* Added display parameter to many internal functions so video modes can be set on displays that aren't the public current one.
* The fullscreen mode is associated with fullscreen windows - not displays, so different windows more naturally have a mode associated with them based on their width and height. It's no longer necessary to specify a fullscreen mode, a default one will be picked automatically for fullscreen windows.
If type is ::SDL_HAPTIC_CARTESIAN, direction is encoded by three positions
367 * (X axis, Y axis and Z axis (with 3 axes)). ::SDL_HAPTIC_CARTESIAN
uses
368 * the first three \c dir parameters. The cardinal directions would
be:
369 * - North: 0,-1, 0
370 * - East: -1, 0, 0
371 * - South: 0, 1, 0
372 * - West: 1, 0, 0
typedef struct SDL_HapticDirection
{
Uint8 type; /**< The type of encoding. */
Uint16 dir[3]; /**< The encoded direction. */
} SDL_HapticDirection;
An unsigned int can't store negative values and I don't see an alternate way to
encode them in the docs or source. The best I have been able to come up with is
using a negative magnitude for the effect but this will only get me 2 of the 4
quadrants in the plane for 2d effects. I looked at the win32 and linux
implementations and I believe is is safe to use signed ints in the direction
struct. I am unfamiliar with the darwin haptics API so I don't know if it is
safe.
This one is quite puzzling. I found a partial workaround, but I don't fully understand the reasons yet.
First, the console is complaining about not finding a nib for MainWindow.
I tried removing the entry for this in the info.plist, and the message went away, but it didn't really change anything.
Second, I stepped through this with the debugger and broke up some lines. It seems that the basic act of calling
view = [SDL_uikitopenglview alloc];
or even
view = [SDL_uikitview alloc]
will crash the program. The debugger messages plus the stack trace make me think it's not finding the SDL_uikitview classes for some reason. But I don't understand why this would be.
view = [UIView alloc] will not crash the program.
For kicks, I added a new definition of a class called SDL_object which subclasses NSObject in the same files as SDL_uikitopenglview and then call
view = [SDL_object alloc];
This does not crash the program.
So, then I modified SDL_object to subclass UIView. No crash.
Next, I made SDL_object subclass UIView<UITextFieldDelegate> . This crashes.
So it is the act of conforming to the UITextFieldDelegate protocol that is crashing things.
I don't understand why it would crash on alloc though. I'm guessing either a delegate needs to be set somewhere or one of the required methods needs to be implemented. But in the former case, I would not expect a crash, but a silent message to nil and something else doesn't work. And in the latter case, I would expect a compiler warning and an exception thrown instead of a crash.
Anyway, my temporary workaround is to change the interface declaration for SDL_uikitview to look like:
#if SDL_IPHONE_KEYBOARD
@interface SDL_uikitview : UIView<UITextFieldDelegate> {
#else
@interface SDL_uikitview : UIView {
#endif
And then disable the keyboard support in the SDL_config_iphoneos.h file.
/* enable iPhone keyboard support */
#define SDL_IPHONE_KEYBOARD 0

I'm building "fat" SDL 1.3 libraries for MacOSX, but now I am running into the
issue that audio does not work on PowerPC macintoshes if you build the library
on an Intel.
The problem is that configure hard-codes the byteorder, which is then stored in
SDL_config.h
Eric Wing to Sam
I've been sitting on this too long. I need to push.
It's untested because of the unrelated crashing bug I've been experiencing.
Also have a fix for SIZEOF_VOIDP in the config for both iPhone and Mac.
If this causes problems on any compiler, please report a bug to
http://bugzilla.libsdl.org/
and include the platform and version of compiler you're using.

patch to change HAVE_ICONV to HAVE_ICONV_H
There are two separate iconv checks in configure -- one for the header file and
one for the library. include/SDL_stdinc.h uses the library define to see
whether or not it should reference the types defined in the header, which
naturally breaks if the library exists and the header does not.
Pierre Phaneuf 2008-05-01 10:29:16 PDT
SDL_VIDEO_DRIVER_X11 is not defined in SDL_config_macosx.h
There's a number of SDL_VIDEO_DRIVER_xxx defined in SDL_config_macosx.h, but
not that one, even though it is actually present.
The linux code appears to be complete and *should* be the base of all Unix and GCC based versions. The macosx and win32 versions
are currently just copies of the dummy code. I will begin working on the windows version as soon as this check in is done. I
need someone to work on the Mac OS X version.
I'm afraid that this check in will break QNX (Sorry!)
Unfortunately the audio and cdrom systems do not build at all, and if you
disable those, SDL still fails to link with these errors:
Undefined symbols:

