This currently doesn't affect absolute motion, which would need to be implemented on each windowing system so the cursor matches the reported mouse coordinates.

I was previously unaware that rotating the device to a different orientation when the keyboard is shown causes a keyboardWillHide followed by a keyboardWillShow notification. The previous patch would then mistakenly StopTextInput when rotating. This patch fixes that by checking if the device is rotating before stopping text input.

With rev. 10651, i.e. http://hg.libsdl.org/SDL/rev/747a6a795b21 ,
SDL2 - OS X builds fail to run on 10.6 (my setup: i686 / 10.6.8)
because the symbol _IOPMAssertionCreateWithDescription is missing.
The SDK listing it for 10.7+ does seem correct. Reverting r10651
and rebuilding makes it to function again.

The SDL_BlitScaled function runs into an access violation for specific blit coordinates and surface sizes. The attached testcase blits a 800x600 surface to a 1280x720 surface at the coordinates -640,-345 scaled to 1280x720. The blit function that moves the data then runs over and reads after the pixel data from the src surface causing an access violation.
I can't say where exactly it goes wrong, but I think it could have something to do with the rounding in SDL_UpperBlitScaled. final_src.y is 288 and final_src.h is 313. Together that's 601, which I believe is one too much, but I just don't know the code enough to make sure that's the problem.
Sylvain
I think this patch fix the issue, but maybe it's worth re-writing "SDL_UpperBlitScaled" using SDL_FRect.
The non-deprecated approach (IOPMAssertion) already exists in SDL, and is
available in Mac OS X 10.6 and later (although it was incorrectly listed as
10.7 and later in SDL). Since SDL now requires 10.6 or later, this is no
longer conditionally used.

SDL2 allows to create widow and to get information through SDL_SysWMinfo.
But it misses something, with Vulkan, you need the HWND and HINSTANCE of the window for Win32 system.
Sadly, SDL2 provides only HWND but not HINSTANCE.
In some context, it can be difficult to get the HINSTANCE, indeed, I'm using pySDL2 (Python) and I can only access properties that SDL2 gives me.
I have to use a dirty trick like that to get the HINSTANCE: (https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bglgwyng/pyVulkan/master/examples/win32misc.py)

Building SDL 2.0.5, or even the Mercurial snapshot (r10608) with GCC 6.2.1 and --enable-video-directfb generates a number of compiler diagnostics and fails.

The software renderer produces incorrect results when blending textures at an angle with certain blend modes. It seems that there were some edge cases that weren't considered when the SW_RenderCopyEx function was last changed. Or another bug possibly covered up the problem. (More on that in another bug report.)
Most of the issues come from the fact that the rotating function sets a black colorkey. This is problematic because black is most likely appearing in the surface and the final blit will ignore these pixels. Unless a colorkey is already set (the software renderer currently never sets one), it's very hard to find a free color. Of course it could scan over the whole image until one is found, but that seems inefficient.
The following blend modes have issues when drawn at an angle.
NONE: The black pixels get ignored, making them essentially transparent. This breaks the 'dstRGBA = srcRGBA' definition of the NONE blend mode.
MOD: Again, the black pixels get ignored. This also breaks the 'dstRGB = dstRGB * srcRGB' definition of the MOD blend mode, where black pixels would make the destination black as well. A white colorkey will work though, with some preparations.
BLEND: There are some issues when blending a texture with a translucent RGBA target texture. I - uh - forgot what the problem here exactly is.
This patch fixes the issues mentioned above. It mainly changes the code so it tries to do things without the colorkey and removes the automatic format conversion part from the SDLgfx_rotateSurface function. Getting the format right is something the caller has to do now and the required code has been added to the SW_RenderCopyEx function.
There's a small change to the SW_CreateTexture function. RLE encoding a surface with an alpha mask can be a lossy process. Depending on how the user uses the RGBA channels, this may be undesired. The change that surfaces with an alpha mask don't get encoded makes the software renderer consistent with the other renderers.
The SW_RenderCopyEx function now does these steps: Lock the source surface if necessary. Create a clone of the source by using the pixel buffer directly. Check the format and set a flag if a conversion is necessary. Check if scaling or cropping is necessary and set the flag for that as well. Check if color and alpha modulation has to be done before the rotate. Check if the source is an opaque surface. If not, it creates a mask surface that is necessary for the NONE blend mode. If any of the flags were set, a new surface is created and the source will be converted, scaled, cropped, and modulated. The rest of the function stays somewhat the same. The mask also needs to be rotated of course and then there is the NONE blend mode...
It's surprisingly hard to get the pixel from a rotated surface to the destination buffer without affecting the pixel outside the rotated area. I found a way to do this with three blits which is pretty hard on the performance. Perhaps someone has an idea how to do this faster?
As mentioned above, the SDLgfx_rotateSurface now only takes 8-bit paletted or 32-bit with alpha mask surfaces. It additionally sets the new surfaces up for the MOD blend mode.
I shortly tested the 8-bit path of SDLgfx_rotateSurface and it seemed to work so far. This path is not used by the software renderer anyway.
Vitaly Novichkov
Okay, when I researched code and algorithm, I tried to replace condition "while(dst >= target)" with "while(dst > target)" and crashes are gone.
Seems on some moments it tries to write into the place before memory block begin, therefore phantom crashes appearing after some moments.
Sylvain 2016-11-07 08:49:34 UTC
when rotated +90 or -90, some transparent lines appears, though there is no Alpha or ColorKey.
if you set a dummy colorkey, it will remove the line ...
if you set a some alpha mod, the +90/-90 get transparent but not the 0/180 ...

