+    \class QPlatformSurfaceEvent
+    \since 5.5
+    \brief The QPlatformSurfaceEvent class is used to notify about native platform surface events.
+    \inmodule QtGui
+
+    \ingroup events
+
+    Platform window events are synchronously sent to windows and offscreen surfaces when their
+    underlying native surfaces are created or are about to be destroyed.
+
+    Applications can respond to these events to know when the underlying platform
+    surface exists.

+/*!
+    \enum QPlatformSurfaceEvent::SurfaceEventType
+
+    This enum describes the type of platform surface event. The possible types are:
+
+    \value SurfaceCreated               The underlying native surface has been created
+    \value SurfaceAboutToBeDestroyed    The underlying native surface will be destroyed immediately after this event
+
+    The \c SurfaceAboutToBeDestroyed event type is useful as a means of stopping rendering to
+    a platform window before it is destroyed.