/test/testatomic.c performs absolutely basic tests to show that the function work as expected. Need a second test to do more detailed tests.
/include/SDL_atomic.h provides declarations for all included functions.
/src/atomic/linux/SDL_atomic.c provided all the functions. On a generic built the 64 bit functions work, but they are emulated. On a build for -march=pentium and above the 64 bit functions use native instructions
/src/atomic/dummy/SDL_atomic.c emulates all the operations using SDL_mutex.h.
/src/atomic/win32/SDL_atomic.c is a copy of dummy
/src/atomic/macosx/SDL_atomic.s is a copy of dummy
These versions of SDL_atomic.c provide a frame work for building the library with a mixture of native and emulated functions. This allows the whole library to be provided on all platforms. (I hope.)
I hope this fits with the SDL philosophy of either providing a common subset or emulating when the platform is missing a feature.
I have not added dummy, macosx, or win32 to the build. They are there as place holders for future work.
I have modified congifure.in to compile sources in /src/atomic/linux. (The SDL configure.in file is an amazing piece of work and I hope I didn't mess it up. :-)
It also update configure.in to compile the linux version of the library. The three versions are all dummies
implementations that do nothing. They are being checked in as place holders. Mostly, I just wanted to get
place holders and the configure.in checked in.
Since many different event structures include windowID it should be placed near
the beginning of the structure (preferably right after type) so it's position
is the same between different events.
This is to avoid code like this:
if (event.type == SDL_WINDOWEVENT)
win = event.window.windowID;
else if ((SDL_EVENTMASK(event.type) & SDL_KEYEVENTMASK) != 0)
win = event.key.windowID;
else if (event.type == SDL_TEXTINPUT)
win = event.text.windowID;
else if (event.type == SDL_MOUSEMOTION)
win = event.motion.windowID;
else if ((SDL_EVENTMASK(event.type) & (SDL_MOUBUTTONDOWNMASK |
SDL_MOUBUTTONUPMASK)) != 0)
win = event.button.windowID;
else if (event.type == SDL_MOUSEWHEEL)
win = event.wheel.windowID;
...
in favor of:
win = event.window.windowID;
I have prepared a set of patches to readd WindowsCE support to SDL 1.3.
I've created a new GAPI/Rawframebuffer and a DirectDraw renderer.
Both renderers are work in progress and there are several unimplemented
cases. (Notably
RenderLine/RenderPoint/RenderFill/QueryTexturePixels/UpdateTexture and
texture blending )
Nevertheless I am successfully using these renderers together with the
SDL software renderer. (On most devices the SDL software renderer will
be much faster as there are only badly optimized vendor drivers available)
I send these patches now in this unpolished state because there seems to
be some interest in win ce and someone has to start supporting SDL 1.3
Now on to the patches:
wince_events_window_fixes.patch
fixes some wince incompatibilities and adds fullscreen support via
SHFullScreen. NOTE: This patch shouldn't have any side effects on
Windows, but I have NOT tested it on Windows, so please double-check.
This patch doesn't dependent on the following ones.
wince_renderers_system.patch
This patch does all necessary modifications to the SDL system.
- it adds the renderers to the configure system
- it adds the renderers to win32video
SDL_ceddrawrender.c
SDL_ceddrawrender.h
SDL_gapirender_c.h
SDL_gapirender.c
SDL_gapirender.h
these files add the new render drivers and should be placed in
src/video/win32
Some notes to people who want to test this:
- I have only compiled sdl with ming32ce, so the VisualC files are not
up to date
- As mingw32ce has no ddraw.h this file must be taken from the MS SDK
and modified to work with gcc
- I had to modify line 2611 in configure.in to
EXTRA_LDFLAGS="$EXTRA_LDFLAGS -lcoredll -lcommctrl -lmmtimer
-Wl,--image-base -Wl,0x10000"
otherwise GetCPinfo wouldn't link. If someone knows whats causing this
I'd be happy to hear about it.
It would be great if these patches could make their way into SVN as this
would make collaboration much much easier.
I'm out of office for the next week and therefore will be unavailable
via email.

