Window closing being weird

Hey! this is my code for window closing:
 1
 2
 3
 4
 5
 6
 7
 8
 9
10
11
12
    while (fplPollEvent(currentEvent)) {
		
        switch (currentEvent->type) {
			
            case fplEventType_Window: {
                // A window event, like resize, lost/got focus, etc.
                switch (currentEvent->window.type) {
					
                    case fplWindowEventType_Closed: {
                        global_running = false;
                    } break;
             ...


And for pressing Alt + F4:

 1
 2
 3
 4
 5
 6
 7
 8
 9
10
11
12
13
14
fplKey mappedKey = currentEvent->keyboard.mappedKey;
                        if (state == fplButtonState_Release) {
							
							// F4 key pressed
                            if (mappedKey == fplKey_F4) {
								            
								fplKeyboardModifierFlags keyModifier = currentEvent->keyboard.modifiers;
                                if (keyModifier == fplKeyboardModifierFlags_LAlt
									|| keyModifier == fplKeyboardModifierFlags_RAlt) {
									
                                    global_running = false;
                                }
                            }
                        }


However, none of these cases are being hit, windows is handling these events before I can - the window just closes, but the game is running in the background. What am I doing wrong here?

Hi there,

sorry for the late answer, but now after i released fpl 0.9.5 i want to solve your issue now.
But first i need to explain why this happens:

The key combination F4 and alt-key are handled directly inside FPL in the win32 event for detecting the key-presses:

 1
 2
 3
 4
 5
 6
 7
 8
 9
10
...
fpl__HandleKeyboardButtonEvent(&appState->window, GetTickCount(), keyCode, modifiers, keyState, false);
if (wasDown != isDown) {
	if (isDown) {
		if (keyCode == VK_F4 && altKeyIsDown) {
			appState->window.isRunning = false;
		}
	}
}
...


I have no idea why i did it, i think i will remove this code so the window manager (Win32, X11) can handle this automatically.
Meaning in windows pressing Alt+F4 will send a WM_CLOSE message to your window and then FPL will stop the event handling.

Please post pack if that solves your problem (the develop branch contains the fix!)
thanks for explaining this!
