Someone asked in IRC whether they should free the surface from SDL_GetWindowSurface. The doc comment is a bit vague so i checked the code and revised the comment.

The Visual Studio 2010 project files have hard-coded relative paths which
prevent them from doing side-by-side 32-bit and 64-bit builds.
I have attached a patch that appears to fix this problem.
The windows function SDL_SYS_HapticOpenFromJoystick fails because DIDEVICEINSTANCE joy_instance does not have its dwSize field initialized. The attached patch includes the fix along with a fix for two similar problems.

The test application called "testsdl" inside the iOS project file crashes at
launch time.
The fix is trivial, removing the reference to MainWindow (as there are no Nibs
included) from the Info.plist file.
Vittorio G. to Eric, Sam
Actually this is much simpler than i thought, I just had to specify a
class method to get the delegate name and then the category can
override that method!
I've attached the patch that enables this features: in my code i could
remove my custom main() and simply add
@implementation SDLUIKitDelegate (customDelegate)
+(NSString *)getAppDelegateClassName {
return @"HedgewarsAppDelegate";
}
@end
I tested it and with the sdl demos it loads the normal
SDLUIKitDelegate, while in my code it loads my HedgewarsAppDelegate!

On X11, SDL 1.3 does not generate a mouse wheel event. Instead, button
down/buttton up events are generated by SDL. After looking at the code in
SDL_x11events.c, I assume this is due to the fact that X11 does not have a
dedicated mouse wheel event.
I did a little research on the behavior of mouse wheel events on X11 systems.
Apparently, mouse wheel events generate a button down/button up event with the
same time, i.e. with exact same timestamp.
Attached you can find my changes to SDL_x11events.c, which generates SDL mouse
wheel events for those button down events that have a button release event
immediately following it (for the same button, and with the same timestamp).
I did have to make an assumption: As standard X11 implementations know only 5
buttons, I have mapped Button4 to "wheel up" (i.e. +1), and Button5 to "wheel
down" (i.e. -1).
Note that if you include this patch, no SDL button down/up events will be
generated on X11 platforms for mouse wheel events (which is probably a
significant change for those that have programmed their code to work with
them).
- Always use a UIViewController, even if window is not resizable.
- Let non-resizable windows still flip over, so user can hold device with the
correct orientation, but upside down, if that's more comfortable.
- Don't set the UIScreen unless we're forced to, as it resets some state.
- Minor correction with conventions for -[self init] tapdance.

There's also a patch to adapt one test for the nds, and that adds several
makefiles to compile these tests. Whenever you apply it, could you completely
remove the test/nds-test-progs/sprite and test/nds-test-progs/sprite2
directories ?

I've cleaned up a few bugs in the nds code. A few more tests now pass.
There's still a few things to do, but overall I think it's starting to be in a
good shape.
The patch also includes a bug fix for SDL_ConvertSurfaceFormat() (gcc warning).
Implemented thread priority as the 'nice' value on Linux. High priority threads require root permissions (you shouldn't give your game root permissions though!)