#define SDL_NO_COMPAT
before you include SDL.h then SDL_compat.h will never be included in your code.
This is useful for making sure that your code uses only SDL 1.3 features.
It is also handy for finding things that are in SDL_compat.h that belong elsewhere.

Subject: OpenGL 3.0 Context Creation
I've attached a patch which implements OpenGL 3.x context creation on
the latest SVN. I've added two options to SDL_GL_SetAttribute, these
are SDL_GL_CONTEXT_MAJOR_VERSION and SDL_GL_CONTEXT_MINOR_VERSION.
These default to 2 and 1 respectively. If the major version is less
than 3 then the current context creation method is used, otherwise the
appropriate new context creation function is called (depending on the
platform).
Sample code:
if (SDL_Init(SDL_INIT_VIDEO) != 0) {
printf("Unable to initialize SDL: %s\n", SDL_GetError());
return 1;
}
SDL_GL_SetAttribute(SDL_GL_CONTEXT_MAJOR_VERSION, 3); //Without these 2 lines, SDL will create a GL 2.x context
SDL_GL_SetAttribute(SDL_GL_CONTEXT_MINOR_VERSION, 0);
SDL_GL_SetAttribute(SDL_GL_DOUBLEBUFFER, 1);
SDL_Surface* screen = SDL_SetVideoMode( 640, 480, 16, SDL_OPENGL | SDL_FULLSCREEN );
I've implemented context creation on both Win32 and X and run basic
tests on both. This patch doesn't provide access to all the options
allowed by the new context creation (e.g. shared contexts, forward
compatible contexts) but they can be added pretty easily.

Subject: New QNX patches
Please apply patch qnx4.diff, which is attached. What has been done:
1)Added back OpenGL ES renderer for QNX target. Added few corrections to
OpenGL ES renderer to let it work under QNX. OpenGL ES renderer do not
support textures under QNX, so I think some additional work must be done.
2) Added GL_OES_query_matrix extension to SDL_opengles.h header file, which
required by OpenGL ES 1.1 specification.
3) Added attribute clearing at the entrance of function
SDL_GL_GetAttribure(). Added error checking into the function
SDL_GL_GetAttribure(), because some attributes can't be obtained in OpenGL
ES 1.0.
4) Porting testdyngles to OpenGL ES 1.0 (1.1 has glColor4ub() and
glColor4f() functions, but 1.0 has glColor4f() only).
5) Added error checking after obtaining attributes using
SDL_GL_GetAttribute() function to the testgl2 and testgles.
6) Small correction to testmultiaudio with printing errors.
7) Added software and accelerated OpenGL ES 1.0 support into the QNX GF
driver.
Please remove ./src/audio/nto directory - it will not be used anymore.
Please create ./src/audio/qsa directory and add content of the archive
qsa.tar.gz into this directory. I rewrote some sound code, added support for
multiple audio cards, enumeration, etc. Added initial support for capture.
As far as I can understand SDL 1.3 is not supporting audio capture right now
? Sam, Am I right ? Or audio capture must be supported through the
PlayDevice routine ?
And last, please put file SDL_gf_opengles.c to the ./src/video/qnxgf
directory. It is OpenGL ES 1.1 emulation layer for some functions, which are
not supported by OpenGL ES 1.0.
From: "Mike Gorchak"
Subject: Re: About QNX support in SDL 1.3
Here is another batch of patches.
1) Makefile.in - added SDL_opengles.h header as header to install.
2) configure.in - Added special define to detect Common Lite OpenGL ES
library in case if Common library is not installed. Added check for
clock_gettime in libc (in QNX it is in libc).
3) SDL_config.h.in - Added SDL_VIDEO_RENDER_OPENGL_ES and
SDL_VIDEO_OPENGL_ES declarations for configure script autodetection.
4) SDL_opengles.h - Added GL_API definition if it is not defined. Added
extension GL_OES_draw_texture because OpenGL ES Renderer uses it without
declaration. Added GL_OES_vertex_buffer_object extension, which is supported
under QNX OpenGL ES. Added GL_OES_single_precision extension.
5) To the test directory I've added building OpenGL ES test applications
through the autotools suite. Was support for iPhone IDE building only.

