Functions

start()

void start();

Starts the update() loop.

update() will be called repeatedly, until you close the window or call stop().

stop()

void stop();

Stops the update() loop.

This is the programatic equivalent of a user closing the window.

pause()

void pause();

Pauses the update() loop.

No update() will be called, until you call resume(). User inputs are still processed.

resume()

void resume();

Resumes the update() loop if it was paused with pause().

It has no effect if the loop was already playing.

is_paused()

bool is_paused() const;

Returns true iff the update() loop is currently paused.
