This is meant to offer a simplified API for people that are either migrating directly from SDL2 with minimal effort or just want to make noise without any of the fancy new API features. Users of this API can just deal with a single SDL_AudioStream as their only object/handle into the audio subsystem. They are still allowed to open multiple devices (or open the same device multiple times), but cannot change stream bindings on logical devices opened through this function. Destroying the single audio stream will also close the logical device behind the scenes. |

Simple DirectMedia Layer
Simple DirectMedia Layer is a cross-platform development library designed to provide low level access to audio, keyboard, mouse, joystick, and graphics hardware via OpenGL and Direct3D. It is used by video playback software, emulators, and popular games including Valve's award winning catalog and many Humble Bundle games.
SDL officially supports Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, and Android. Support for other platforms may be found in the source code.
SDL is written in C, works natively with C++, and there are bindings available for several other languages, including C# and Python.
This library is distributed under the zlib license, which can be found in the file "LICENSE.txt".
The best way to learn how to use SDL is to check out the header files in the "include" subdirectory and the programs in the "test" subdirectory. The header files and test programs are well commented and always up to date.
