To build SDL2 library for the PS2, make sure you have the latest PS2Dev status and run:
cmake -S. -Bbuild -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=$PS2DEV/ps2sdk/ps2dev.cmake
cmake --build build
cmake --install build
If you trying to debug a SDL app through ps2client you need to avoid the IOP reset, otherwise you will lose the conection with your computer.
So to avoid the reset of the IOP CPU, you need to call to the macro SDL_PS2_SKIP_IOP_RESET();
.
It could be something similar as:
.....
SDL_PS2_SKIP_IOP_RESET();
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
.....
For a release binary is recommendable to reset the IOP always.
Remember to do a clean compilation everytime you enable or disable the SDL_PS2_SKIP_IOP_RESET
otherwise the change won’t be reflected.

## Notes
If you trying to debug a SDL app through [ps2client](https://github.com/ps2dev/ps2client) you need to avoid the IOP reset, otherwise you will lose the conection with your computer.
So to avoid the reset of the IOP CPU, you need to call to the macro `SDL_PS2_SKIP_IOP_RESET();`.
It could be something similar as:
```c
.....
SDL_PS2_SKIP_IOP_RESET();
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
.....
```
For a release binary is recommendable to reset the IOP always.
Remember to do a clean compilation everytime you enable or disable the `SDL_PS2_SKIP_IOP_RESET` otherwise the change won't be reflected.
