SDL_GUID - An SDL_GUID
Contents
Availability
This struct is available since SDL 3.2.0.
Simple Directmedia Layer SDL 3.2.10 SDL_GUID(3type)
Description
If the device is detached and then re-attached to a different port, or if the base system is rebooted,
the device should still report the same GUID.
GUIDs are as precise as possible but are not guaranteed to distinguish physically distinct but equivalent
devices. For example, two game controllers from the same vendor with the same product ID and revision may
have the same GUID.
GUIDs may be platform-dependent (i.e., the same device may report different GUIDs on different operating
systems).