It is a bit of a pain to update the library or rely on whatever version the user has on their computer for default mappings.
So providing an easily updatable text file via SDL_GameControllerAddMappingsFromFile is still currently the most viable way. However using this replaces all mappings provided by the SDL_HINT_GAMECONTROLLERCONFIG environment variable which may have come from the user's custom Steam mapping.
There should be an easy way for games to supply extra game controller mappings to fill in the differences between SDL versions without it clobbering the SDL_HINT_GAMECONTROLLERCONFIG environment variable.
Internally the mappings could use a priority system and if the priority is lower then it will not overwrite the mappings.
For now it just assumes SDL_HINT_GAMECONTROLLERCONFIG is the highest priority, the default hardcoded are the lowest and anything set via the API is medium.

On Windows with Visual Studio, when building SDL as a static library using the x86 (32bit) mode, several intrinsic operations are implemented in code in SDL_stdlib.c.
One of these, _allshr() is not properly implemented and fails for some input. As a result, some operations on 64bit data elements (long long) don't always work.
I classified this bug as a blocker since things absolutely don't work when the affected code is invoked. The affected code is only invoked when SDL is compiled in x86 mode on Visual Studio when building a SDL as a static library. This build environment isn't common, and hence the bug hasn't been noticed previously.
I reopened#2537 and mentioned this problem and provided a fix. That fix is provided again here along with test code which could be added to some of the SDL test code. This test code verifies that the x86 intrinsic routines produce the same results as the native x64 instructions which these routines emulate under the Microsoft compiler. The point of the tests is to make sure that Visual Studio x86 code produces the same results as Visual Studio x64 code. Some of the arguments (or boundary conditions) may produce different results on other compiler environments, so the tests really shouldn't be run on all compilers. The test driver only actually exercised code when the compiler defines _MSC_VER, so the driver can generically be invoked without issue.

On systems with old glibc, such mine with glibc-2.8, the following warning

I have implemented Drag and Drop and Clipboard support for Wayland.
Drag and dropping files from nautilus to the testdropfile application seems to work and also copy and paste.
This no longer uses a script to generate code for every possible type
conversion or resampler. This caused a bloat in binary size and and compile
times. Now we use a handful of more generic functions and assume staying in
the CPU cache is the most important thing anyhow.
This shrinks the size of the final build (in this case: macOS X amd64, -Os to
optimize for size) by 15%. When compiling on a single core, build times drop
by about 15% too (although the previous cost was largely hidden by multicore
builds).

I realized overnight that my patch probably broke text input events with UIM, and I confirmed that it does. Can't believe I overlooked that... I've been making stupid mistakes in these patches recently, sorry.
Anyway, *this* one seems to fix it properly. Knowing my luck it probably breaks something else.
Patch uses XkbFreeKeyboard to free the memory returned by XkbGetMap.
Earlier implementation called XkbFreeClientMap which frees all the maps
but not data->xkb structure itself, XkbFreeKeyboard will free maps and
the structure.

SDL2 on Haiku so far uses Haiku-specific APIs for loading dynamic objects as add-ons, instead of using dlopen to load them as libraries. This, for example, leads to SDL_mixer not being able to load its audio backends, when compiled with standard settings.
As discussed at https://www.freelists.org/post/haikuports/SDL2-mixer-ogg-music-not-playing-and-other-stuff,2 , the best way to deal with this would be using dlopen instead of load_add_on. The following patch implements this change by dropping the Haiku-specific bits and using dlopen instead.

Apparently, SDL2 on Haiku does not generate SDL_TEXTINPUT events.
Attached is a patch that adds this functionality.
Tested with SDLs own checkkeys program and different keymaps as well as my own SDL application and German keyboard layout to verify it generates the expected input.

On a RaspberryPI, it might become convenient to specify the Dispmanx layer SDL uses.
Currently, it is hardcoded to be 10000 to sit above most applications.
This can be specially useful when integrating other graphical apps and frameworks like OMXplayer, QT5 etc.. in order to have more flexibility on their Z-order.

Unfortunately, simply checking the return codes of "onNativePadDown/Up" as previously done has its own issue:
If an SDL joystick is connected *and* opened, then a proper KeyEvent, say with keycode KEYCODE_BUTTON_1, should lead to an SDL joystick button event as expected.
If, however, the joystick was *not* opened, then "onNativePadDown/Up" will return a negative value, so before the commit from bug 3426, you could unexpectedly get a keyboard event. (In practice, you'll just get a log message, since KEYCODE_BUTTON_1 has no mapping to a proper SDL_ScanCode value, but it's still an problem).
What should still be done, though, is checking the key code itself. We do have the KeyEvent.isGamepadButton method, but according my test, it returns "true" exactly (and only) for the KEYCODE_BUTTON* values, and not for KEYCODE_DPAD* or any other key code.
Here is a possible solution:
- Do check the return codes of "onNativePadDown/Up" as previously done.
- In addition, in "Android_OnPadDown/Up" from src/joystick/android/SDL_sysjoystick.c, 0 should *always* be returned in case the key code can be translated to an SDL_joystick button; Even if no matching joystick can be found.
Philipp Wiesemann
Maybe the fault is in the SDL_VIDEO_DRIVER_WINDOWS section in SDL_InitSubSystem() of "src/SDL.c". Because there only SDL_INIT_JOYSTICK is checked. The flags are adapted for SDL_INIT_GAMECONTROLLER afterwards.

