Patch by me to fix crash described below. --ryan. To: sdl@libsdl.org From: Rainer Deyke <rainerd@eldwood.com> Date: Tue, 16 Aug 2005 01:08:18 -0600 Subject: [SDL] Bug report: SDL_CreateRGBSurface with SDL_HWSURFACE crashes If SDL is in full-screen mode with a hardware video surface on OS X, SDL_CreateRGBSurface with SDL_HWSURFACE crashes. The crash occurs on line 109 of SDL_Surface.c. This was tested on OS X 10.3.9 with both SDL 1.2.8 and the latest CVS. Here is a small C++ program that demonstrates the problem: #include "SDL.h" #include <stdio.h> namespace { void wait_for_key() { SDL_Event e; printf("%d\n", SDL_GetAppState()); while (SDL_WaitEvent(&e)) { if (e.type == SDL_KEYDOWN || e.type == SDL_QUIT) return; } } } int main(int, char *[]) { SDL_Init(SDL_INIT_VIDEO); SDL_Surface *screen = SDL_SetVideoMode(640, 480, 32, SDL_FULLSCREEN | SDL_HWSURFACE); SDL_Surface *s = SDL_CreateRGBSurface(SDL_HWSURFACE, 640, 480, 32, screen->format->Rmask, screen->format->Gmask, screen->format->Bmask, screen->format->Amask); wait_for_key(); if (s) SDL_FreeSurface(s); SDL_Quit(); printf("Success!\n"); return 0; }

.SH "NAME"
SDL_SetEventFilter\- Sets up a filter to process all events before they are posted to the event queue\&.
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.PP
\fB#include "SDL\&.h"
.sp
\fBvoid \fBSDL_SetEventFilter\fP\fR(\fBSDL_EventFilter filter\fR);
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
This function sets up a filter to process all events before they are posted to the event queue\&. This is a very powerful and flexible feature\&. The filter is prototyped as: 
.PP
.nf
\f(CWtypedef int (*SDL_EventFilter)(const SDL_Event *event);\fR
.fi
.PP
 If the filter returns \fB1\fR, then the event will be added to the internal queue\&. If it returns \fB0\fR, then the event will be dropped from the queue\&. This allows selective filtering of dynamically\&.
.PP
There is one caveat when dealing with the \fBSDL_QUITEVENT\fP 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\&.
.PP
.RS
\fBNote:  
.PP
Events pushed onto the queue with \fI\fBSDL_PushEvent\fP\fR or \fI\fBSDL_PeepEvents\fP\fR do not get passed through the event filter\&.

\fIBe Careful!\fP The event filter function may run in a different thread so be careful what you do within it\&.
