Hi,
I had a look at customeventloop.c and at
http://wiki.libagar.org/wiki/Integrating_Agar_in_an_existing_GL_application
but something remains unclear to me: I used AG_InitVideoSDL, and with
previous versions of Agar I was using in my event loop a call to
'SDL_PollEvent( & currentEvent )' which was returning a SDL_Event that I
dispatched accordingly, possibly ending up in a 'AG_ProcessEvent( &
currentEvent ) ;'.
I am developping a library, using mostly SDL as a back-end, and
*possibly* using Agar for the GUI. So I would like to keep as much as
possible my already-available event-management logic, which routes
(here, SDL) events to dedicated mouse/joystick/keyboard handlers; thus I
would like to avoid as much as possible the use of the Agar
encapsulation for these kinds of events (AG_PendingEvents,
AG_GetNextEvent, AG_DRIVER_MOUSE_BUTTON_DOWN, etc.), since Agar may or
may not used by the applications, and just be able to directly feed Agar
with driver-specific (SDL) events.
How would you proceed to do so? I was thinking to using the newer
AG_ProcessEvent, however:
- first argument is the driver: I do not know what to specify here
in my case, NULL? (or a SDL-specific Agar driver?)
- second is the Agar event, I thus need a SDL to Agar Event
converter, for that I suppose I would need a subset of the code in
AG_SDL_GetNextEvent, which performs two operations: the polling and the
conversion, whereas I would need the latter only; another option would
be to use directly AG_SDL_GetNextEvent and disable my own polling, but
it would send all events to Agar, and force the rest of the library code
to deal with Agar events instead of SDL ones, whereas Agar may be disabled
Any hint? Best approach I would see would be to move the SDL -> Agar
event conversion into a dedicated function that would be callable from
my user code.
Thanks in advance for any advice,
Best regards,
Olivier Boudeville.
