How to get a window handle?
« on: June 05, 2011, 07:02:23 pm »
Hello!
I have created a renderwindow in my program with App(sf::VideoMode(800, 600, 32), "SFML Window");
How can i get its handle (i need it to use in some winapi functions)?

In SFML 1.6 there's no clean way to do it, you must use FindWindow or something similar.

In SFML 2 there's a new function that returns the OS-specific handle of the window.
