Subject: [SDL] Mac OS X Video Drivers [patch]
I've updated/added the Carbon and X11 video drivers
to the Mac OS X port of SDL 1.2 (the CVS version),
and made the Cocoa driver and runtime *optional*.
The default is still Cocoa, and the "Quartz" driver.
But you can now also use "toolbox" for Carbon, and
"x11" for running with Apple's (or other) X11 server:
export SDL_VIDEODRIVER=x11
export SDL_VIDEO_GL_DRIVER=/usr/X11R6/lib/libGL.dylib
It also checks if the frameworks are available, by a:
#include <Carbon/Carbon.h> or #import <Cocoa/Cocoa.h>
(this should make it configure on plain Darwin as well?)
Here are the new configure targets:
--enable-video-cocoa use Cocoa/Quartz video driver default=yes
--enable-video-carbon use Carbon/QuickDraw video driver default=yes
--enable-video-x11 use X11 video driver default=no
./configure --enable-video-cocoa --enable-video-carbon
--enable-video-x11 \
--x-includes=/usr/X11R6/include --x-libraries=/usr/X11R6/lib
The Carbon version is just an updated version of the old
SDL driver for Mac OS 9, and could probably be improved...
(but it does work, including the Carbon version of SDLmain)
If you disable cocoa, you can run with -framework Carbon only,
and the C version of SDL_main.c. And if you disable carbon too,
you can still use the X11 version which doesn't require SDLmain.
I updated the DrawSprocket version, but did not include it.
(no blitters or VRAM GWorlds etc. available on OS X anyway)
Besides for Mac OS 9, I don't think there's any use for it ?
And note that any performance on Mac OS X equals OpenGL anyway...
You can get "fair" software SDL results on captured CG displays,
but for decent frame rates you need to be using GL for rendering.
Finally, here is the patch itself:

--anders
PS. It says "video", but as usual it applies to mouse/keyboard too.

Subject: [SDL] Updated Mac patch
Updated the previous Mac patch to disable Carbon by default.
Also "fixed" the SDL.spec again, so that it builds on Darwin.
http://www.algonet.se/~afb/SDL-1.2.9-mac.patch
Also applied fine to SDL12 CVS, when I tried it.

============================================================================== Using the Simple DirectMedia Layer with MacOS 7,8,9 on PPC ============================================================================== These instructions are for people using the Apple MPW environment: http://developer.apple.com/tools/mpw-tools/ CodeWarrior projects are available in the CWprojects directory. ============================================================================== I. Building the Simple DirectMedia Layer libraries: (This step isn't necessary if you have the SDL binary distribution) First, unpack the MPWmake.sea.hqx archive and move SDL.make into the SDL directory. Start MPW Set the current directory within MPW to the SDL toplevel directory. Build "SDL" (Type Command-B and enter "SDL" in the dialog) If everything compiles successfully, you now have the PPC libraries "SDL" and "SDLmain.o" in the 'lib' subdirectory. ============================================================================== II. Building the Simple DirectMedia Layer test programs: First, unpack the MPWmake.sea.hqx archive, move the new rsrc directory to the main SDL directory, and move the makefiles in the new test subdirectory to the SDL 'test' subdirectory. Start MPW Set the current directory within MPW to the SDL 'test' subdirectory. Build the programs that have an associated MPW makefile (file ending with .make), including "testwin", "testalpha", and "graywin". Copy the SDL library file into the test directory, and run! ============================================================================== III. Building the Simple DirectMedia Layer demo programs: Copy one of the test program Makefiles to the demo directory and modify it to match the sources in the demo. ============================================================================== IV. Enjoy! :) If you have a project you'd like me to know about, or want to ask questions, go ahead and join the SDL developer's mailing list by sending e-mail to: sdl-request@libsdl.org and put "subscribe" into the subject of the message. Or alternatively you can use the web interface: http://www.libsdl.org/mailman/listinfo/sdl ==============================================================================
