sdlCreateGpuDevice function

Pointer<SdlGpuDevice> sdlCreateGpuDevice(int formatFlags, bool debugMode, String? name)

Creates a GPU context.

\param format_flags a bitflag indicating which shader formats the app is able to provide. \param debug_mode enable debug mode properties and validations. \param name the preferred GPU driver, or NULL to let SDL pick the optimal driver. \returns a GPU context on success or NULL on failure; call SDL_GetError() for more information.

\since This function is available since SDL 3.1.3.
