The <TT CLASS="STRUCTFIELD" ><I >sym</I ></TT > field is extremely useful. It is the SDL-defined value of the key (see <A HREF="sdlkey.html" >SDL Key Syms</A >. This field is very useful when you are checking for certain key presses, like so: <PRE CLASS="PROGRAMLISTING" >. . while(SDL_PollEvent(&event)){ switch(event.type){ case SDL_KEYDOWN: if(event.key.keysym.sym==SDLK_LEFT) move_left(); break; . . . } } . .</PRE > <TT CLASS="STRUCTFIELD" ><I >mod</I ></TT > stores the current state of the keyboard modifiers as explained in <A HREF="sdlgetmodstate.html" ><TT CLASS="FUNCTION" >SDL_GetModState</TT ></A >. The <TT CLASS="STRUCTFIELD" ><I >unicode</I ></TT > is only used when UNICODE translation is enabled with <A HREF="sdlenableunicode.html" ><TT CLASS="FUNCTION" >SDL_EnableUNICODE</TT ></A >. If <TT CLASS="STRUCTFIELD" ><I >unicode</I ></TT > is non-zero then this a the UNICODE character corresponding to the keypress. If the high 9 bits of the character are 0, then this maps to the equivalent ASCII character: <PRE CLASS="PROGRAMLISTING" >char ch; if ( (keysym.unicode & 0xFF80) == 0 ) { ch = keysym.unicode & 0x7F; } else { printf("An International Character.\n"); }</PRE > UNICODE translation does have a slight overhead so don't enable it unless its needed.</P ></DIV ><DIV CLASS="REFSECT1" ><A NAME="AEN4705" ></A ><H2 >See Also</H2 ><P ><A HREF="sdlkey.html" ><SPAN CLASS="STRUCTNAME" >SDLKey</SPAN ></A ></P ></DIV ><DIV CLASS="NAVFOOTER" ><HR ALIGN="LEFT" WIDTH="100%"><TABLE SUMMARY="Footer navigation table" WIDTH="100%" BORDER="0" CELLPADDING="0" CELLSPACING="0" ><TR ><TD WIDTH="33%" ALIGN="left" VALIGN="top" ><A HREF="sdlquitevent.html" ACCESSKEY="P" >Prev</A ></TD ><TD WIDTH="34%" ALIGN="center" VALIGN="top" ><A HREF="index.html" ACCESSKEY="H" >Home</A ></TD ><TD WIDTH="33%" ALIGN="right" VALIGN="top" ><A HREF="sdlkey.html" ACCESSKEY="N" >Next</A ></TD ></TR ><TR ><TD WIDTH="33%" ALIGN="left" VALIGN="top" >SDL_QuitEvent</TD ><TD WIDTH="34%" ALIGN="center" VALIGN="top" ><A HREF="eventstructures.html" ACCESSKEY="U" >Up</A ></TD ><TD WIDTH="33%" ALIGN="right" VALIGN="top" >SDLKey</TD ></TR ></TABLE ></DIV ></BODY ></HTML >
