Hi.

Looks like Window::needsCursor is not working (using Gosu 0.7.27 under Ubuntu 10.04 64bits, also tried on Ubuntu 10.10 32bits). The cursor will always show regardless of what needsCursor returns.

The solution is simple. Basically, open GosuImpl/WindowX.cpp, go to line 161, where you will find:


        if (showingCursor && !window->needsCursor())

        {

            XUndefineCursor(display, this->window);

            showingCursor = false;

        }

        else if (!showingCursor && window->needsCursor())

        {

            XDefineCursor(display, this->window, emptyCursor);

            showingCursor = true;

        }

You just have to change that for:

        if (showingCursor && !window->needsCursor())
        {
      XDefineCursor(display, this->window, emptyCursor);
            showingCursor = false;
        }
        else if (!showingCursor && window->needsCursor())
        {
      XUndefineCursor(display, this->window);
            showingCursor = true;
        }


That's it.
