annotate docs/man3/SDL_PumpEvents.3 @ 1200:8f418dce02b2

Date: Sun, 11 Dec 2005 20:37:04 +0100 From: Olivier Boudeville <olivier.boudeville@online.fr> To: "A list for developers using the SDL library. \(includes SDL-announce\)" <sdl@libsdl.org> Subject: [SDL] NetBSD build patch Hi everybody, apparently the SDL-1.2.9 source archive could not compile "as is" on NetBSD 2.0_STABLE due to a pthread detection issue in the configure script. I attached a small patch that can be applied to configure.in so that SDL can be directly (i.e. without the NetBSD package manager) configured and built successfully on NetBSD (at least on the one I tried !). Hope this helps, Olivier.

13 \fBSDL_PumpEvents\fP gathers all the pending input information from devices and places it on the event queue\&. Without calls to \fBSDL_PumpEvents\fP no events would ever be placed on the queue\&. Often calls the need for \fBSDL_PumpEvents\fP is hidden from the user since \fI\fBSDL_PollEvent\fP\fR and \fI\fBSDL_WaitEvent\fP\fR implicitly call \fBSDL_PumpEvents\fP\&. However, if you are not polling or waiting for events (e\&.g\&. your filtering them), then you must call \fBSDL_PumpEvents\fP to force an event queue update\&.
