Date: Wed, 31 Dec 2003 21:55:30 +0100 From: Max Horn Subject: SDL: video/quartz cleanup while doing some experimental changes in the quartz code, I was annoyed by having to recompile that one big .o file over and over again. So I decided to finally realize one TODO: properly splitting the code over multiple files :-). With two exceptions, I didn't make code changes, only rearranged files and added new headers. Since there are several new files, making a patch didn't work out so well, so I decided to just send you all the new & modified files. The one source change I made is related to showing/hiding the mouse. I renamed cursor_visible to cursor_should_be_visible and cursor_hidden to cursor_visible; I think that makes reading the code easier. Then I added two new functions: QZ_ShowMouse and QZ_HideMouse. They help manage cursor_visible (the former 'cursor_hidden'). Finally I replaced the Carbon ShowCursor/HiderCuror calls by [NSCursor hide] and [NSCursor unhide]. The API docs are not conclusive, but it might be that with those the "cursor_visible" (former 'cursor_hidden') hack may not be necessary anymore; however so far I didn't test this hypothesis, so I left that in. The other change was to remove in_foreground and use [NSApp isActive] instead: Manually keeping track of whether we are in the foreground is error prone. This should work better in some corner cases.

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).
