Input doesn't work on bash for Windows
Tried compiling and running the demos through the newly released bash on Ubuntu on Windows; compilation and running the demos worked fine, but input doesn't work. Seemingly holding down ctrl C + Q for a few seconds does trigger an exit on the keyboard demo, but it's not immediate.
I'm wondering what the problem is, and where in the code I might begin trying to fix it. I had a brief look at the event polling functions, but without any concrete idea what might be causing the issue I wasn't sure how to proceed. Any ideas?
Ah, no, the new Linux subsystem that shipped in the latest Windows 10 update. https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/wsl/2016/07/08/bash-on-ubuntu-on-windows-10-anniversary-update/
Oh I see, I keep autoupdating disabled on my windows 10 machine, have no idea when I have a chance to try it out. Don't know what it's doing and how.
Maybe you can ditch C and try https://github.com/nsf/termbox-go instead. It has native windows port. If that's an option.
I've used the Go version in the past, it is really good and I will surely use it again. Quite intrigued to see if I can debug this through the bash on Windows though, so will post if I figure anything out. Thanks for your responses anyway :)
