Synopsis
#include"SDL3/SDL.h"constchar*SDL_GetHint(constchar*name);
Thread Safety
It is safe to call this function from any thread, however the return value only remains valid until the
hint is changed; if another thread might do so, the app should supply locks and/or make a copy of the
string. Note that using a hint callback instead is always thread-safe, as SDL holds a lock on the thread
subsystem during the callback.
