Fixed bug 944 Tatu Kilappa 2010-02-11 12:13:20 PST When compiling with -Wconversion, gcc complains about a cast in SDL_endian.h that might change the result as we are casting from an int into an Uint16. This is of course not visible unless we are on a non-x86 platform where the assembler is not available. While it's not really an error, the warning is really annoying. To fix, change SDL_endian.h line 87 to: return(Uint16)((x<<8)|(x>>8)); Thank you.

.SH "NAME"
SDL_SysWMEvent \- Platform-dependent window manager event\&.
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
The system window manager event contains a pointer to system-specific information about unknown window manager events\&. If you enable this event using \fI\fBSDL_EventState()\fP\fR, it will be generated whenever unhandled events are received from the window manager\&. This can be used, for example, to implement cut-and-paste in your application\&. 
.PP
.nf
\f(CWtypedef struct {
         Uint8 type;   /* Always SDL_SysWM */
 } SDL_SysWMEvent;\fR
.fi
.PP
 If you want to obtain system-specific information about the window manager, you can fill the version member of a \fBSDL_SysWMinfo\fR structure (details can be found in \fBSDL_syswm\&.h\fP, which must be included) using the \fBSDL_VERSION()\fP macro found in \fBSDL_version\&.h\fP, and pass it to the function: 
.PP
.sp
\fBint \fBSDL_GetWMInfo\fP\fR(\fBSDL_SysWMinfo *info\fR);
