SDL Development
1

hi all I have attached an image that describes my problem.
If u download this image and open it U will find a window written to it(in
the top ofit):

                                      SDL_app

my main problem is what is the command od SDL package that helps me creating
that window then writting to it SDL_app?

I have made the following:

SDL_Init( SDL_INIT_EVERYTHING );

SDL_Surface *screen = SDL_SetVideoMode(640,480,32, SDL_HWSURFACE );

SDL_WM_SetCaption( “SDL_app”,NULL );

but did not get that window as shown in the attached image?
note that i m using linux SUSE 9.2 and the programming language is C,and
SDL1.2.

yep.

SDL_WM_SetCaption( “SDL_app”,NULL );

I don’t see the problem. You’ve told it you want a caption of
"SDL_app" and the caption is indeed “SDL_app”.

but did not get that window as shown in the attached image?

How so? Is that image not of your app but perhaps an example that
you’re trying to replicate?

I’m not sure where the window updates occur but make sure you are
processing all the events being sent to your application, e.g.:

/* Check for events /
while(SDL_PollEvent(&event)){
switch(event.type){ / Inspect the event type /
case SDL_KEYDOWN: / Handle a KEYDOWN event /
printf(“Oh! Keypress\n”);
break;
case SDL_MOUSEMOTION:
/ etc /
break;
default: / Report an unhandled event */
printf(“I don’t know what this event is!\n”);
}
