C/C++ Allegro program causes Windows 7 to switch to Aero Basic
- by Matt H
Hi SO,
I'm just trying out the allegro library, and here is the code which I've got so far:
#include <allegro.h>
int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
allegro_init(); // initialize the allegro libraries
install_keyboard(); // initialize keyboard functions
set_color_depth(16); // set the color depth
set_gfx_mode(GFX_AUTODETECT_WINDOWED, 640, 480, 0, 0); // set up 640*480px window
BITMAP *pic = NULL;
pic = load_bitmap("C:/picture.bmp", NULL); // load the picture
blit(pic, screen, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1000, 1000);
readkey();
destroy_bitmap(pic);
return 0;
}
END_OF_MAIN()
It works fine, but when I run it, while the program's window is open, Windows 7 changes the theme from Aero to Aero basic. If you aren't sure what I mean, this pops up (I got this from Google, which is why it says Vista rather than Windows 7):
1) Why?
2) How can I ensure that this doesn't happen?
