More-than-one-window

SDL Development
1

Someone knows how create and manage more than one window with SDL?

I think it’s very important that SDL include this feature in a future release
if it’s not possible now. SDL it’s not used only for fullscreen games but
it’s useful in a greta range of applications.

What do you think about?

Hi!

Someone knows how create and manage more than one window with SDL?
Actually, it isn’t. A lot of the event-handling would have to be changed to
enable it.

I think it’s very important that SDL include this feature in a future
release if it’s not possible now. SDL it’s not used only for fullscreen
games but it’s useful in a greta range of applications.

SDL is meant for Game and Mulitmedia Development. For these applications you
usually don’t need more than one window. But in fact, me too, would like to
see this feature added, as would like to make my game-editors more gimp, and
not single-window styled.

Actually, I would tend to work around this. Have one process for each
desired window, then communicate between them using your favorite kind
of IPC. Rather klugey and in some cases awkward, but it’d work.
