This is an attributed tracking copy, not a locally reproduced or confirmed Graphix defect. Applicability, affected versions and ownership still require validation. No automatic synchronization or resolution is implied. Original descriptions and comments are preserved literally in Markdown code blocks to avoid notifying mentioned users or resolving SDL references against Graphix. Attachments, logs, patches and other linked resources remain at their original URLs; external resource contents and edit/event histories are not copied.

Graphix validation checklist

• Read the current upstream issue and discussion.
• Establish affected versions/platforms and whether Graphix is affected.
• Reproduce the reported behavior and identify the invariant owner.
• Implement an ownership-correct fix or document an upstream/external resolution.
• Verify regression coverage and applicable platform/runtime gates.

Original description

Program handle leak under widnows 10. It can be modified like this:

in the SetupWindowData(_THIS, SDL_Window * window, HWND hwnd, HWND parent, SDL_bool created) function
First：data->initializing = SDL_TRUE;   change to：data->initializing = SDL_FALSE;
Second：data->initializing = SDL_FALSE;   change to：data->initializing = SDL_TRUE;

Can you provide more details about what's leaking and why that fixes it?
