closeDevice Error

[defx2]

I get an Memory Error when i press the ESC-Key. but only when he is not in fullscreen mode. Why ??

Code: Select all

		if (event.EventType == EET_KEY_INPUT_EVENT &&
			event.KeyInput.Key == KEY_ESCAPE &&
			event.KeyInput.PressedDown == false)
		{
			device->closeDevice();
		}

There is an Bug in the Forum Search. "Search for all terms" show the same like "Search for any terms" when i search for more than one therms.[/code]

I don't use closeDevice (didn't even know it existed). I just use return false; and that works fine for me

where do you insert this "return false". My closeDevice is in the event Receiver.

Code: Select all

if (what ever key you want goes here)
{
    return false;
}

call device->closeDevice() after you leafe your game loop. if you close the device in the eventreceiver it can't return properly from the event loop and things get mixed up. especialy if there are still window messages to handel if operating in window mode.....

so use a "global" boolean which you set to false in the receiver if you want to quit (as Robomaniac suggested) and in the game loop test against that boolean.
