Description Daniel 2009-04-24 02:27:23 UTC 
Created attachment 323 [details]
The attachment saves the NSView in the SDL_XSysWMinfo struct

I included a patch that addresses the issue for 32 bit systems by placing the NSView data into the data field of the SDL_XSysWMinfo struct
ideally a more OSX specific struct would exist with both NSWindow and NSView fields, each the size of a pointer rather than an int.

This particular patch resolves the issue for my application, however.

Now that Snow Leopard is out, do you have a 64-bit clean version of this patch?
Comment 2 Sam Lantinga 2009-12-14 22:52:56 UTC 
Ryan said he'll clean it up for 64-bit.
Comment 3 Ryan C. Gordon 2009-12-15 22:34:29 UTC

Comment 5 Sam Lantinga 2013-06-06 00:32:48 UTC 
FYI, I backed my patch out because you have access to the nswindow and can get the contentView (and other things) from it directly.
