Date: Sun, 26 Feb 2006 11:25:09 +0900 From: Hayashi Naoyuki Subject: Re: [SDL] CVS stable again, please update SDL ports Some problems are caused on Tru64 UNIX. If applying SDL12-osf1.path, these problems are fixed. 1. configure-script say "recursive mutexes... no" and "pthread semaphores... no". checking for pthreads... yes checking for recursive mutexes... no checking for pthread semaphores... no This is because it compiled without pthread_cflags and pthread_lib when checking recursive mutexes and pthread semaphores. 2. Compiling src/audio/mme/SDL_mmeaudio.c fails. cc: Severe: ./src/audio/mme/SDL_mmeaudio.c, line 25: Cannot find file <mme_api.h> specified in #include directive. (noinclfilef) #include <mme_api.h> -^ This is because BUILD_CFLAGS is wrong. 3. Compiling src/cdrom/osf/SDL_syscdrom.c fails. cc: Warning: ./src/cdrom/osf/SDL_syscdrom.c, line 176: Too few actual parameters in the invocation of the macro "SDL_stack_alloc". (toofewactuals) cdpath = SDL_stack_alloc(len); ------------------------------------^ cc: Error: ./src/cdrom/osf/SDL_syscdrom.c, line 176: Invalid expression. (badexpr) cdpath = SDL_stack_alloc(len); -----------------^ SDL_stack_alloc is defined in include/SDL_stdinc.h. #define SDL_stack_alloc(type, count) (type*)alloca(sizeof(type)*count) 4. Linking fails if running configure with --enable-x11-shared=yes. /usr/ccs/bin/ld: Warning: Unresolved: p_XData32 5. Compiling src/video/x11/SDL_x11dyn.c fails if running configure with --enable-x11-shared=no. cc: Error: ./src/video/x11/SDL_x11sym.h, line 149: In this statement, "_SmtBufferOverflow" is not declared.

12 \fBSDL_SemWaitTimeout()\fP is a varient of \fISDL_SemWait\fR with a maximum timeout value\&. If the value of the semaphore pointed to by \fBsem\fR is positive (greater than zero) it will atomically decrement the semaphore value and return 0, otherwise it will wait up to \fBtimeout\fR milliseconds trying to lock the semaphore\&. This function is to be avoided if possible since on some platforms it is implemented by polling the semaphore every millisecond in a busy loop\&.

14 After \fBSDL_SemWaitTimeout()\fP is successful, the semaphore can be released and its count atomically incremented by a successful call to \fISDL_SemPost\fR\&.
