Subject: [SDL] WinCE timers, continued
Here's a strange timer for Windows CE that doesn't ignore time across
suspends. It uses GetSystemTime to keep the time continuous, and GetTicks to
get finer-grained readings than 1 second. It detects the difference between
the GetTicks time and GetSystemTime time on power-on to keep the error within
one second max.
It's not a patch on the current win32 timer code -- took one look at that and
figured it had more than enough #ifdefs already. It's windows-ce specific.
Another thing I've noticed is that the Windows CE 4.0 and newer API has
functions warn processes about suspends. This is something SDL REALLY needs
for audio in particular, because turning it off while it's playing causes
anything that uses audio to hardlock the system on power-on. Unfortunately I
don't have 4.0 to play with. :(

.TH "SDL_SetEventFilter" "3" "Tue 11 Sep 2001, 22:59" "SDL" "SDL API Reference" .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\&. .RE .PP .RS \fBNote: .PP \fIBe Careful!\fP The event filter function may run in a different thread so be careful what you do within it\&. .RE .SH "SEE ALSO" .PP \fI\fBSDL_Event\fR\fR, \fI\fBSDL_GetEventFilter\fP\fR, \fI\fBSDL_PushEvent\fP\fR ...\" created by instant / docbook-to-man, Tue 11 Sep 2001, 22:59
