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.
Regards
Stefan
#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.
Betreff: [SDL] [PATCH] Make static variables const
Datum: Tue, 19 May 2009 19:45:37 +0200
Hi,
this is a set of simple changes which make some of SDL's internal static
arrays constant. The purpose is to shrink the number of write-able
static bytes and thus increase the number of memory pages shared between
SDL applications.
The patch set is against trunk@4513. Each of the attached patch files is
specific to a sub-system. The set is completed by a second mail, because
of the list's 40 KiB limit.
The files readelf-r4513.txt and readelf-const-patch.txt where made by
calling 'readelf -S libSDL.so'. They show the difference in ELF sections
without and with the patch. Some numbers measured on my x86-64:

0000000000002e88 0000000000000000 WA 0 0 32
The size of the write-able data section decreased considerably. Some
entries became const-after-relocation, while most of its content went
straight into the read-only data section.

There is a bug in OpenGL 3.x context creation code.
Function glXGetProcAddress is used directly where it should be:
_this->gl_data->glXGetProcAddress. I have attached patch which fixes this on
x11 and win32. Thanks.
From: Luke Benstead
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.

SDL_SetVideoMode(0,0,0,flags) used to be valid in SDL 1.2
Attached is a patch to replicate this behaviour in SDL 1.3

Subject: [SDL] SDL 1.3 WinCE backend
as promised, I've started to work on the WinCE backend of SDL 1.3
I've modified the win32 video backend and the gdi renderer, to work
properly in WinCE.
The results till now are great, but there is still some work to do.
Attached are two patches with my changes.
I would be happy if someone could review and propably commit them.
The first one (configure.in.patch) should be straight forward without
any side effects.
The second one does the necessary changes to the win32 backend. I was
really unhappy to start slicing this shiny new backend with
#ifdef/#endif but I saw no other option.
The most problematic issues are:
- WinCe has no GetDIBits, so its practically impossible to fill a
BITMAPINFO with correct values. I therefore removed the bmi member from
the GDI_RenderData in SDL_gdirender.c to prevent usage of a not or not
properly initialized bmi.
- In SDL_win32window.c I exchanged some ASCII function by their general
counterparts, (In CE only the Unicode versions are available). I don't
know if this has a negative effect when running in win32
Cheers

Subject: [SDL] Possible bug, paused audio playing garbage
On my WinCE device a paused audio device plays random garbage.
This might also be the issue in the thread "sound cracks with SDL_mixer
and AUDIO_S16LSB"
I don't have that much knowledge of the SDL audio part, but the attached
patch fixes it for me, and collapses two redundant ifs.
I'm not sure if this is the correct way to fix this.
Shouldn't the complete stream conversion part of the RunAudio loop be
dependent on the paused property of the device? (not only the call to
(*fill)(udata, istream, istream_len).
Anyways. Would be great if the patch or a fix could find its way to SVN ;-)

Subject: New QNX patches
In photon.tar.gz there are new files to be placed into ./src/video/photon/
directory.
qnx3.diff - new patches for QNX support. Since I've found a lot of bugs in
the new GF QNX Graphics Framework and I'm suspended development for GF
driver until already found bugs will be fixed and switched to Photon driver
implementation.
sdl.diff - I've found that renderer creation result has not been checked and
SDL shows error like: "there is no current renderer", now SDL will show
correct error which was set be renderer.
