Date: Tue, 6 Jan 2004 12:42:19 +0100 From: Max Horn Subject: SDL_HasAltiVec; BUGS file the attached patch adds SDL_HasAltiVec to SDL CVS. Note that at this point, this only works on MacOSX (and maybe darwin). I don't know how to properly add a test for e.g. Linux/PPC at this point. I found an email which might help in doing so: http://zebra.fh-weingarten.de/~maxi/html/mplayer-dev-eng/2003-01msg00783.html However, since I have no way to test on a non-OSX PowerPC system, I am not comfortable blindly adding such code... I just hope that if somebody from the Linux/PPC (or FreeBSD/PPC, or whatever) community notices this, they'll jump up and provide a patch for us ;-)

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)
