Remarks

This event is disabled by default. You can enable it with SDL_EventState(). You are encouraged to avoid this if you can find a less platform-specific way to accomplish your goals.

If you want to use this event you should include SDL_syswm.h and have access to the appropriate system headers.

SDL_SysWMEvent is a member of the SDL_Event union and is used when an event of type SDL_SYSWMEVENT is reported. You would access it through the event's syswm field.

If you want to obtain system-specific information about the window manager you can fill in the version member of an SDL_SysWMinfo structure using the SDL_VERSION() macro found in SDL_version.h, and pass it to the function SDL_GetWindowWMInfo().