Description From esigra 2008-01-07 16:20:21 (-) [reply]
I try to get a clean compile for a project using SDL. But I get warnings
from SDL headers when I use -Wold-style-cast. This is especially bad
because I plan to build the software with -Werror=old-style-cast when we
have switched over to GCC 4.2, which has that option.
But this problem can be fixed in the SDL headers. I checked out the SVN
version and made some patches. See the attached patch.
* Some math functions become intrinsic in release mode, so we need to
convert all the math functions into SDL math functions, like we did
with the stdlib functions.
* Constant initializers of 8-bit values become calls to memset() in
release mode, but memset() itself is an intrinsic when explicitly
called. So we'll just explicitly call memset() in those cases.

The attached contains the following directfb changes:

- Use linux-input by default. May be switched off by environment variable.
- Added some code which will use directfb's x11 backend when DISPLAY is set.

Subject: Fusionsound audio driver
attached is a diff containing a audio driver for the FusionSound
library. This sound library is closely related to DirectFB and uses the
same transport (fusion) as DirectFB when running applications "remote",

DirectFB redirects video. This may be handy for everyone using SDL over
DirectFB.

I have implemented the above api for the opengl, x11, directfb and
software renderers. I have also renamed *TEXTUREBLENDMODE* constants to
BLENDMODE*. The unix build compiles. The windows renderer still needs to
be updated, but I have no windows development machine at hand. Have a
look at the x11 renderer for a sample.
Vector games now run at 90% both on opengl and directfb in comparison to
sdlmame's own opengl renderer. The same applies to raster games.
The diff also includes
a) Changed XDrawRect to XFillRect in x11 renderer
b) A number of changes to fix blending and modulation issues in the
directfb renderer.
The API specifies that SDL_OpenAudio() will fill out the 'desired' audio spec
with the correct samples and size set by the driver. This value is important
since it may be used by applications that size audio buffers, etc.
However, we want to allow advanced applications to call SDL_OpenAudioDevice()
which gets passed a const 'desired' parameter, and have the correct data filled
into the 'obtained' parameter, possibly allowing or not allowing format changes.
So... 'obtained' becomes the audio format the user callback is expected to use,
and we add flags to allow the application to specify which format changes are
allowed.
Note: We really need to add a way to query the 'obtained' audio spec.
One or two things got moved around, but largely this is hooked up correctly
in the Unix configure system now: it can be dynamically loaded and fallback
gracefully if not available, or libXi can be directly linked to libSDL.
XInput support can be --disable'd from the configure script, too (defaults to
enabled).
Please note that while the framework is in place to gracefully fallback, the
current state of the source requires XInput. We'll need to adjust a few
things still to correct this.

Here goes! Thanks for having a look. Don't hesitate to comment if
anything does not conform to your ideas.
One caveat: Committing this now may break compilability of some video
drivers - specifically, if they use any of the SDLK_* codes that were
obsoleted and moved into SDL_compat.h. I only tried Cocoa (which did
break, but is already fixed) and X11 (which didn't, but then its key
handling is #iffed out). If that's a problem, it may need to go into
a branch.

