  1695. * alone. (By default, the OS sets this property to 'false', to note.)

  1697. * SDL apps can either set SDL_HINT_WINRT_HANDLE_BACK_BUTTON well before a
  1698. * back button is pressed, or can set it in direct-response to a back button
  1699. * being pressed.
  1700. *
  1701. * In order to get notified when a back button is pressed, SDL apps should
  1702. * register a callback function with SDL_AddEventWatch(), and have it listen
  1703. * for SDL_KEYDOWN events that have a scancode of SDL_SCANCODE_AC_BACK.
  1704. * (Alternatively, SDL_KEYUP events can be listened-for. Listening for
  1705. * either event type is suitable.) Any value of SDL_HINT_WINRT_HANDLE_BACK_BUTTON
  1706. * set by such a callback, will be applied to the OS' current
  1707. * back-button-press event.
  1708. *
