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.

.SH "NAME"
SDL_AddTimer\- Add a timer which will call a callback after the specified number of milliseconds has elapsed\&.
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.PP
\fB#include "SDL\&.h"
.sp
\fBSDL_TimerID \fBSDL_AddTimer\fP\fR(\fBUint32 interval, SDL_NewTimerCallback callback, void *param\fR);

.PP
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
Adds a callback function to be run after the specified number of milliseconds has elapsed\&. The callback function is passed the current timer interval and the user supplied parameter from the \fBSDL_AddTimer\fP call and returns the next timer interval\&. If the returned value from the callback is the same as the one passed in, the periodic alarm continues, otherwise a new alarm is scheduled\&.
.PP
To cancel a currently running timer call \fISDL_RemoveTimer\fR with the timer ID returned from \fBSDL_AddTimer\fP\&.
.PP
The timer callback function may run in a different thread than your main program, and so shouldn\&'t call any functions from within itself\&. You may always call \fISDL_PushEvent\fR, however\&.
.PP
The granularity of the timer is platform-dependent, but you should count on it being at least 10 ms as this is the most common number\&. This means that if you request a 16 ms timer, your callback will run approximately 20 ms later on an unloaded system\&. If you wanted to set a flag signaling a frame update at 30 frames per second (every 33 ms), you might set a timer for 30 ms (see example below)\&. If you use this function, you need to pass \fBSDL_INIT_TIMER\fP to \fISDL_Init\fR\&.
.SH "RETURN VALUE"
.PP
Returns an ID value for the added timer or \fBNULL\fR if there was an error\&.
