What do I use instead of RenderWindow.Events with SFML1.6?
« on: July 05, 2010, 09:31:51 pm »
Hey all,

I've just update SFML to 1.6, and it seems that the RenderWindow class no longer has an Events member.  I was accessing this to get an array containing all of the window events that needed to be processed.  Is there an equivalent in 1.6, and if not then what am I supposed to use?  It seems that the c++ library has a function GetEvent for the Window class, but I can't see an equivalent with the .Net version...
Thanks,

Wibbs

Well, I've rewritten my main loop to use DispatchEvents and event handlers, but would still like to know if it's possible to access the events before they're dispatched...

DispatchEvents is the only way to handle events in SFML 1.6.

What would you need the GetEvent function for?

Thanks for the reply on this.  On reflection I think that DispatchEvents will do everything I need it to, and it actually makes my code a lot cleaner.
