Date: Sat, 15 Jan 2005 02:01:51 +0000 (UTC) From: jimrandomh Subject: [SDL] Re: Modifier keys pressed during initialization stick I wrote a simple test program which initializes SDL, prints the SDL version number, then prints any keydown and keyup events with their modifiers. (Source code below). Compilation was done using Visual Studio 6, release mode. My test sequence was: Start a command prompt. Type the name of the test program. shift down enter down (program starts) Wait for window to appear enter up shift up spacebar down spacebar up Under Windows 98, the output was correct: SDL 1.2.8 left shift down shift-return down shift-return up left shift up space down space up Under Windows 2000 and under Windows XP, the output was: SDL 1.2.8 shift-space down shift-space up Since shift was not held at the time space was pressed, this is incorrect. Similar results were observed with launching in different ways (including double-clicking in Windows Explorer), so it does not depend on the launching terminal.

Wish list for the 1.3 development branch:

 * Use /etc/fb.modes, if available, like GGI does
 * Add mousewheel events (new unified event architecture?)
 * DirectInput joystick support needs to be implemented
 * Be able to enumerate and select available audio and video drivers
 * Fullscreen video mode support for MacOS X
 * Explicit vertical retrace wait (maybe separate from SDL_Flip?)
 * Shaped windows, windows without borders
 * Multiple windows, multiple display support
 * SDL_INIT_EVENTTHREAD on Windows and MacOS?
 * Add a timestamp to events
 * Use RDTSC for timer resolution on x86 hardware
 * Add audio input API
 * Add hardware accelerated scaled blit
 * Add hardware accelerated alpha blits
 * Redesign blitting architecture to allow blit plugins

In the jump from 1.2 to 1.3, we should change the SDL_Rect members to
int and evaluate all the rest of the datatypes.  This is the only place
we should do it though, since the 1.2 series should not break binary
compatibility in this way.

Requests:
 * PCM and CDROM volume control (deprecated, but possible)
