Date: Tue, 11 May 2004 22:05:32 -0400 From: Bob Ippolito Subject: [SDL] SDL_QuartzWM patches I've sent in two small patches to SDL_QuartzWM directly to Sam over the past few months (well, I think I sent both anyway) and neither of them have been implemented. I didn't receive a response, so I'm sure he was just busy and/or they got lost, so I decided to sign up to the list and post them here. This patch rolls both of them together: - Mouse cursor becomes visible if hidden when it moves outside of the game window. If you want it to stay invisible you should warp it because if it's not warped a user might click some random other application! Commercial games behave in this way (or at least Warcraft III does, which is the only one that uses a custom mouse cursor and no warping that I've played in recent memory). - Right mouse button emulation is changed from Command-Click to Control-Click, which is how OS X behaves. Consider copyright assigned to whomever needs it under whichever license it needs to be under.. yadda yadda yadda.

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)
