NAME

       SDL_hid_init - Initialize the HIDAPI library.

HEADER FILE

       Defined in SDL3/SDL_hidapi.h

SYNOPSIS

       #include "SDL3/SDL.h"

       int SDL_hid_init(void);

DESCRIPTION

       This  function initializes the HIDAPI library. Calling it is not strictly necessary, as it will be called
       automatically by

       SDL_hid_enumerate () and any of the

       SDL_hid_open_ *() functions if it is needed. This function should be called at the beginning of execution
       however, if there is a chance of HIDAPI handles being opened by different threads simultaneously.

       Each call to this function should have a matching call to

       SDL_hid_exit ()

RETURN VALUE

       Returns 0 on success or a negative error code on failure; call

       SDL_GetError () for more information.

AVAILABILITY

       This function is available since SDL 3.2.0.
