- 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.
Integrated most of the NetBSD and DragonFly patches at:
ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/packages/pkgsrc/devel/SDL/patches/
Thanks to Thomas Klausner for defailed information on the patches
fixed bugs 159 and 160:
+ added threaded timers support
! fixed restoring sdl window focus (AV in windows message handler)
! disabled forgotten cdrom and joystick in config file.
* disabled minimizing sdl window while loosing focus.
PocketPC does not have a task bar, so it is an inconvenient and unusual
behaviour for PPC users.
+ added WIN_Paint handler for GAPI
! fixed loosing focus while using GAPI videi driver
+ added TestTimer project
* removed unnecessary macros (ENABLE_WINDIB ...) from projects

I managed to get a first implementation of it, which I tested for "simple" use

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: [SDL] Updated Mac patch
Updated the previous Mac patch to disable Carbon by default.
Also "fixed" the SDL.spec again, so that it builds on Darwin.
http://www.algonet.se/~afb/SDL-1.2.9-mac.patch
Also applied fine to SDL12 CVS, when I tried it.
