SDL_qsort - Sort an array.

Defined in SDL3/SDL_stdinc.h

#include "SDL3/SDL.h"

void SDL_qsort(void *base, size_t nmemb, size_t size, SDL_CompareCallback compare);

For example:

typedef struct {
int key;
const char *string;
} data;

int SDLCALL compare(const void *a, const void *b)
{
const data *A = (const data *)a;
const data *B = (const data *)b;

if (A->n < B->n) {
return -1;
} else if (B->n < A->n) {
return 1;
} else {
return 0;
}
}

data values[] = {
{ 3, "third" }, { 1, "first" }, { 2, "second" }
};

SDL_qsort(values, SDL_arraysize(values), sizeof(values[0]), compare);

	base		a pointer to the start of the array.
	nmemb		the number of elements in the array.
	size		the size of the elements in the array.

compare

a function used to compare elements in the array.

It is safe to call this function from any thread.

This function is available since SDL 3.2.0.
