Bug 1919

Summary: Window icon disappears as soon as a renderer is created
Product: SDL Reporter: Sebastian <mightyofthefmc>
Component: renderAssignee: Sam Lantinga <slouken>
Status: RESOLVED FIXED QA Contact: Sam Lantinga <slouken>
Severity: minor    
Priority: P1 Keywords: target-2.0.0
Version: HG 2.0   
Hardware: x86_64   
OS: Linux   

Description Sebastian 2013-06-17 03:56:48 UTC 
Setting a window icon works just fine until a renderer is added to the window.
After adding the renderer the icon disappears.

Reproduce by:
- Take the example code from the wiki: http://wiki.libsdl.org/moin.fcg/SDL_SetWindowIcon

- Add the following two lines after  SDL_FreeSurface(surface);
  SDL_Delay(1000);
  SDL_Renderer* ren = SDL_CreateRenderer(window, -1, SDL_RENDERER_ACCELERATED);

-compile and run

You will see the window icon correctly at first. After the Delay the Icon will disappear.

I have tested this with the current HG on Linux 64bit.

Ah, I know what's going on here.  The renderer is recreating the window for an OpenGL context and SDL isn't copying the icon over to the new window.

(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!

What window manager are you seeing this with?  I'm not able to reproduce it with Unity.
Comment 4 Sam Lantinga 2013-07-27 05:28:06 UTC 
Nevermind, I can reproduce it here on Linux Mint.

Fixed, thanks!
