NAME

       SDL_KeyboardEvent - Keyboard button event structure (event.key.*)

HEADER FILE

       Defined in SDL3/SDL_events.h

SYNOPSIS

       #include "SDL3/SDL.h"

       typedef struct SDL_KeyboardEvent
       {
           SDL_EventType type;     /**< SDL_EVENT_KEY_DOWN or SDL_EVENT_KEY_UP */
           Uint32 reserved;
           Uint64 timestamp;       /**< In nanoseconds, populated using SDL_GetTicksNS() */
           SDL_WindowID windowID;  /**< The window with keyboard focus, if any */
           SDL_KeyboardID which;   /**< The keyboard instance id, or 0 if unknown or virtual */
           SDL_Scancode scancode;  /**< SDL physical key code */
           SDL_Keycode key;        /**< SDL virtual key code */
           SDL_Keymod mod;         /**< current key modifiers */
           Uint16 raw;             /**< The platform dependent scancode for this event */
           bool down;              /**< true if the key is pressed */
           bool repeat;            /**< true if this is a key repeat */
       } SDL_KeyboardEvent;

DESCRIPTION

       The key is the base SDL_Keycode
        generated  by pressing the scancode using the current keyboard layout, applying any options specified in
       SDL_HINT_KEYCODE_OPTIONS . You can get the SDL_Keycode
        corresponding to the event scancode and modifiers directly from the keyboard layout, bypassing

       SDL_HINT_KEYCODE_OPTIONS , by calling

       SDL_GetKeyFromScancode ().

AVAILABILITY

       This struct is available since SDL 3.2.0.
