Homebrew Question Every libnx SDL2 homebrew crashes

gbrownie · Feb 28, 2019

Every time I compile and try to run a SDL2 homebrew in libnx it instantly crashes (other libnx examples work fine). I have a known working SDL2 project on Linux and several hello worlds but they all just instantly crash despite compiling without warnings.

I've noticed that the examples usually don't include the linker flags "-lGLESv2 -lEGL -lglapi -ldrm_nouveau". However, none of my SDL2 programs will even compile without it so could there be a problem related to this?

Here's the code from one of the hello worlds (carstene1ns "switch-sdl2-demo")

Code:
