Window / memory leak from accessing iOS sensor data?

« on: February 28, 2016, 10:37:16 pm »

Running on an iOS device with one or more sensors enabled (via SensorManager::setEnabled()), seems there's about a .1MB/s leak in memory (with around 60 FPS). Anybody else see this?

Playing with the Objective-C code in SensorImpl.mm, if I wrap accesses of the motionManager properties within autorelease pool blocks, then memory doesn't appear to leak anymore. I noticed too that SFML is building with ARC disabled. That seems out-of-favor these days (in favor of using ARC). I couldn't get toggling of ARC use to avoid the leak however.

Feature requests / Window-moved events

« on: January 14, 2016, 05:12:13 pm »

Haven't seen this asked for before... so here goes: how about the events code being expanded to include window movement events?

What do users think of this feature proposal?

I.e.:

• Add an enum entry to Event.hpp like Moved.
• Rename MouseMoveEvent to MoveEvent.
• Use MoveEvent for MouseMoved and Moved event types.
• Adding code to dispatch these new window moved events to the event retrieving methods of the Window class and any other appropriate places.

I realize I can get window position information and still react to window movement but having it be part of the normal events system/mechanism seems more elegant. Thank you.
