Subject: New test for overlays
While writting QNX Photon Overlay code I've found that the existent overlay test application is not enough, it performs too artificial tests - it always moves/resizes the overlay's viewport, but in the real life that happens very rare. So I decided to write new test (commonly base on testoverlay.c code) and called it testoverlay2 :)
moose.dat - raw 8 bit paletted data of the small movie. (It was a moose.gif, also included in the attachment as reference, but not needed for this test, it is just for information). I cannot find, who created this .gif, so no credits this time :) But over inet I saw this gif zillion times, so I think we do not infringing somebody rights :)

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 >
