Fixed bug #901 Tim Angus 2009-12-11 11:45:46 PST Disable mouse event generation when state is not SDL_APPMOUSEFOCUS If a Windows SDL application is minimised by using alt-tab, SDL_APPMOUSEFOCUS is lost as part of the minimisation. Unfortunately, the directx driver doesn't pay any attention to this state when generating mouse button events, so clicking on the Desktop can cause mouse clicks in the SDL application, while it's still minimised. The attached patch fixes this. It looks much more complicated than it actually is due to indentation; here it is ignoring whitespace: tma@abraxas:~/sources/SDL-1.2-svn$ svn diff -x -b Index: src/video/windx5/SDL_dx5events.c =================================================================== --- src/video/windx5/SDL_dx5events.c (revision 5376) +++ src/video/windx5/SDL_dx5events.c (working copy) @@ -374,10 +374,9 @@ if ( !(SDL_GetAppState() & SDL_APPMOUSEFOCUS) ) { mouse_lost = 1; ClipCursor(NULL); - } - + } else { /* If the mouse was lost, regain some sense of mouse state */ - if ( mouse_lost && (SDL_GetAppState() & SDL_APPMOUSEFOCUS) ) { + if ( mouse_lost ) { POINT mouse_pos; Uint8 old_state; Uint8 new_state; @@ -548,6 +547,7 @@ if ( xrel || yrel ) { post_mouse_motion(1, xrel, yrel); } + } } /* The main Win32 event handler */

\fBSDL_QuitEvent\fR is a member of the \fI\fBSDL_Event\fR\fR union and is used whan an event of type \fBSDL_QUIT\fP is reported\&.
.PP
As can be seen, the SDL_QuitEvent structure serves no useful purpose\&. The event itself, on the other hand, is very important\&. If you filter out or ignore a quit event then it is impossible for the user to close the window\&. On the other hand, if you do accept a quit event then the application window will be closed, and screen updates will still report success event though the application will no longer be visible\&.
