Bug 1508

Summary: SDL_WINDOWEVENT_MAXIMIZED/RESTORED not issued if doubleclick on title was used
Product: SDL Reporter: Andreas Ertelt <bugzilla-sdl>
Component: eventsAssignee: Sam Lantinga <slouken>
Status: ASSIGNED --- QA Contact: Sam Lantinga <slouken>
Severity: minor    
Priority: P1    
Version: HG 2.0   
Hardware: x86_64   
OS: Windows 7   

Description Andreas Ertelt 2012-05-27 21:36:33 UTC 
The application will not receive the SDL_WINDOWEVENT subevents SDL_WINDOWEVENT_MAXIMIZED and SDL_WINDOWEVENT_RESTORED if the window was maximized/restored using a doubleclick on the caption/title bar. Retrieving the correct current state is then also impossible using SDL_GetWindowFlags().

This will also stop SDL_RestoreWindow() from working correctly.

However determining the correct state using the windows API querying GWL_STYLE for the window with GetWindowLong and checking if the WS_MAXIMIZE bit is set works fine.

(Sorry if you get a lot of copies of this email, we're touching dozens of bug reports right now.)

Tagging a bunch of bugs as target-2.0.0, Priority 1.

This means we're in the final stretch for an official SDL 2.0.0 release! These are the bugs we really want to fix before shipping if humanly possible.

That being said, we don't promise to fix them because of this tag, we just want to make sure we don't forget to deal with them before we bless a final 2.0.0 release, and generally be organized about what we're aiming to ship.

Hopefully you'll hear more about this bug soon. If you have more information (including "this got fixed at some point, nevermind"), we would love to have you come add more information to the bug report when you have a moment.

Thanks!

To make this more convenient to fix: In this particular case only a WM_NCLBUTTONDBLCLK event is issued by windows with wParam being equal to HTCAPTION. In this case the appropriate SDL event depending on the window state should be generated.
