pub unsafe extern "C" fn SDL_CreateSoftwareRenderer(
    surface: *mut SDL_Surface
) -> *mut SDL_Renderer
Expand description

Create a 2D software rendering context for a surface.

Two other API which can be used to create SDL_Renderer: SDL_CreateRenderer() and SDL_CreateWindowAndRenderer(). These can also create a software renderer, but they are intended to be used with an SDL_Window as the final destination and not an SDL_Surface.

\param surface the SDL_Surface structure representing the surface where rendering is done \returns a valid rendering context or NULL if there was an error; call SDL_GetError() for more information.

\since This function is available since SDL 2.0.0.
