Here ya go. This works just fine. One might complain that it doesn't
generate the event until after wake as completed (there is about 5
seconds between the screen coming up and the expose event), but I think
that's OK.

This is a very powerful and flexible feature. The filter is prototyped as: <PRE CLASS="PROGRAMLISTING" >typedef int (*SDL_EventFilter)(const SDL_Event *event);</PRE > If the filter returns <SPAN CLASS="RETURNVALUE" >1</SPAN >, then the event will be added to the internal queue. If it returns <SPAN CLASS="RETURNVALUE" >0</SPAN >, then the event will be dropped from the queue. This allows selective filtering of dynamically.</P ><P >There is one caveat when dealing with the <TT CLASS="LITERAL" >SDL_QUITEVENT</TT > event type. The event filter is only called when the window manager desires to close the application window. If the event filter returns 1, then the window will be closed, otherwise the window will remain open if possible. If the quit event is generated by an interrupt signal, it will bypass the internal queue and be delivered to the application at the next event poll.</P ><DIV CLASS="NOTE" ><BLOCKQUOTE CLASS="NOTE" ><P ><B >Note: </B >Events pushed onto the queue with <A HREF="sdlpushevent.html" ><TT CLASS="FUNCTION" >SDL_PushEvent</TT ></A > or <A HREF="sdlpeepevents.html" ><TT CLASS="FUNCTION" >SDL_PeepEvents</TT ></A > do not get passed through the event filter.</P ></BLOCKQUOTE ></DIV ><DIV CLASS="NOTE" ><BLOCKQUOTE CLASS="NOTE" ><P ><B >Note: </B ><I CLASS="EMPHASIS" >Be Careful!</I > The event filter function may run in a different thread so be careful what you do within it.</P ></BLOCKQUOTE ></DIV ></DIV ><DIV CLASS="REFSECT1" ><A NAME="AEN5214" ></A ><H2 >See Also</H2 ><P ><A HREF="sdlevent.html" ><SPAN CLASS="STRUCTNAME" >SDL_Event</SPAN ></A >, <A HREF="sdlgeteventfilter.html" ><TT CLASS="FUNCTION" >SDL_GetEventFilter</TT ></A >, <A HREF="sdlpushevent.html" ><TT CLASS="FUNCTION" >SDL_PushEvent</TT ></A ></P ></DIV ><DIV CLASS="NAVFOOTER" ><HR ALIGN="LEFT" WIDTH="100%"><TABLE WIDTH="100%" BORDER="0" CELLPADDING="0" CELLSPACING="0" ><TR ><TD WIDTH="33%" ALIGN="left" VALIGN="top" ><A HREF="sdlpushevent.html" >Prev</A ></TD ><TD WIDTH="34%" ALIGN="center" VALIGN="top" ><A HREF="index.html" >Home</A ></TD ><TD WIDTH="33%" ALIGN="right" VALIGN="top" ><A HREF="sdlgeteventfilter.html" >Next</A ></TD ></TR ><TR ><TD WIDTH="33%" ALIGN="left" VALIGN="top" >SDL_PushEvent</TD ><TD WIDTH="34%" ALIGN="center" VALIGN="top" ><A HREF="eventfunctions.html" >Up</A ></TD ><TD WIDTH="33%" ALIGN="right" VALIGN="top" >SDL_GetEventFilter</TD ></TR ></TABLE ></DIV ></BODY ></HTML >
