Date: Wed, 1 Feb 2006 18:20:33 -0800 From: Eric Wing Subject: SDL/Universal Binary updates Hi Sam, Attached is a big set of changes to the Xcode projects to support Universal Binaries. I have also included .dmgs that include the prebuilt frameworks. Ryan, I also updated SMPEG which is also in the package. The SDL and smpeg binaries were built against the CVS version (pulled maybe a month ago?). I do not have an Intel Mac to test on so I have no idea if this stuff actually works. However, Christian Walther has been a big help in testing 10.2.8 and 10.3.9 so I'm fairly confident we got the build settings correct for at least PPC. I have attempted to document the important things for producing these Universal Binaries. Documentation is somewhat scattered through out everything, but there is a big centralized piece of documentation in the UniversalBinaryNotes.rtf in the SDL.dmg. As far as Universal Binaries are concerned, the big things were: - Build with gcc 3.3 on PPC, 4.0 on Intel. - We couldn't get any of the MMX/SSE code to compile/link (SDL and smpeg). - All 3rd party dependencies had to be rebuilt as Universal There were also a bunch of non-Universal things that have been updated: - I converted the SDL-satellites to create .dmg's instead of .pkg installers - Updated all 3rd party static libraries with current versions. (I think libpng was the most dramatic going from 1.0.? to 1.2.8 with API breakage. I haven't found any problems so far in doing this.) - Changed some compiler optimization settings - Finally updated the exports list for SDL_mixer - Tried to include a static smpeg in SDL_mixer (multiple build variants in Xcode project now) - Enabled Altivec in SDL (we forgot to add the flags to Xcode last time) - More documentation Since so many things have changed, there might be new problems introduced. The big issue I've found so far is with SDL_mixer. As I mentioned on the mailing list, MP3's produce an assertion failure. And the MikMod problem reported on Bugzilla continues to persist. There's probably a bunch of other stuff I'm forgetting. There really were hundreds of little things I mucked with so it's hard to remember them all. If you have any questions, feel free to ask. Thanks, Eric

>If you wish to do pixel level modifications on a surface, then understanding how SDL stores its color information is essential.</P

>8-bit pixel formats are the easiest to understand. Since its an 8-bit format, we have 8 <TT
CLASS="STRUCTFIELD"
><I
>BitsPerPixel</I
></TT
> and 1 <TT
CLASS="STRUCTFIELD"
><I
>BytesPerPixel</I
></TT
>. Since <TT
CLASS="STRUCTFIELD"
><I
>BytesPerPixel</I
></TT
> is 1, all pixels are represented by a Uint8 which contains an index into <TT
CLASS="STRUCTFIELD"
><I
>palette</I
></TT
>-&#62;<TT
CLASS="STRUCTFIELD"
><I
>colors</I
></TT
>. So, to determine the color of a pixel in a 8-bit surface: we read the color index from <SPAN
CLASS="STRUCTNAME"
>surface</SPAN
>-&#62;<TT
CLASS="STRUCTFIELD"
><I
>pixels</I
></TT
> and we use that index to read the <A
HREF="sdlcolor.html"
><SPAN
CLASS="STRUCTNAME"
>SDL_Color</SPAN
></A
> structure from <SPAN
CLASS="STRUCTNAME"
>surface</SPAN

>-&#62;<TT
CLASS="STRUCTFIELD"
><I

>-&#62;<TT

>Pixel formats above 8-bit are an entirely different experience. They are
considered to be "TrueColor" formats and the color information is stored in the
pixels themselves, not in a palette. The mask, shift and loss fields tell us
how the color information is encoded. The mask fields allow us to isolate each
color component, the shift fields tell us the number of bits to the right of
each component in the pixel value and the loss fields tell us the number of
bits lost from each component when packing 8-bit color component in a pixel.
