Function sdl2_sys::SDL_PumpEvents

pub unsafe extern "C" fn SDL_PumpEvents()

Pump the event loop, gathering events from the input devices.

This function updates the event queue and internal input device state.

WARNING: This should only be run in the thread that initialized the video subsystem, and for extra safety, you should consider only doing those things on the main thread in any case.

SDL_PumpEvents() gathers all the pending input information from devices and places it in the event queue. Without calls to SDL_PumpEvents() no events would ever be placed on the queue. Often the need for calls to SDL_PumpEvents() is hidden from the user since SDL_PollEvent() and SDL_WaitEvent() implicitly call SDL_PumpEvents(). However, if you are not polling or waiting for events (e.g. you are filtering them), then you must call SDL_PumpEvents() to force an event queue update.

\since This function is available since SDL 2.0.0.
