fP\fR(\fBvoid\fR);

.SH "DESCRIPTION"

.PP

\fBSDL_Quit\fP shuts down all SDL subsystems and frees the resources allocated to them\&. This should always be called before you exit\&. For the sake of simplicity you can set \fBSDL_Quit\fP as your \fBatexit\fP call, like:

.PP

.nf

\f(CWSDL_Init(SDL_INIT_VIDEO|SDL_INIT_AUDIO);

atexit(SDL_Quit);

\&.

\&.\fR

.fi

.PP

.PP

.RS

\fBNote:

.PP

While using \fBatexit\fP maybe be fine for small programs, more advanced users should shut down SDL in their own cleanup code\&. Plus, using \fBatexit\fP in a library is a sure way to crash dynamically loaded code
