You can use the SDL_ACTIVEEVENT event :

"When the mouse leaves or enters the window area a SDL_APPMOUSEFOCUS type 
activation event occurs, if the mouse entered the window then gain will be 1, 
otherwise gain will be 0. A SDL_APPINPUTFOCUS type activation event occurs 
when the application loses or gains keyboard focus. This usually occurs when 
another application is made active. Finally, a SDL_APPACTIVE type event 
occurs when the application is either minimised/iconified (gain=0) or 
restored."
