Why doesn't SDL emit SDL_QUIT when the last window is closed?

Question

I create three Windows and I Manage the input for SDL_QUIT to stop the game loop and for SDL_WINDOWEVENT_CLOSE to close the windows. Everything works fine until the last window is closed. As far as I know, now the SDL_QUIT Event must be emitted by SDL. But the Gameloop goes on.

I think I maybe have a kind of memory leak and there is still a windows saved. But I checked the window stack (Window::windows hashmap) it is empty. And also the variables in main are cleared.

I also tried to additionally clear the window and renderer variable in the hash map

Window::~Window() {

    // Delete Window and Renderer
    SDL_DestroyRenderer(Window::windows[this->windowID]->renderer);
    SDL_DestroyWindow(Window::windows[this->windowID]->window);

    Window::windows[this->windowID]->renderer = nullptr;
    Window::windows[this->windowID]->window = nullptr;

    // Delete Window from map
    Window::windows.erase(this->windowID);

    // Delete Window and Renderer
    SDL_DestroyRenderer(this->renderer);
    SDL_DestroyWindow(this->window);

    // Reset Pointer
    this->renderer = nullptr;
    this->window = nullptr;

Nothing worked.

Thank you o11c,

Your answer was the riddles solution. I just put SDL_Quit() out of the Destructor. This obviously blocked the Event Handler to catch SDL_QUIT. So I put it to the constructor in atexit()

After that (don't know why before not) I got an Segfault when deleting the window pointer in main. I deleted that and just set them all to nullptr.

Now the WindowManager works properly. Thank you for your help
