David Ludwig 33f81a0d 2014-05-06T20:31:10 WinRT: made Win[Phone] 8.1 projects be structured like their 8.0 counterparts This change removes the "Shared" component from the Windows 8.1 and Windows Phone 8.1 project files, then renames the projects to use a file structure that's the same as used for the Windows 8.0 and Windows Phone 8.0 projects. This change now places WinRT projects in the following directories: VisualC-WinRT\WinRT81_VS2013\ -- Windows 8.1 project files VisualC-WinRT\WinPhone81_VS2013\ -- Windows Phone 8.1 project files (NEW, as of this change) VisualC-WinRT\WinRT80_VS2012\ -- Windows 8.0 project files VisualC-WinRT\WinPhone80_VS2012\ -- Windows Phone 8.0 project files Windows 8.0 and Windows Phone 8.0 projects, as well as apps or libs that reference these, should be unaffected by this change. Windows 8.1 and Windows Phone 8.1 based apps or libs that reference SDL's projects directly will need to have their old references removed, then replaced with new ones that point to the updated structure.
David Ludwig c5c1a2c6 2014-04-30T21:07:30 WinRT: preliminary support for building against the Windows Phone 8.1 SDK This is a step towards supporting "Universal" Windows apps, when building for Windows Phone. SDL can now build against the Windows Phone 8.1 SDK, and apps linked to it can run, however further work and testing is required as some previously Phone-only code appears to no longer be applicable for Windows Phone 8.1. The Windows 8.1 code paths does seem to be preferable, but should probably be tested and updated on a finer-grained basis. If in doubt, use the Windows Phone 8.0 projects for now, as located in VisualC-WinRT/WinPhone80_VS2012/ TODO: - look at any Windows Phone specific code paths in SDL, and see if Phone 8.1 should use the Windows Phone code path(s), or the Windows 8.x or 8.1 paths
David Ludwig 36696777 2014-04-29T19:06:00 WinRT: added project files for Windows 8.1 + MSVC 2013 This commit also includes some base-level support for Universal apps. TODO: - add support for Windows Phone 8.1 - add support for satellite libs: SDL_image, SDL_ttf, and SDL_mixer
David Ludwig 0ba3a54a 2014-04-19T12:48:45 Cleaned up and rearranged WinRT project file structure. All WinRT projects have been merged into a single directory, "VisualC-WinRT", with platform-specific variants in subdirectories off of it. This structure has been applied to a few major SDL satellite libraries as well (SDL_image, SDL_mixer, and SDL_ttf). Currently, only Windows 8.0/RT and Windows Phone 8.0 targets are supported. Windows 8.1/RT/Phone targets are planned. Projects that use SDL_image/WinRT, and link to it via Visual Studio's project-to-project reference system, will need to be updated, to reflect the changes in the project structure. This can be done by: 1. removing the MSVC project(s) for SDL/WinRT 2. re-added the MSVC project(s) for SDL/WinRT 3. right-clicking on the app, or projects that use those libraries, choosing References, removing the references to any of these projects (they'll likely be highlighted with an exclamation mark), then re-adding them To note, the satellite libraries that reference SDL/WinRT have been updated already. The changes for those libraries will be pushed to hg.libsdl.org shortly. TODO: - add support for Windows 8.1 and Windows Phone 8.1 targets, using Microsoft's new "Universal" app support, if possible. These will be added to a new subdirectory, or subdirectories (if more than one sets of projects are needed, hopefully not), of "VisualC-WinRT". - investigate NuGet support, which could allow Visual C++ to download new copies of SDL/WinRT, its satellite libraries, and their dependencies, from remote servers.
