Fixed bug #537 Description From esigra 2008-01-07 16:20:21 (-) [reply] I try to get a clean compile for a project using SDL. But I get warnings from SDL headers when I use -Wold-style-cast. This is especially bad because I plan to build the software with -Werror=old-style-cast when we have switched over to GCC 4.2, which has that option. But this problem can be fixed in the SDL headers. I checked out the SVN version and made some patches. See the attached patch.

To compile and install SDL:

    1.  Run './configure; make; make install'

        If you are compiling for Windows using gcc, read the FAQ at:
        http://www.libsdl.org/faq.php?action=listentries&category=4#42

        If you are compiling using Visual C++ on Win32, you should read
        the file VisualC.html

    2.  Look at the example programs in ./test, and check out the HTML
        documentation in ./docs to see how to use the SDL library.

    3.  Join the SDL developer mailing list by sending E-mail to
    	sdl-request@libsdl.org
        and put "subscribe" in the subject of the message.

        Or alternatively you can use the web interface:
            http://www.libsdl.org/mailing-list.php

That's it!
