SDL API Reference SDL_SysWMEvent(3)
NAME
SDL_SysWMEvent - Platform-dependent window manager event.
DESCRIPTION
The system window manager event contains a pointer tosystem-specific information about unknown window manager
events. If you enable this event using SDL_EventState(), it
will be generated whenever unhandled events are received from the window manager. This can be used, for example, toimplement cut-and-paste in your application.
typedef struct {Uint8 type; /* Always SDL_SysWM */
} SDL_SysWMEvent;
If you want to obtain system-specific information about the
window manager, you can fill the version member of aSDL_SysWMinfo structure (details can be found in
SDL_syswm.h, which must be included) using the SDL_VERSION()
macro found in SDL_version.h, and pass it to the function:
int SDL_GetWMInfo(SDL_SysWMinfo *info);
