  458. /** \brief Allows back-button-press events on Windows Phone to be marked as handled
  459. *
  460. * Windows Phone devices typically feature a Back button. When pressed,
  461. * the OS will emit back-button-press events, which apps are expected to
  462. * handle in an appropriate manner. If apps do not explicitly mark these
  463. * events as 'Handled', then the OS will invoke its default behavior for
  464. * unhandled back-button-press events, which on Windows Phone 8 and 8.1 is to
  465. * terminate the app (and attempt to switch to the previous app, or to the
  466. * device's home screen).
  467. *
  468. * Setting the SDL_HINT_WINRT_HANDLE_BACK_BUTTON hint to "1" will cause SDL
  469. * to mark back-button-press events as Handled, if and when one is sent to
  470. * the app.
  471. *
  472. * Internally, Windows Phone sends back button events as parameters to
  473. * special back-button-press callback functions. Apps that need to respond
  474. * to back-button-press events are expected to register one or more
  475. * callback functions for such, shortly after being launched (during the
  476. * app's initialization phase). After the back button is pressed, the OS
  477. * will invoke these callbacks. If the app's callback(s) do not explicitly
  478. * mark the event as handled by the time they return, or if the app never
  479. * registers one of these callback, the OS will consider the event
  480. * un-handled, and it will apply its default back button behavior (terminate
  481. * the app).
  482. *
  483. * SDL registers its own back-button-press callback with the Windows Phone
  484. * OS. This callback will emit a pair of SDL key-press events (SDL_KEYDOWN
  485. * and SDL_KEYUP), each with a scancode of SDL_SCANCODE_AC_BACK, after which
  486. * it will check the contents of the hint, SDL_HINT_WINRT_HANDLE_BACK_BUTTON.
  487. * If the hint's value is set to "1", the back button event's Handled
  488. * property will get set to 'true'. If the hint's value is set to something
  489. * else, or if it is unset, SDL will leave the event's Handled property
  490. * alone. (By default, the OS sets this property to 'false', to note.)
  491. *
  492. * SDL apps can either set SDL_HINT_WINRT_HANDLE_BACK_BUTTON well before a
  493. * back button is pressed, or can set it in direct-response to a back button
  494. * being pressed.
  495. *
  496. * In order to get notified when a back button is pressed, SDL apps should
  497. * register a callback function with SDL_AddEventWatch(), and have it listen
  498. * for SDL_KEYDOWN events that have a scancode of SDL_SCANCODE_AC_BACK.
  499. * (Alternatively, SDL_KEYUP events can be listened-for. Listening for
  500. * either event type is suitable.) Any value of SDL_HINT_WINRT_HANDLE_BACK_BUTTON
  501. * set by such a callback, will be applied to the OS' current
  502. * back-button-press event.
  503. *
  504. * More details on back button behavior in Windows Phone apps can be found
  505. * at the following page, on Microsoft's developer site:
