From: Tyler Montbriand <tsm@accesscomm.ca> To: sdl@libsdl.org Date: Fri, 30 Sep 2005 02:24:50 -0600 Subject: [SDL] WinCE timers, continued Here's a strange timer for Windows CE that doesn't ignore time across suspends. It uses GetSystemTime to keep the time continuous, and GetTicks to get finer-grained readings than 1 second. It detects the difference between the GetTicks time and GetSystemTime time on power-on to keep the error within one second max. It's not a patch on the current win32 timer code -- took one look at that and figured it had more than enough #ifdefs already. It's windows-ce specific. Another thing I've noticed is that the Windows CE 4.0 and newer API has functions warn processes about suspends. This is something SDL REALLY needs for audio in particular, because turning it off while it's playing causes anything that uses audio to hardlock the system on power-on. Unfortunately I don't have 4.0 to play with. :(

==============================================================================
Using the Simple DirectMedia Layer with MacOS 7,8,9 on PPC
==============================================================================

These instructions are for people using the Apple MPW environment:
http://developer.apple.com/tools/mpw-tools/

CodeWarrior projects are available in the CWprojects directory.

==============================================================================
I.  Building the Simple DirectMedia Layer libraries:
    (This step isn't necessary if you have the SDL binary distribution)

  First, unpack the MPWmake.sea.hqx archive and move SDL.make into the
  SDL directory.

  Start MPW

  Set the current directory within MPW to the SDL toplevel directory.

  Build "SDL"  (Type Command-B and enter "SDL" in the dialog)

  If everything compiles successfully, you now have the PPC libraries
  "SDL" and "SDLmain.o" in the 'lib' subdirectory.

==============================================================================
II. Building the Simple DirectMedia Layer test programs:

  First, unpack the MPWmake.sea.hqx archive, move the new rsrc directory to
  the main SDL directory, and move the makefiles in the new test subdirectory
  to the SDL 'test' subdirectory.

  Start MPW

  Set the current directory within MPW to the SDL 'test' subdirectory.

  Build the programs that have an associated MPW makefile (file ending
  with .make), including "testwin", "testalpha", and "graywin".

  Copy the SDL library file into the test directory, and run!

==============================================================================
III. Building the Simple DirectMedia Layer demo programs:

  Copy one of the test program Makefiles to the demo directory
  and modify it to match the sources in the demo.

==============================================================================
IV.  Enjoy! :)

  If you have a project you'd like me to know about, or want to ask questions,
  go ahead and join the SDL developer's mailing list by sending e-mail to:

	sdl-request@libsdl.org

  and put "subscribe" into the subject of the message. Or alternatively you
  can use the web interface:
