Member Function Documentation

◆ onBackEvent()

virtual void onBackEvent ( )
virtual

Gets called when the "back" button is pressed (important on Android)

Calls onQuitEvent by default.

◆ onQuitEvent()

virtual void onQuitEvent ( )
virtual

Gets called when the user closes the main window or quit() has been called.

To continue with the main loop, call cancelQuit().

◆ onControllerBack()

virtual void onControllerBack ( )
virtual

Gets called when the "Back" button is pressed on any connected controller (Android only)

As the TV remote is registered as a controller this is important to handle Back on the TV remote. Most likely you won't need to overwrite this though, as it calls onBackEvent() by default and having Android's "Back" button to the same as "Back" on the TV remote is a good idea.

◆ onPauseEvent()

virtual void onPauseEvent ( )
virtual

Gets called when the main window loses focus or the app is put in the background.

On iOS and Android this will happen when the user switches to another app. As the main loop continues to run you might want to pause the game if necessary.
