I have't tried DP with PyOgre, but usually when you pass a window handle =
to
createDevice() it is best to use some other method than getMessages(). =
Note
that wx and winapi examples don't call getMessages() at all, they use =
the
message handling stuff provided by the library. When a message is sent =
to a
window it is placed on the message queue or sometimes posted directly to =
the
message handler. It is likely that PyOgre has it's own message handler =
that
handles and discards these messages before getMessages() has a chance to =
get
them. There is no simple way to prevent this.
If you really want to get all messages you can try to hook the window. =
There
are some libraries that allow you to do that.
By the way, if you don't use any DP rendering calls but only Media, =
Sound
and Input, you can also pass the window handle as the second =
(undocumented,
but don't worry as it's not going to change) argument to
showWindow(SHOW.SHOW, self.graphics.hWnd). This doesn't create internal
rendering objects and saves some resources.
