Date: Sat, 15 Jan 2005 02:01:51 +0000 (UTC) From: jimrandomh Subject: [SDL] Re: Modifier keys pressed during initialization stick I wrote a simple test program which initializes SDL, prints the SDL version number, then prints any keydown and keyup events with their modifiers. (Source code below). Compilation was done using Visual Studio 6, release mode. My test sequence was: Start a command prompt. Type the name of the test program. shift down enter down (program starts) Wait for window to appear enter up shift up spacebar down spacebar up Under Windows 98, the output was correct: SDL 1.2.8 left shift down shift-return down shift-return up left shift up space down space up Under Windows 2000 and under Windows XP, the output was: SDL 1.2.8 shift-space down shift-space up Since shift was not held at the time space was pressed, this is incorrect. Similar results were observed with launching in different ways (including double-clicking in Windows Explorer), so it does not depend on the launching terminal.

0 if the event is a loss or 1 if it is a gain\&.

\fBstate\fR
\fBSDL_APPMOUSEFOCUS\fP if mouse focus was gained or lost, \fBSDL_APPINPUTFOCUS\fP if input focus was gained or lost, or \fBSDL_APPACTIVE\fP if the application was iconified (\fBgain\fR=0) or restored(\fBgain\fR=1)\&.
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
\fBSDL_ActiveEvent\fR is a member of the \fI\fBSDL_Event\fR\fR union and is used when an event of type \fBSDL_ACTIVEEVENT\fP is reported\&.
.PP
When the mouse leaves or enters the window area a \fBSDL_APPMOUSEFOCUS\fP type activation event occurs, if the mouse entered the window then \fBgain\fR will be 1, otherwise \fBgain\fR will be 0\&. A \fBSDL_APPINPUTFOCUS\fP type activation event occurs when the application loses or gains keyboard focus\&. This usually occurs when another application is made active\&. Finally, a \fBSDL_APPACTIVE\fP type event occurs when the application is either minimised/iconified (\fBgain\fR=0) or restored\&.
.PP
.RS
\fBNote:  
.PP
This event does not occur when an application window is first created\&.
