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.

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.

Subject: About QNX support in SDL 1.3
Right now I'm working on QNX SDL 1.3 drivers implementation and looks like a
lot of code must be completely reworked. But I'm ready for it :) Also I want
to add QNX Graphics Framework SDL driver, which is fullscreen graphics
framework, with support of hardware accelerated OpenGL ES implementations.
This Graphics Framework (called GF in QNX) could also use QNX Photon (window
manager GUI) as window manager.
In the attachment initial patch for QNX support in SDL 1.3
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.

Subject: SDL1.3 DirectFB patches
The attached contains the following directfb changes:
- Dynamic loading of libdirectfb.so. This may to turned off as well in configure
- 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",
i.e. over the network. As such, it natively redirects sound where
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.
