NAME

Alien::SDL3 - Build and Install SDL3 and Satellite Libraries

SYNOPSIS

use Alien::SDL3; # Don't.

DESCRIPTION

Alien::SDL3 locates or builds:

  • SDL3: Cross-platform development library designed to provide low level access to audio, keyboard, mouse, joystick, and graphics hardware via OpenGL/Direct3D/Metal/Vulkan.

  • SDL_image: Load image files (bmp, gif, jpg, many others) into an SDL_Surface or SDL_Texture.

  • SDL_mixer: Load audio files (wav, mp3, ogg, many others), mix multiple sounds, apply effects to them.

  • SDL_ttf: Load font files (ttf, etc) and render text with them.

It is not meant for direct use but nothing is stopping you from using it. Whip up something cool, I guess. If you're not sure, just ignore it for now.

METHODS

dynamic_libs( )

my @libs = Alien::SDL3->dynamic_libs;

Returns a list of the dynamic library or shared object files.

Prerequisites

Alien::SDL3 will attempt to locate your system install of SDL3 but will build it from source if not found.

The build system will try to get the system in a state where everything compiles (grabs cmake, etc. automatically).

Depending on your platform, certain development dependencies must be present. The X11 or Wayland development libraries are required on Linux, *BSD, etc.
