Subject: [SDL] SDL for Windows CE: a few GAPI patches
Hi *!
I've just ported a POWDER roguelike ( http://www.zincland.com/powder/ ) to
Windows CE (PDAs, Windows Mobile/Pocket PC). To do that, I had to get libsdl
working. Thanks for the awesome project files, it built without a hitch.
Nevertheless, I've found quite a few bugs in Windows CE (GAPI) SDL
implementation, which I've solved and now present as a serie of patches.
I'll try carefully annotate them. Please annotate them so I can work
toward accepting
them into the main source tree since without them SDL isn't really working on
Windows CE (I wonder why nobody fixed them before, btw: why isn't SDL popular as
a way to develop Windows CE games? Where are no ports?)
These changes can't be considered flawless, but they can be considered working
because I've yet to hear complains about things I fixed and POWDER build for
Windows CE is now considered stable.
Note: my comments start with !!, delete them before applying.

!! That's the trickest part, hence the long comment.
!! GAPI would really support only 320x240 or 640x480 mode, if application
!! requested the different screen size (as POWDER did, wishing
256x192), then SDL
!! is going to grab the first mode that fits the requested, and pad the screen
!! with black bars (as they do with wide-screen films).
!! It would also get, say, 240x320 mode, and to turn it into 256x192 it would
!! need to rotate mouse clicks.
!! It worked, but one bug slipped through: it would receive mouse clicks
!! unpadded, then rotate them, and then pad the black bars. The
problem is: rotate
!! is done by GAPI driver while padding is done by SDL core. SDL core
doesn't know
!! anything about rotating, so it would pad one of dimensions incorrectly.
I understand that some of my claims (or code) might seem unbacked, but you can
always grab the POWDER binary, compile your own libsdl with one or more of
those fixes turned off, and see how weird it would misbehave. I can even supply
you with those custom builds of libsdl if you don't want to set up the build
environment for windows ce, you'll just need a PDA or a smartphone with it.
I plan to take care of SDL on Windows CE as long as I maintain the POWDER port.
POWDER is good for that because it:
Employs both padded (with centered image, black bars) and unpadded
(image occupies full screen) graphics; initializes video more than
once; uses both 320x240 and 640x480 video; uses both stylus and
buttons.
There's still a list of unresolved issues which I'm planning to fix:
1) Arrow buttons on PDA return weird scancodes compared to PC, this
caused the game to misbehave before I've fixed that. You can see it on
those diagrams:
http://wrar.name/upload/powder-htc.png
http://wrar.name/upload/powder-pda.png
2) SDL (or underlying windows) doesn't care to rotate arrow presses
when we're in a low-res GAPI mode, but it will rotate them in VGA mode
(because of different screen orientations, the same arrow buttons can
suddently mean different directions). Solution: we should stick to
GAPI user orientation (the orientation the program supposedly wants)
and rotate the keys on our own.

Simple DirectMedia Layer (SDL) Version 1.2 --- http://www.libsdl.org/ This is the Simple DirectMedia Layer, a general API that provides low level access to audio, keyboard, mouse, joystick, 3D hardware via OpenGL, and 2D framebuffer across multiple platforms. The current version supports Linux, Windows CE/95/98/ME/XP/Vista, BeOS, MacOS Classic, Mac OS X, FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD, BSD/OS, Solaris, IRIX, and QNX. The code contains support for Dreamcast, Atari, AIX, OSF/Tru64, RISC OS, SymbianOS, Nintendo DS, and OS/2, but these are not officially supported. SDL is written in C, but works with C++ natively, and has bindings to several other languages, including Ada, C#, Eiffel, Erlang, Euphoria, Guile, Haskell, Java, Lisp, Lua, ML, Objective C, Pascal, Perl, PHP, Pike, Pliant, Python, Ruby, and Smalltalk. This library is distributed under GNU LGPL version 2, which can be found in the file "COPYING". This license allows you to use SDL freely in commercial programs as long as you link with the dynamic library. The best way to learn how to use SDL is to check out the header files in the "include" subdirectory and the programs in the "test" subdirectory. The header files and test programs are well commented and always up to date. More documentation is available in HTML format in "docs/index.html", and a documentation wiki is available online at: http://www.libsdl.org/cgi/docwiki.cgi The test programs in the "test" subdirectory are in the public domain. Frequently asked questions are answered online: http://www.libsdl.org/faq.php If you need help with the library, or just want to discuss SDL related issues, you can join the developers mailing list: http://www.libsdl.org/mailing-list.php Enjoy!
