Date: Mon, 02 May 2005 04:23:16 -0500 From: Jonathan Atkins Subject: Re: [PATCH] *CRITICAL* 8bit direct RGB palette not being created I think that SDL_AllocFormat should create the palette for all 8bit surfaces. And when the RGBAmasks match the normal 3:3:2:0 we need to apply the old behavior. If the mask doesn't match that, then we need to make the right palette assuming the masks are valid (I don't think we validate any masks for high color surfaces...so we wouldn't here) Then there's always a palette available for the 8bit surfaces. This restores the normal behavior and allows for masks to create palettes automatically for odd masks even, which would be a neato thing to have in there, as SDL never did this before.

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)
