This is a list of major changes in SDL's version history.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
3.2.0:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

General:
* SDL_GetWindowWMInfo() returns a standard int result code instead of SDL_bool, and takes SDL_SYSWM_CURRENT_VERSION as a new third parameter
Fixed crash if initialization of EGL failed but was tried again later. The internal function SDL_EGL_LoadLibrary() did not delete and remove a mostly uninitialized data structure if loading the library first failed. A later try to use EGL then skipped initialization and assumed it was previously successful because the data structure now already existed. This led to at least one crash in the internal function SDL_EGL_ChooseConfig() because a NULL pointer was dereferenced to make a call to eglBindAPI(). 2015-06-21 09:33:46 -06:00

Re-added the CRC to the joystick guid This is now used as a crc field in the mapping rather than directly in mapping guids, for better mapping compatibility between versions of SDL. Added SDL_GetJoystickGUIDInfo() to get device information encoded in a joystick GUID, so that mapping programs can clear the CRC from the GUID when generating mappings. sort_controllers.py has been updated to extract the CRC from mappings created by older mapping programs and convert it into the new crc field. It will also take the CRC into account when checking for duplicate mappings. Also regenerated the GUIDs for the PS2/PSP/Vita controller mappings, fixing https://github.com/libsdl-org/SDL/issues/6151 2022-08-27 19:55:55 -06:00			`---------------------------------------------------------------------------`
Updated SDL_syswm.h for SDL 3.0 * The header is no longer dependent on SDL build configuration * The structures are versioned separately from the rest of SDL * SDL_GetWindowWMInfo() now returns a standard result code and is passed the version expected by the application * Updated WhatsNew.txt and docs/README-migration.md with the first API changes in SDL 3.0 2022-11-23 14:33:48 -07:00			`3.2.0:`
