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. :(

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)