The patch makes StartTextInput/StopTextInput call Xutf8ResetIC ( https://www.x.org/releases/X11R7.5/doc/man/man3/XmbResetIC.3.html ) on the XIC of all SDL windows.
This fixes my use case in Quakespasm (Ubuntu 16.04, system keyboard layout set to German. Type the '^' dead key, which opens Quakespasm's developer console and calls SDL_StartTextInput, then press 'e'. I expect the dead key to be ignored.)
Also, here is a patch for sdl2's "checkkeys" for testing this: https://bugzilla-attachments.libsdl.org/attachment.cgi?id=2451
Olav Sorensen
After a drag and drop event, any following mouse button input (down/up) doesn't generate an event. Clicking any mouse button a *second* time generates an event like it should.
Further investigation shows that the new SDL_HINT_MOUSE_FOCUS_CLICKTHROUGH logic also causes this issue in other cases, like the first time you open the program and click the mouse.
Simon Hug
There are currently three entry points in the SDL2_main code for windows: main, wmain and WinMain. Only the latter two properly convert the arguments to UTF-8.
Console applications linked with MSVC will always link with the main entry point (wmain has to be selected by manually setting the entry point). This makes it likely that such programs will not have proper unicode arguments.
Sylvain
After a long time, I found out more clearly what was going wrong.
The native libraries should be built with a "APP_PLATFORM" as low as possible.
Ideally, APP_PLATFORM should be equals to the minSdkVersion of the AndroidManifest.xml
So that the application never runs on a lower APP_PLATFORM than it has been built for.
An additional good patch would be to write explicitly in "jni/Application.mk": APP_PLATFORM=android-10
(If no APP_PLATFORM is set, the "targetSdkVersion" of the AndroidManifest.xml is applied as an APP_PLATFORM to the native libraries. And currently, this is bad, because targetSdkVersion is 12, whereas minSdkLevel is 10.
And in fact, there is a warning from ndk: "Android NDK: WARNING: APP_PLATFORM android-12 is larger than android:minSdkVersion 10 in ./AndroidManifest.xml".)
to precise what happened in the initial reported test-case:
Let say the "c" code contains a call to "srand()".
with APP_PLATFORM=android-21, libSDL2.so contains a undef reference to "srand()".
with APP_PLATFORM=android-10, libSDL2.so contains a undef reference to "srand48()".
but srand() is missing on devices with APP_PLATFORM=android-10 (it was in fact replaced by srand48()).
So, if you build for android-21 (where srand() is available), you will really have a call to "srand()" and it will fail on android-10.
That was the issue. The path tried to fix this by in fact always calling srand48().
SDL patches that were applied are beneficial anyway, there are implicitly allowing they backward compatibility of using android-21 on a android-10 platform.
It can be helpful in case you want to target a higher APP_PLATFORM than minSdkVersion to have potentially access to more functions.
Eg you want to have access to GLES3 functions (or other) of "android-21". But, if dlopen() fails (on android-10), you do a fall-back to GLES2.

When running this little test program with SDL2 on Wayland it often crashes in SDL_Init.
From a backtrace it is apparent that there is a race condition in creating a xkb_context_ref. Sometimes it is 0x0.
By moving the relevant lines higher up in Wayland_VideoInit (in SDL2-2.0.4/src/video/wayland/SDL_waylandvideo.c:302) this seems to get fixed.
I moved the call to WAYLAND_xkb_context_new() up to before the call to WAYLAND_wl_display_connect().
Here is the test program (just a loop of init and quit), and a backtrace from gdb:

Sometimes an SDL_assert triggers at RPI_WarpMouseGlobal
src/video/raspberry/SDL_rpimouse.c:232 'update'.
It doesn't always reproduce, but it seems to happen when you really bog down the system and the event loop can't update for awhile.
The first time I hit this, I wasn't even using the mouse. I don't call any warp mouse functions either.
I can usually reproduce with a simple program that runs an expensive blocking CPU series of functions which blocks the main loop until complete (can be up to 10 seconds).
Sometimes this assertion gets triggered after that. I'm not sure if
they are related or coincidental.
Disabling the SDL_asserts when compiling SDL will avoid this problem. I actually haven't seen any problems with the mouse when I do this.
On a Raspberry Pi 2 running Raspbian Jessie.
Call SDL_GL_GetDrawableSize() directly because we may be in the initialization path and SDL_GetRendererOutputSize() will fail because the renderer magic isn't set up yet.

Ok, I followed the simple approach of just making SDL_PIXELFORMAT_RGBA32 an alias of SDL_PIXELFORMAT_RGBA8888/SDL_PIXELFORMAT_ABGR8888, depending on endianess. And I did the same for SDL_PIXELFORMAT_ARGB32, .._BGRA, .._ABGR.
SDL_GetPixelFormatName() will of course return SDL_PIXELFORMAT_RGBA8888 (or SDL_PIXELFORMAT_ABGR8888) instead of SDL_PIXELFORMAT_RGBA32, but as long as that's mentioned in the docs it shouldn't be a problem.
Apparently some systems see "hw:", some see "default:" and some see
"sysdefault:" (and maybe others!). My workstation sees both "hw:" and
"sysdefault:" ...
Try to find a prefix we like and prioritize the prefixes we (think) we want
most. If everything else fails, if there's a "default" (not a prefix) device
name, list that by itself so the user gets _something_ here.
If we can't find a prefix we like _and_ there's no "default" device, report
no hardware found at all.
