Date: Thu, 24 Apr 2003 15:13:47 -0400 From: Shawn Kirst Subject: SDL-1.2.5 patch to add ARB_multisample support Attached is a patch I have written for SDL-1.2.5 that adds ARB_multisample support. I only have the X11 and Win32 video patched. The Win32 patch also adds support for WGL_ARB_pixel_format, as it was required for getting a multisample capable pixel format. No additional GL header files are required to compile on either platform (though you need an up-to-date glx.h for X11). Requesting a multisample pixel format is made possible using SDL_GL_SetAttribute with the two new SDL_GLattr's I've added (SDL_GL_SAMPLE_BUFFERS and SDL_GL_SAMPLES). I've been using SDL in my projects for quite a while now, so I am happy to contribute back to the project. Now you can have and control FSAA in your SDL/GL apps at the application level!

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)
