BUG in touch/mouse callbacks on Windows

[Silver Ankh]

When touch is RELEASED two callbacks are triggered: love.touchreleased() and love.mousereleased() and it seems to be OK,but
when touch is PRESSED only love.touchpressed() is triggered, however love.mousepressed() is triggered when touch is moved or when touch is released (together with love.mousereleased()).
Try this simple program for better understanding.

Code: Select all

love.window.setFullscreen(true, "desktop")
local cMP, cMR, cTP, cTR = 0, 0, 0, 0
local cMPX, cMPY = 0, 0
local cMRX, cMRY = 0, 0
local cTPX, cTPY = 0, 0
local cTRX, cTRY = 0, 0
local xMP, xMR, xTP, xTR = "", "", "", ""

function love.mousepressed(x, y, button, isTouch)
    if x < 40 and y < 40 then
        love.event.quit()
    end
    cMP = cMP + 1
    xMP = "#" .. tostring(cMP) .. "." .. " X: " .. tostring(x) .. ", Y: " .. tostring(y)
    if isTouch then
        xMP = xMP .. " (Touch)"
    end
end

function love.mousereleased(x, y, button, isTouch)
    cMR = cMR + 1
    xMR = "#" .. tostring(cMR) .. "." .. " X: " .. tostring(x) .. ", Y: " .. tostring(y)
    if isTouch then
        xMR = xMR .. " (Touch)"
    end
end

function love.touchpressed(id, x, y, dx, dy, pressure)
    if x < 40 and y < 40 then
        love.event.quit()
    end
    cTP = cTP + 1
    xTP = "#" .. tostring(cTP) .. "." .. " X: " .. tostring(x) .. ", Y: " .. tostring(y)
end

function love.touchreleased(id, x, y, dx, dy, pressure)
    cTR = cTR + 1
    xTR = "#" .. tostring(cTR) .. "." .. " X: " .. tostring(x) .. ", Y: " .. tostring(y)
end

function love.update(dt)
end

function love.draw()
    love.graphics.setColor(1, 1, 1, 1)
    love.graphics.rectangle("fill", 0, 0, 40, 40)
    love.graphics.setColor(0, 0, 0, 1)
    love.graphics.print("QUIT", 5, 13)
    love.graphics.setColor(1, 1, 1, 1)
    love.graphics.print("Last .mousepressed()", 0, 50);   love.graphics.print(xMP, 160, 50)
    love.graphics.print("Last .mousereleased()", 0, 70);  love.graphics.print(xMR, 160, 70)
    love.graphics.print("Last .touchpressed()", 0, 90);   love.graphics.print(xTP, 160, 90)
    love.graphics.print("Last .touchreleased()", 0, 110); love.graphics.print(xTR, 160, 110)
end

love uses SDL for input, and SDL's touch/mouse event code on Windows uses Microsoft's Windows APIs pretty directly. This might be an issue with Windows or your touchscreen's drivers.

You can use the isTouch parameter for mousepressed/released to determine if it originated as a touch or click.

OK, love.touchpressed() and love.touchreleased() working fine, I can use them for touch instead of mouse callbacks, no problem.
Thank you

You probably don't understand what I mean. I can't use isTouch parameter because love.mousepressed() is NOT triggered when I touch the screen. Is triggered in other, wrong moment.
