Update Information:

General:  * New version numbering scheme, similar to GLib and Flatpak.   * An
even number in the minor version (second component) indicates a production-ready
stable release such as 2.24.0, which would have been 2.0.24 under the old
system.     * The patchlevel (micro version, third component) indicates a
bugfix-only update: for example, 2.24.1 would be a bugfix-only release to fix
bugs in 2.24.0, without adding new features.   * An odd number in the minor
version indicates a prerelease such as 2.23.0. Stable distributions should not
use these prereleases.     * The patchlevel indicates successive prereleases,
for example 2.23.1 and 2.23.2 would be prereleases during development of the SDL
2.24.0 stable release. * Added SDL_GetPointDisplayIndex() and
SDL_GetRectDisplayIndex() to get the display associated with a point and
rectangle in screen space * Added SDL_bsearch(), SDL_crc16(), and
SDL_utf8strnlen() to the stdlib routines * Added SDL_CPUPauseInstruction() as a
macro in SDL_atomic.h * Added SDL_size_mul_overflow() and

to reset SDL���s internal keyboard state, generating key up events for all
currently pressed keys * Added the hint SDL_HINT_MOUSE_RELATIVE_WARP_MOTION to
control whether mouse warping generates motion events in relative mode. This
hint defaults off. * Added the hint SDL_HINT_TRACKPAD_IS_TOUCH_ONLY to control

treated as mouse input. * The hint SDL_HINT_JOYSTICK_HIDAPI_JOY_CONS now
defaults on * Added support for mini-gamepad mode for Nintendo Joy-Con
controllers using the HIDAPI driver * Added the hint
SDL_HINT_JOYSTICK_HIDAPI_COMBINE_JOY_CONS to control whether Joy-Con controllers

This hint defaults on. * The hint SDL_HINT_JOYSTICK_HIDAPI_SWITCH_HOME_LED can
be set to a floating point value to set the brightness of the Home LED on
Nintendo Switch controllers * Added the hint
SDL_HINT_JOYSTICK_HIDAPI_JOYCON_HOME_LED to set the Home LED brightness for the
Nintendo Joy-Con controllers. By default the Home LED is not modified. * Added

player LED should be lit on the Nintendo Joy-Con controllers * Added support for
Nintendo Online classic controllers using the HIDAPI driver * Added the hint
SDL_HINT_JOYSTICK_HIDAPI_NINTENDO_CLASSIC to control whether the HIDAPI driver
for Nintendo Online classic controllers should be used * Added support for the

* SDL_JoystickPathForIndex()   * SDL_JoystickPath()   *
SDL_GameControllerPathForIndex()   * SDL_GameControllerPath() * Added
SDL_GameControllerGetFirmwareVersion() and SDL_JoystickGetFirmwareVersion(),
currently implemented for DualSense��� Wireless Controllers using HIDAPI * Added

SDL_GUIDToString() and SDL_GUIDFromString() to convert between SDL GUID and
string * Added SDL_HasLSX() and SDL_HasLASX() to detect LoongArch SIMD support *

the name and format of the default audio device, currently implemented for
PipeWire, PulseAudio, WASAPI, and DirectSound * Added HIDAPI driver for the

rumble * Added support for opening audio devices with 3 or 5 channels (2.1,
4.1). All channel counts from Mono to 7.1 are now supported. * Rewrote audio
