Using more than one Event in the main function
« on: December 05, 2009, 09:21:13 pm »
Hallo

I try to use 2 Events in the main function. The Event for closing down the window does not work when the control event is in front of it. When i disable the control event the closing event works...
Is there a way to have more than one event in the main function?

Code: [Select]

        sf::Event Control;
        while (App.GetEvent(Control)) {
            if ((Control.Type == sf::Event::KeyPressed) && (Control.Key.Code == sf::Key::Left))
                bool left = true;
            if ((Control.Type == sf::Event::KeyReleased) && (Control.Key.Code == sf::Key::Left))
                bool left = false;
            if ((Control.Type == sf::Event::KeyPressed) && (Control.Key.Code == sf::Key::Right))
                bool right = true;
            if ((Control.Type == sf::Event::KeyReleased) && (Control.Key.Code == sf::Key::Right))
                bool right = false;
            if ((Control.Type == sf::Event::KeyPressed) && (Control.Key.Code == sf::Key::Up))
                bool up = true;
            if ((Control.Type == sf::Event::KeyReleased) && (Control.Key.Code == sf::Key::Up))
                bool up = false;
            if ((Control.Type == sf::Event::KeyPressed) && (Control.Key.Code == sf::Key::Down))
                bool down = true;
            if ((Control.Type == sf::Event::KeyReleased) && (Control.Key.Code == sf::Key::Down))
                bool down = false;
        }

        sf::Event Event;
        while (App.GetEvent(Event)) {
            if (Event.Type == sf::Event::Closed)
                App.Close();
            if ((Event.Type == sf::Event::KeyPressed) && (Event.Key.Code == sf::Key::Escape))
                App.Close();
        }

No, because your first loop will pop all the events and leave nothing for the second one.

There's no point doing what you do, why do you want to use more than one event loop?
