From: "Mattias Engdeg�rd" <f91-men@nada.kth.se> To: slouken@devolution.com Subject: Re: [SDL] Question about SDL_FillRect() I benchmarked with and without clipping UpdateRects and was unable to find any difference on my moderately slow machine. Anyway, I haven't added clipping in this patch, but fixed a couple of bugs and generally cleaned up some of the X11 image code. Most importantly, UpdateRects now checks for both zero height and width. Also, I eliminated the entire code to byteswap X11 images since X11 can do that automatically if you ask it nicely :-)

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)
