Fixed bug #113:

Subject: [SDL] Window manager does not show SDL window titles
Hello,
I have an issue with SDL-using applications and the sawfish window manager.
The problem is that SDL windows do not show the window caption. My gnome
panel *does* show the window name, but the actual sawfish window frame
shows no caption at all. All other non-SDL applications that I use work
fine.
I tried a couple other window managers, and they *were* able to show the
SDL window captions correctly. Though there many be other WMs that can't.
I believe the problem is that SDL is using the UTF8_STRING type for the
window's WM_NAME and WM_ICON properties. In fact, WM_NAME and WM_ICON are
supposed to set to a TEXT type, usually STRING (ISO 8859-1).
The property names _NET_WM_NAME and _NET_WM_ICON_NAME should be used to
store the UTF8_STRING versions of the window title and icon name.
You can see the properties I refer to with a command like this:
xprop|grep -e "WM.*NAME"
Please note the freedesktop.org standard:
http://standards.freedesktop.org/wm-spec/wm-spec-1.3.html#id2506954
This page talks a little bit about the history of these properties. Just
search down the page for "WM_NAME".

Please let me know if I can be of any assistance in resolving this issue.
Thanks,
Eric Mangold

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). For info, support, bugfix and other feel free to mail me: Gabriele Greco (gabriele.greco@aruba.it) You can find also a small SDL Amiga page at: http://ggreco.interfree.it/sdl.html
