From: Hibernatus Subject: [SDL] BUG: changing video mode in opengl + windows In WIN_GL_SetupWindow (SDL12/src/video/wincommon/SDL_wingl.c) you call WIN_GL_ResetWindow when SetPixelFormat fails. WIN_GL_ResetWindow cannot properly work in its current state, because there are several things to update once you've created a new window. At least DirectInput doesn't work anymore here (which is somewhat annoying for the player :). I think you can simply remove that function. Many games don't try to recover from that exception, that's why the newest ATI drivers emulate 16 bpp display in 32 bpp mode so the error never occurs (but the games may run much slower). Having SDL_SetVideoMode return NULL would be better than actually setting the video mode and losing focus, directinput and maybe directsound too. It also made my previous drivers crash (when switching from 32 bpp windowed to 16 bpp fullscreen).
Simple DirectMedia Layer
(SDL)
Version 1.2
---
http://www.libsdl.org/
This is the Simple DirectMedia Layer, a general API that provides low
level access to audio, keyboard, mouse, joystick, 3D hardware via OpenGL,
and 2D framebuffer across multiple platforms.
SDL is written in C, but works with C++ natively, and has bindings to
several other languages, including Ada, C#, Eiffel, Java, Lua, ML,
Objective C, Perl, PHP, Pike, Python, and Ruby.
The current version supports Linux, Windows, BeOS, MacOS, MacOS X,
FreeBSD, OpenBSD, BSD/OS, Solaris, IRIX, and QNX. The code contains
support for Windows CE, AmigaOS, Dreamcast, Atari, NetBSD, AIX, OSF/Tru64,
RISC OS, and SymbianOS, but these are not officially supported.
This library is distributed under GNU LGPL version 2, which can be
found in the file "COPYING". This license allows you to use SDL
freely in commercial programs as long as you link with the dynamic
library.
The best way to learn how to use SDL is to check out the header files in
the "include" subdirectory and the programs in the "test" subdirectory.
The header files and test programs are well commented and always up to date.
More documentation is available in HTML format in "./docs/index.html"
The test programs in the "test" subdirectory are in the public domain.
