Sam Lantinga f08480af 2017-10-23T15:23:43 Switched to new style gradle Android application build process
Sam Lantinga 6c38c900 2017-08-31T15:12:08 Update Android SDK required to API level 16 Sylvain Some API 16 methods are used (InputDevice: getDescriptor(), getVibrator()), so we need to compile at least with SDK API 16. Hence default.properties and project.properties have been modified to use android-16. There are also some modification to SDLActivity.java not to use getVibrator() if we run under API 16. And not to check to presence of hasVibrator() if we are under API 11. -some hard-coded constant can be expandend. - rename a local variable (hasVibrator to hasVibratorService)
Sam Lantinga 148ac5b3 2017-08-19T00:27:11 Added Matt Styles' tutorial on building SDL for Android with Visual Studio

Sam Lantinga d3cbc664 2016-10-07T17:49:33 Fixed bug 2983 - Update Android.readme to include Tegra Graphics Debugger compatibility tip Michael Labb? NVidia has released some pretty nice Tegra profiling tools for their Android devices. The NVidia Tegra Graphics Debugger works by providing an interposer library that intercepts ES2 and EGL calls. You must link against these libraries. Unfortunately, this quietly fails with SDL2 because libEGL and libGLES2 are dynamically loaded with dlopen(). NVidia offers a secondary approach to using the Tegra Graphics Debugger: root your device and install a global interposer library. Almost no devs will try this first if they don?t have a rooted device. I propose an update to the Android readme that explains why the static linking approach recommended by NVidia doesn?t work.
Sam Lantinga 104c9541 2016-10-07T17:46:58 Converted README documentation to DOS text format
Philipp Wiesemann 4011d991 2016-02-24T21:05:19 Fixed doxygen warnings about markdown formatting.
Philipp Wiesemann 0e45984f 2015-06-21T17:33:46 Fixed crash if initialization of EGL failed but was tried again later. The internal function SDL_EGL_LoadLibrary() did not delete and remove a mostly uninitialized data structure if loading the library first failed. A later try to use EGL then skipped initialization and assumed it was previously successful because the data structure now already existed. This led to at least one crash in the internal function SDL_EGL_ChooseConfig() because a NULL pointer was dereferenced to make a call to eglBindAPI().
Ryan C. Gordon b72938c8 2015-04-20T12:22:44 Windows: Always set the system timer resolution to 1ms by default. An existing hint lets apps that don't need the timer resolution changed avoid this, to save battery, etc, but this fixes several problems in timing, audio callbacks not firing fast enough, etc. Fixes Bugzilla #2944.
Alex Szpakowski fe6c797c 2015-04-10T23:30:31 Fixed an iOS view orientation issue when SDL_GL_CreateContext or SDL_CreateRenderer is called.
Edward Rudd b88ca1b4 2015-02-10T16:28:56 the last parameter of XChangeProperty is the number of elements.. and when the element format is 32.. the element is "long" so we have 5 long elements here. Yes this seems confusing as on mac+linux Long is either 32 or 64bits depending on the architecture, but this is how the X11 protocol is defined. Thus 5 is the correct value for the nelts here. Not 5 or 10 depending on the architecture. More info on the confusion https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16802
Philipp Wiesemann b48e54aa 2015-01-26T22:00:29 Fixed bug 2802 - [patch] Fix android build compiling in wrong filesystem implementation Jonas Kulla The configure script didn't differentiate between Linux and Android, unconditionally compiling in the unix implementation of SDL_sysfilesystem.c. I'm probably one of the very few people building SDL for android using classic configure + standalone toolchain, so this has gone undetected all along.
David Ludwig 70438be2 2014-12-03T10:55:23 WinRT: fixed bug whereby SDL would override an app's default orientation WinRT apps can set a default, preferred orientation via a .appxmanifest file. SDL was overriding this on app startup, and making the app use all possible orientations (landscape and portrait). Thanks to Eric Wing for the heads up on this!
Philipp Wiesemann 9c398852 2014-11-22T22:20:40 Corrected header file documentation comment.
Pierre-Loup A. Griffais 24c86b55 2014-09-11T19:24:42 [X11] Reconcile logical keyboard state with physical state on FocusIn since the window system doesn't do it for us like other platforms. This prevents sticky keys and missed keys when going in and out of focus, for example Alt would appear to stick if switching away from an SDL app with Alt-Tab and had to be pressed again. CR: Sam
