Hi,
I have prepared a set of patches to readd WindowsCE support to SDL 1.3.
I've created a new GAPI/Rawframebuffer and a DirectDraw renderer.
Both renderers are work in progress and there are several unimplemented
cases. (Notably
RenderLine/RenderPoint/RenderFill/QueryTexturePixels/UpdateTexture and
texture blending )
Nevertheless I am successfully using these renderers together with the
SDL software renderer. (On most devices the SDL software renderer will
be much faster as there are only badly optimized vendor drivers available)
I send these patches now in this unpolished state because there seems to
be some interest in win ce and someone has to start supporting SDL 1.3
Now on to the patches:
wince_events_window_fixes.patch
fixes some wince incompatibilities and adds fullscreen support via
SHFullScreen. NOTE: This patch shouldn't have any side effects on
Windows, but I have NOT tested it on Windows, so please double-check.
This patch doesn't dependent on the following ones.
wince_renderers_system.patch
This patch does all necessary modifications to the SDL system.
- it adds the renderers to the configure system
- it adds the renderers to win32video
SDL_ceddrawrender.c
SDL_ceddrawrender.h
SDL_gapirender_c.h
SDL_gapirender.c
SDL_gapirender.h
these files add the new render drivers and should be placed in
src/video/win32
Some notes to people who want to test this:
- I have only compiled sdl with ming32ce, so the VisualC files are not
up to date
- As mingw32ce has no ddraw.h this file must be taken from the MS SDK
and modified to work with gcc
- I had to modify line 2611 in configure.in to
EXTRA_LDFLAGS="$EXTRA_LDFLAGS -lcoredll -lcommctrl -lmmtimer
-Wl,--image-base -Wl,0x10000"
otherwise GetCPinfo wouldn't link. If someone knows whats causing this
I'd be happy to hear about it.
It would be great if these patches could make their way into SVN as this
would make collaboration much much easier.
I'm out of office for the next week and therefore will be unavailable
via email.
Regards
Stefan

SDL on DirectFB Supports: - Hardware YUV overlays - OpenGL - software only - 2D/3D accelerations (depends on directfb driver) - multiple displays - windows What you need: DirectFB 1.0.1, 1.2.x, 1.3.0 Kernel-Framebuffer support: required: vesafb, radeonfb .... Mesa 7.0.x - optional for OpenGL /etc/directfbrc This file should contain the following lines to make your joystick work and avoid crashes: ------------------------ disable-module=joystick disable-module=cle266 disable-module=cyber5k no-linux-input-grab ------------------------ To disable to use x11 backend when DISPLAY variable is found use export SDL_DIRECTFB_X11_CHECK=0 To disable the use of linux input devices, i.e. multimice/multikeyboard support, use export SDL_DIRECTFB_LINUX_INPUT=0 To use hardware accelerated YUV-overlays for YUV-textures, use: export SDL_DIRECTFB_YUV_DIRECT=1 This is disabled by default. It will only support one YUV texture, namely the first. Every other YUV texture will be rendered in software. In addition, you may use (directfb-1.2.x) export SDL_DIRECTFB_YUV_UNDERLAY=1 to make the YUV texture an underlay. This will make the cursor to be shown. Simple Window Manager ===================== The driver has support for a very, very basic window manager you may want to use when runnning with "wm=default". Use export SDL_DIRECTFB_WM=1 to enable basic window borders. In order to have the window title rendered, you need to have the following font installed: /usr/share/fonts/truetype/freefont/FreeSans.ttf OPENGL Support ============== As of this writing 20070810 you need to pull Mesa from git and do the following: ------------------------ cd mesa make linux-directfb make echo Installing - please enter sudo pw. sudo make install INSTALL_DIR=/usr/local/dfb_GL cd src/mesa/drivers/directfb make sudo make install INSTALL_DIR=/usr/local/dfb_GL ------------------------ To run the SDL - testprograms: export SDL_VIDEODRIVER=directfb export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/dfb_GL/lib export LD_PRELOAD=/usr/local/dfb_GL/libGL.so.7 ./testgl
