Date: Sat, 16 Aug 2003 16:22:56 +0300 From: "Mike Gorchak" Subject: Package building for QNX6 I'm just completed the package description file for QNX6 - qpg, it is like a\ .spec files for Linux. Please place SDL.qpg.in file in the root of the proj\ ect, where .spec file is placed. And sdl12qpg.diff - just adding the SDL.qpg\ .in. The same for the SDL_image. I'm planning to add .qpg files creation for\ all SDL* projects. As for shared library building for QNX6. It is very hard to improve the exis\ ting libtool code to support QNX shared libraries. Much easyiest is to remov\ e libtool.m4 code from the acinclude.m4 for those persons, who building shar\ ed libraries for QNX6. I'm described all what they need to do with .so under\ QNX6 in the README.QNX file. And 90% of people used the precompiled librari\ es, so I think it is not big problem :)

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).
