te: Thu, 17 Apr 2003 11:25:26 -0700 From: "Jim" Subject: [SDL] Frame buffer patches... Would seem that GCC 3.2.2 promotes all signed values to unsigned if any single vlaue is unsigned in an expression... for instance when calculating an elo touch position....evertyhign is an (int) except for cach_vinfo.xres which is unsigned. THerefore if y ou reverse the SDL_ELO_MIN_X and SDL_ELO_MAX_X values the resulging negative value pegs the expression to it's max. Attached it the accumu lated patch to typecast the unsigned values to (int) - *dx = (cache_vinfo.xres - (cache_vinfo.xres * (input_x - ELO_MIN_X)) / width); + *dx = ((int)cache_vinfo.xres - ((int)cache_vinfo.xres * (input_x - ELO_MIN_X)) / width); and also to provide quite failure to operations which have the screen currently locked... The touch screen I'm using the original values were exactly opposite of any position I touched on the screen - evaluating the math the expr ession SHOULD have handled reversing the min and max values - and after casting the unsigned .xres and .yres to a signed int - worked well. ..

This is the porting of 1.2.0 version of SDL (the latest stable one)
to AmigaOS/68k.

All the bugs known of the past version have been corrected. And I've
added all the new SDL features.

This version of SDL needs Cybergraphx V3 (r69+) or CyberGraphX V4
and AHI v3+. Probably it works also with P96 or CGXAga, but it's 
untested.

This version is available as linked library for SAS/C and GCC, only 68k this 
time, a powerup (ppcemu compatible) and a morphos version will be ready quite 
soon (i hope).

Implemented:

- 8/16/24/32bit video modes, both fullscreen and windowed.
- Hardware surfaces.
- CGX blitting acceleration.
- CGX colorkey blitting acceleration.
- AHI audio (8/16 bit, with any audio format), always uses unit 0 for now.
- Thread support (maybe not 100% compatible with other implementations)
- Semaphores 
- Window resizing and backdrop windows (NEW)
- Joystick/Joypad support.

To do:

- CDRom audio playing support
- OpenGL (A guy was working on it but I've lost his tracks :( )

The SAS/C library is distributed with debug info attached, to strip debug info 
simply add STRIPDEBUG argument to the linker.

NOTE: SDL includes debug output using kprintf, to disable it add to your 
project a function like this:

void kprintf(char *a,...)
{
}

Otherwise you can redirect the debug to a console window with sushi, sashimi or
similar tools (the default output is the internal serial port). 

For info, support, bugfix and other feel free to mail me:
