Subject: Re: Updated DirectFB driver for SDL1.3
attached is a patch which brings the directfb driver in line with
current svn. In addition:
* driver now is in line with the structure of the X11 driver.
This adds a couple of files.
* driver now supports relative mouse movements
Using the following sequence
SDL_Init(..:)
SDL_CreateWindow(..., SDL_WINDOW_OPENGL)
SDL_DestroyWindow
SDL_CreateWindow(..., SDL_WINDOW_OPENGL)
SDL will crash in X11_GL_GetVisual. This is due to the fact that
during SDL_DestroyWindow X11_GL_Shutdown was called because the last window
has been closed.
On the next call to SDL_CreateWindow the library is still loaded and only the
memory is reinitialized. Function pointers such as gl_data->glXChooseVisual
will not be reinitialized.
Consequently, SDL will crash due to a NULL pointer access.
The attached patch corrects the behaviour.

Subject: Updated DirectFB driver for SDL1.3
please find attached a patch for an updated directfb driver for SDL1.3.
It does now
- properly supported the new input api.
- send unicode text events
- support directfb windows
- support multiple screens
- support hardware YUV scaling for the first YUV texture created.
- support hardware scaling for textures.
- properly interpret streaming access
- support software opengl if one manages to install the mesa directfb
driver (broken/not broken in mesa svn)
Within bugzilla (http://bugzilla.libsdl.org/show_bug.cgi?id=603) there
is another patch which fixes a crash due to GL context creation.
Kind regards,

I was going to add the current window to the OpenGL context info, but that
doesn't fix the case where you set the current context to NULL and then set
the current context to the same window it had before.
This also doesn't take into account changes to the window that might affect
the context, such as viewport changing or fullscreen/windowed mode changing.
Any ideas?

Subject: SDL 1.3 Xcode projects
Here are my promised updates to the Xcode projects. They work as far
as I'm using them, but I have not tested them thoroughly, and there
may still be some cruft left. In particular, I haven't checked whether
the frameworks still work on older versions of Mac OS X (are we still
targeting 10.2?), and whether Altivec/SSE optimizations are properly
done. Of note: I incremented the framework version to B to enable SDL
1.2 and 1.3 to coexist in a single framework.
Let me know if you see any problems.
Greetings
Christian
