SDL_QuitEvent (SDL 1.3) & WndowID

SDL Development

Hi Sam,

I have a question regarding the SDL_QuitEvent in SDL 1.3.

The way I understand things (and according to the wiki entry), an
SDL_QuitEvent is generated when the user closes the window via the
window handles. However, I was under the impression that SDL 1.3 allows
for multiple windows.

If the above is true, then there is no way to determine (by the
SDL_QuitEvent alone) which window was closed, if you had a
multi-windowed application.

Would it not make sense to add a WindowID member to the SDL_QuitEvent,
as for most other event structs as well?

BR,

Matthias

You should check for closed window notification in the window event structure.------------------------
