int SDL_WaitEventTimeout(SDL_Event* event,
int timeout)
Function Parameters
event |
the SDL_Event structure to be filled in with the next event from the queue, or NULL |
timeout |

Remarks
If event is not NULL, the next event is removed from the queue and stored in the SDL_Event structure pointed to by event.
As this function implicitly calls SDL_PumpEvents(), you can only call this function in the thread that initialized the video subsystem.
