NAME¶

IMG_Quit - Deinitialize SDL_image.

SYNOPSIS¶

#include "SDL3_image/SDL_image.h"

void IMG_Quit(void);

DESCRIPTION¶

This should be the last function you call in SDL_image, after freeing all other resources. This will unload any shared libraries it is using for various codecs.

After this call, a call to IMG_Init (0) will return 0 (no codecs loaded).

You can safely call IMG_Init () to reload various codec support after this call.

Unlike other SDL satellite libraries, calls to IMG_Init
do not stack; a single call to IMG_Quit () will deinitialize everything and does not have to be paired with a matching IMG_Init
call. For that reason, it's considered best practices to have a single

IMG_Init
and IMG_Quit
call in your program. While this isn't required, be aware of the risks of deviating from that behavior.

AVAILABILITY¶

This function is available since SDL_image 3.0.0.
