Re: [pygame] Quit pygame

Yes, you can try pygame.event.pump() before calling pygame.quit(). pygame.quit() does close SDL, so if the icon remains then it is an SDL quirk.

If I'm not mistaken, you have to have an event loop that watches for the
pygame.quit() event.

for event in pygame.event.get():
             if event.type == QUIT:
                running = False

Something like that.

Hello All,


i'm having a problem with pygame, ... i don't know ho to quit a pygame
session :-(

i'm on osx 10.6.4
from a standard python shell, i'm able to start a pygame session,

running

:

- import pygame ; from pygame.locals import * ; pygame.init()

import pygame
from pygame.locals import *
pygame.init()

the previouse instructions opens a nice pygame icon on my dock
the problem is that i don't know how to "quit" it.

Tyring to stop the pygame session using :

  pygame.quit()

i have no actions ... pygame is still running and i'm not able to stop

it.

To quit the pygame session i have to quit the python session itself ...

or

foce-quit the app (that always will close my python session)

have you any hints on how to quit a pygame session without the needs of
exit from python ?

thanks !

Massimo.
