view TODO @ 4140:fc69b552ee32 SDL-1.2

Date: Thu, 28 Feb 2008 22:54:29 +0100 From: Sylvain Beucler Subject: [SDL] SDL window resize and flicker I have a resizable SDL window, and when it's resized, the surface goes black _and_ is flushed to screen before I have a chance to redraw it. This causes flicker. The super-small attached patch fixes this issue by avoiding a SDL_Flip() right after the window resize. What do you think? This SDL_ClearSurface function is only called once in the code, in SDL_SetVideoMode, and as far as I can tell the patch doesn't introduce other changes than getting rid of the flicker.

Wish list for the 1.3 development branch:
http://bugzilla.libsdl.org/

 * 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 Mac OS 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
 * 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)
