I managed to get a first implementation of it, which I tested for "simple" use
with tests sample apps, they work ok. I think this needs more tests.
Here is the diff against CVS/SDL12, attached.
FIXME:
Change #include <stdlib.h> to #include "SDL_stdlib.h"
Change #include <string.h> to #include "SDL_string.h"
Make sure nothing else broke because of this...

Subject: [SDL] Changing, at least some, anonymous enums to named enums.
Howdy,
Could, some if not all, enums be named rather than being anonymous enums?
I ran into troubles with the enum describing event types in SDL_events.h.
The problem is that an anonymous enum cannot be used in C++ templates like
so:
enum { C };
template< typename T >
void
f( T ) {
}
f( C );

Reasoning:
----------
1) Allows forward declaration of the SDL_Event union in C++. Please
note that in plain C it is possible to forward declare it.
2) Forward declaration is good because it allows encapsulation. It hides
the specific implementation and does not necessarily exposes SDL staff
to my appication's namespace
3) It can't harm plain C because tags are living in a different namespace
than typenames
4) It is already done like this in other places in SDL. Check for example
SDL_KeySym, and SDL_.*Event structures.
5) Right now I have to include SDL/event.h from a C++ header file. See 2)

Subject: [SDL] Mac OS X Video Drivers [patch]
I've updated/added the Carbon and X11 video drivers
to the Mac OS X port of SDL 1.2 (the CVS version),
and made the Cocoa driver and runtime *optional*.
The default is still Cocoa, and the "Quartz" driver.
But you can now also use "toolbox" for Carbon, and
"x11" for running with Apple's (or other) X11 server:
export SDL_VIDEODRIVER=x11
export SDL_VIDEO_GL_DRIVER=/usr/X11R6/lib/libGL.dylib
It also checks if the frameworks are available, by a:
#include <Carbon/Carbon.h> or #import <Cocoa/Cocoa.h>
(this should make it configure on plain Darwin as well?)
Here are the new configure targets:
--enable-video-cocoa use Cocoa/Quartz video driver default=yes
--enable-video-carbon use Carbon/QuickDraw video driver default=yes
--enable-video-x11 use X11 video driver default=no
./configure --enable-video-cocoa --enable-video-carbon
--enable-video-x11 \
--x-includes=/usr/X11R6/include --x-libraries=/usr/X11R6/lib
The Carbon version is just an updated version of the old
SDL driver for Mac OS 9, and could probably be improved...
(but it does work, including the Carbon version of SDLmain)
If you disable cocoa, you can run with -framework Carbon only,
and the C version of SDL_main.c. And if you disable carbon too,
you can still use the X11 version which doesn't require SDLmain.
I updated the DrawSprocket version, but did not include it.
(no blitters or VRAM GWorlds etc. available on OS X anyway)
Besides for Mac OS 9, I don't think there's any use for it ?
And note that any performance on Mac OS X equals OpenGL anyway...
You can get "fair" software SDL results on captured CG displays,
but for decent frame rates you need to be using GL for rendering.
Finally, here is the patch itself:

PS. It says "video", but as usual it applies to mouse/keyboard too.

Updated the previous Mac patch to disable Carbon by default.
Also "fixed" the SDL.spec again, so that it builds on Darwin.

Subject: RISC OS SDL Patches
Sam, I've attached a diff of the latest changes to libSDL for RISC OS
support. These changes are by Alan Buckley and myself.
The most significant of these are:
Optimised assembler blit rountines - I've attached the file
src/video/riscos/SDL_riscosASM.s which is needed for this.
Move to using /dev/dsp instead of its own audio implementation.
This means that src/audio/riscos/SDL_drenderer.c should be removed
Typo fixes. Mainly correct spelling of "RISC OS", but some from elsewhere
too.
* SDL_timer_running wasn't always updated correctly.
* Fixed occasional crash in SDL_SetTimer() when clearing threaded timers
* It was possible to get both the timer thread and event thread running
* Other misc. cleanup

Subject: [Fwd: Re: SDL_image on Solaris x86 help please]
apparently __i386__ is insufficient for Suns C Workshop compilers...
so a sun x86 user told me about this...and tested his own solution.
I think it wouldn't be a bad idea to add __i386 to the SDL_byteorder.h
so that it works for that compiler.

