SDL_PumpEvents(3)	       SDL API Reference	     SDL_PumpEvents(3)

NAME
       SDL_PumpEvents  - Pumps the event loop, gathering events	from the input
       devices.

SYNOPSIS
       #include	"SDL.h"

       void SDL_PumpEvents(void);

DESCRIPTION
       Pumps the event loop, gathering events from the input devices.

       SDL_PumpEvents gathers all the pending input information	 from  devices
       and  places  it	on the event queue. Without calls to SDL_PumpEvents no
       events would ever be placed on the queue.  Often	 calls	the  need  for
       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. your	filtering them), then you must
       call SDL_PumpEvents to force an event queue update.

	      Note:

	      You can only call	this function in the thread that set the video
	      mode.

SEE ALSO
