Hi Jan,
I'm sorry, but this does not solve my issue. I applied the patch and crosschecked that the resulting file looks fine.
The final function looks like:
static void sdl_grab_start(void)
{
/*
* If the application is not active, do not try to enter grab state. This
* prevents 'SDL_WM_GrabInput(SDL_GRAB_ON)' from blocking all the
* application (SDL bug).
*/
if (!(SDL_GetAppState() & SDL_APPINPUTFOCUS)) {
return;
}
if (guest_cursor) {
SDL_SetCursor(guest_sprite);
if (!kbd_mouse_is_absolute() && !absolute_enabled)
SDL_WarpMouse(guest_x, guest_y);
} else
sdl_hide_cursor();
SDL_WM_GrabInput(SDL_GRAB_ON);
gui_grab = 1;
sdl_update_caption();
}
Best regards,
Erik