Subject: SDL Typedef Structs
Hi, Thanks for the SDL libraries, I have been using them for about a year
now and they are really brilliant. One thing that I have just found whilst
using them through C++ (and needing forward declarations) is that when you
typedef structs you sometimes use
typedef struct Name
{
...
}Name;
e.g. SDL_Surface
and other times use
typedef struct
{
...
}Name;
e.g. SDL_Rect
The first type works fine, when I define a header file I can just put
'struct Name;' at the top and use the Name throughout. However, the second
type is harder to use in a header, and I haven't found a way yet, other than
to include 'SDL.h' in the header file (undesirable). Would there be any harm
in changing the definition of SDL_Rect and such like to the second form?

Subject: SDL_types.h - fix for Tru64 MME
The following two problems are fixed.
1. Type of Uint64 is "long long" in SDL_types.h,
but is "long" in mmbasic.h(Tru64 UNIX MME header file).
2. Uint8, Uint16 and Uint32 are redefined
if you compile a file including mmbasic.h and SDL_types.h.

Subject: Misc fixes again
I've added custom WM info for the QNX (same as generic for now), which allows to compile all applications, which included SDL_syswm.h directly, otherwise DISABLE_X11 appearing to be not defined and X11 info was used instead, which is wrong.

Subject: SDL_HasAltiVec; BUGS file
the attached patch adds SDL_HasAltiVec to SDL CVS. Note that at this
point, this only works on MacOSX (and maybe darwin). I don't know how
to properly add a test for e.g. Linux/PPC at this point. I found an
email which might help in doing so:
http://zebra.fh-weingarten.de/~maxi/html/mplayer-dev-eng/2003-01msg00783.html
However, since I have no way to test on a non-OSX PowerPC system, I am
not comfortable blindly adding such code... I just hope that if
somebody from the Linux/PPC (or FreeBSD/PPC, or whatever) community
notices this, they'll jump up and provide a patch for us ;-)
From: Shawn Kirst
Subject: SDL-1.2.5 patch to add ARB_multisample support
Attached is a patch I have written for SDL-1.2.5 that adds ARB_multisample
support. I only have the X11 and Win32 video patched. The Win32 patch also
adds support for WGL_ARB_pixel_format, as it was required for getting a
multisample capable pixel format. No additional GL header files are required
to compile on either platform (though you need an up-to-date glx.h for X11).
Requesting a multisample pixel format is made possible using
SDL_GL_SetAttribute with the two new SDL_GLattr's I've added
(SDL_GL_SAMPLE_BUFFERS and SDL_GL_SAMPLES). I've been using SDL in my
projects for quite a while now, so I am happy to contribute back to the
project. Now you can have and control FSAA in your SDL/GL apps at the
application level!

Subject: Announce: sdl-nanox-patch
Sam,
I've created an update patch for enhanced Nano-X support
with SDL. I've created the patch against SDL-1.2.4. I'd appreciate
it if you would apply it to the next SDL version.
Enhancements include:
1. Small bugfixes to compile without errors
2. Support for direct client-side framebuffer access with configure option
3. Add dynamic pixel type support for hardware framebuffer; eliminating the
need for compile-time configuration option.
I've updated the README.NanoX file with the details.
This version has been tested with Microwindows v0.89pre9 CVS
and SMPEG 0.4.4. I've added multi-threading support to
Microwindows to support the multi-threaded SMPEG, and
all works fine. To turn on thread safety in Microwindows,
use THREADSAFE=Y in the Microwindows config file.
Thanks!
Regards,
Greg

It contains the following functions:
SDL_LoadObject(), SDL_LoadFunction(), SDL_UnloadObject()
The UNIX esd and arts audio code use these to dynamically load
their respective audio libraries.

now bracketed with (MWERKS && macintosh), so it'll work under metrowerks under any kind of mac build. Project Builder probably uses pack properly as it is GCC under the covers, so not worrying about it... :)
it sets packing to 68K 4-byte alignment, and turns on enumsalwaysint. resets them both to project defaults when done. note that if a project sets these things in a header and expects the settings to last throughout a C file (which is a nasty thing to do), it won't work. I think there's an overall-state push/pop system, but it's a deprecated interface so I'm loathe to use it...
