Date: Sat, 2 Aug 2003 16:22:51 +0300 From: "Mike Gorchak" Subject: New patches for QNX6 Here my patches for the SDL/QNX: QNXSDL.diff - diff to non-QNX related sources: - updated BUGS file, I think QNX6 is now will be officially supported - configure.in - added shared library support for QNX, and removed dependency between the ALSA and QNX6. - SDL_audio.c - added QNX NTO sound bootstrap insted of ALSA's. - SDL_sysaudio.h - the same. - SDL_nto_audio.c - the same. - SDL_video.c - right now, QNX doesn't offer any method to obtain pointers to the OpenGL functions by function name, so they must be hardcoded in library, otherwise OpenGL will not be supported. - testsprite.c - fixed: do not draw vertical red line if we are in non-double-buffered mode. sdlqnxph.tar.gz - archive of the ./src/video/photon/* . Too many changes in code to make diffs :) : + Added stub for support hide/unhide window event + Added full YUV overlays support. + Added window maximize support. + Added mouse wheel events. + Added support for some specific key codes in Unicode mode (like ESC). + Added more checks to the all memory allocation code. + Added SDL_DOUBLEBUF support in all fullscreen modes. + Added fallback to window mode, if desired fullscreen mode is not supported. + Added stub support for the GL_LoadLibrary and GL_GetProcAddress functions. + Added resizable window support without caption. ! Fixed bug in the Ph_EV_EXPOSE event handler, when rectangles to update is 0 and when width or height of the rectangle is 0. ! Fixed bug in the event handler code. Events has not been passed to the window widget handler. ! Fixed codes for Win keys (Super/Hyper/Menu). ! Fixed memory leak, when deallocation palette. ! Fixed palette emulation code bugs. ! Fixed fullscreen and hwsurface handling. ! Fixed CLOSE button bug. First event was passed to the handler, but second terminated the application. Now all events passed to the application correctly. - Removed all printfs in code, now SDL_SetError used instead of them. - Disabled ToggleFullScreen function. README.QNX - updated README.QNX file. Added much more issues.

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)
