Date: Thu, 05 Feb 2009 18:07:35 +0100 From: Stefan Klug 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 Stefan

To compile and install SDL:

    1.  Run './configure; make; make install'

        If you are compiling for Windows using gcc, read the FAQ at:
        http://www.libsdl.org/faq.php?action=listentries&category=4#42

        If you are compiling using Visual C++ on Win32, you should read
        the file VisualC.html

    2.  Look at the example programs in ./test, and check out the HTML
        documentation in ./docs to see how to use the SDL library.

    3.  Join the SDL developer mailing list by sending E-mail to
    	sdl-request@libsdl.org
        and put "subscribe" in the subject of the message.

        Or alternatively you can use the web interface:
            http://www.libsdl.org/mailing-list.php

That's it!