Prepping for using MMX and SSE intrinsics instead of inline assembly.
.. except for memcpy equivalents which only get faster if they can
exploit the parallelism of loading into multiple SIMD registers. :)
- SDL_Surface is a system memory representation of pixel data
- SDL_Texture is a video memory representation of pixel data
The concept of SDL_Surface with SDL_HWSURFACE is no longer used.
Separated SDL_Texture types by usage rather than memory type
- SDL_TEXTUREACCESS_STATIC is for rarely changed pixel data,
can be placed in video memory.
- SDL_TEXTUREACCESS_STREAMING is for frequently changing pixel
data, usually placed in system memory or AGP memory.
Optimized the SDL_compat usage of the OpenGL renderer by only
using one copy of the framebuffer instead of two.
I'm not entirely happy with them. Maybe the right way to go is to leave
SDL_iconv() taking a non-const inbuf? How often are we converting const
strings anyway?
On tracing it turns out to fail from SDL_WM_SetCaption()
On going through the function it looks like the SDL_free() function is called
every alternate time with an invalid pointer that has already been freed.
display, which is a fast path used for the whole-surface SDL 1.2 API.
Solved the flicker problems by implementing a backbuffer in the GDI renderer.
Unfortunately, now using the GDI renderer with a backbuffer and HBITMAPs is
significantly slower than SDL's surface code. *sigh*
Added DirectInput joystick code, contributed by Glenn Maynard.
This fixes a problem with the Windows Multimedia joystick driver
not showing all 6 axes on a GameCube controller converter, which
was donated by Jacob Kolding.
Currently there are two Classic-only drivers defined in "SDL_config_macos.h",
and the ones in "SDL_config_macosx.h" are Mach-O/framework-only (i.e. not CFM)
As a workaround, I disabled CDROM and JOYSTICK when building SDL for CFM
Carbon.
The current SVN trunk is missing the SDLCALL specifier at numerous locations.
It has to be added for all (possibly user provided) callbacks.
I stumbled over this while creating a makefile for the OpenWatcom compiler for
Win32.
- A change to define CXX in fatbuild, which comforts the configure script a little, even if we don't use C++ anywhere.
- Some code to see how many CPU cores exist and parallelize make across them.
- CFLAGS that apply to both archs are specified seperately (-O3, -pipe, etc)
- -fvisibility=hidden for the gcc4 builds
- a "clean", "clean-ppc" and "clean-x86" command
- Fix to SDL_config_macosx.h for the HAVE_ALLOCA_H thing.
Now builds on an Intel Mac.
The SDL platform header shouldn't dictate the OS target API for other
applications. The build system should define the target API for building
SDL internally.
[I'm fixing this for the public headers, but I'm not going to bother for the SDL library code (yet)]
To clarify: Normaly, GCC (or, to be precise, the preprocessor) will ignore
this, and compile the code happily. However, one can specify -Wundef to get a
warning about this.
One can probably argue whether to consider this a bug or not; but I think that
(a) from a semantic point of view, using "#if FOO" when FOO is not defined is
strange, and (b) since it is possible to trigger a warning about this, and a
trivial fix exists, it should be corrected.
I can think of two alternative patches, BTW:
1) Simply use #define HAVE_FOO 0, instead of not defining HAVE_FOO at all
2) Change
#if HAVE_FOO
to
#if HAVE_FOO+0
which always does the right thing.
But I think I still prefer the attached patch :-).
The proper name of Apple's operating system is "Mac OS X" not "MacOS X", as can
bee seen in many places, for example http://www.apple.com/macosx/). This
contrasts the naming of the old operating system, which was called "MacOS" and
today is often refered to as "MacOS Classic".
The attached patches fixes the misuse of the name "MacOS X" in both the SDL12
and sdlweb CVS modules.
The current definition of int32_t, uint32_t, uintptr_t
doesn't match what the Mac system headers already have...
Since it's an old 16/32 bit platform, the system headers
expect the types to use "long" and not "int" like they do.
When switching to "UNIX-style paths" as needed for the new includes,
including <GL/gl.h> and <GL/glu.h> doesn't work anymore on Mac OS...
The two headers are really located in the OpenGL SDK 1.2 CFM like this:
OpenGL:Headers:gl.h
OpenGL:Headers:glu.h
There are also some compat copies, that *used* to work with Mac paths:
OpenGL:Headers:GL/gl.h
OpenGL:Headers:GL/glu.h
The easiest fix is to make SDL_opengl.h include the proper header names,
by adding a special case for the MACOS platform in addition to the MACOSX
SDL_config.h is no longer in CVS. Instead, configure will generate it for
systems that use configure, and we always copy SDL_config.h.default to
SDL_config.h before generating a snapshot or release archive.
Also fixed a couple of uninstall issues.

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.

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

apparently __i386__ is insufficient for Suns C Workshop compilers...

I think it wouldn't be a bad idea to add __i386 to the SDL_byteorder.h

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...
