DESCRIPTION

SDL_MouseButtonEvent is a member of the SDL_Event union and is used
when an event of type SDL_MOUSEBUTTONDOWN or SDL_MOUSEBUTTONUP is
reported.

When a mouse button press or release is detected then number of the
button pressed (from 1 to 255, with 1 usually being the left button
and 2 the right) is placed into button, the position of the mouse
when this event occured is stored in the x and the y fields. Like
SDL_KeyboardEvent, information on whether the event was a press or a
release event is stored in both the type and state fields, but this
should be obvious.
