Date: Thu, 24 Jun 2004 15:13:40 +0300 (EEST) From: Martin_Storsj� Subject: Small patches for SDL/win32 I've tried playing with running SDL compiled for Windows with Wine (and WineX) under Linux. It didn't originally work too well, but I somehow managed to make it work. Most of the fixes was patches to Wine(X), but I also found something in video/windx5/SDL_dx5video.c which, as far as I can tell, actually is a bug in SDL. The result from the COM method Release, which returns the new reference count, is compared to DD_OK. Because QueryInterface is called immediately before, the reference count shouldn't be DD_OK (== 0).
