Date: Mon, 3 May 2004 03:15:01 +0100 From: David Symmonds Subject: SDL Typedef Structs Hi, Thanks for the SDL libraries, I have been using them for about a year now and they are really brilliant. One thing that I have just found whilst using them through C++ (and needing forward declarations) is that when you typedef structs you sometimes use typedef struct Name { ... }Name; e.g. SDL_Surface and other times use typedef struct { ... }Name; e.g. SDL_Rect The first type works fine, when I define a header file I can just put 'struct Name;' at the top and use the Name throughout. However, the second type is harder to use in a header, and I haven't found a way yet, other than to include 'SDL.h' in the header file (undesirable). Would there be any harm in changing the definition of SDL_Rect and such like to the second form?

.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
\fBSDL_MouseButtonEvent\fR is a member of the \fI\fBSDL_Event\fR\fR union and is used when an event of type \fBSDL_MOUSEBUTTONDOWN\fP or \fBSDL_MOUSEBUTTONUP\fP is reported\&.
.PP
When a mouse button press or release is detected then number of the button pressed (from 1 to 255, with 1 usually being the left button and 2 the right) is placed into \fBbutton\fR, the position of the mouse when this event occured is stored in the \fBx\fR and the \fBy\fR fields\&. Like \fI\fBSDL_KeyboardEvent\fR\fR, information on whether the event was a press or a release event is stored in both the \fBtype\fR and \fBstate\fR fields, but this should be obvious\&.
