SDL_StartTextInput(), SDL_StopTextInput(), SDL_TextInputActive(), SDL_ClearComposition(), and SDL_SetTextInputRect() all now take a window parameter.
This change also fixes IME candidate positioning when SDL_SetTextInputRect() is called before SDL_StartTextInput(), as is recommended in the documentation.
This declares that any `const char *` returned from SDL is owned by SDL, and
promises to be valid _at least_ until the next time the event queue runs, or
SDL_Quit() is called, even if the thing that owns the string gets destroyed
or changed before then.
This is noted in the headers as "the SDL_GetStringRule", so this will both be
greppable to find a detailed explaination in docs/README-strings.md and
wikiheaders will automatically turn it into a link we can point at the
appropriate documentation.
Fixes#9902.
(and several FIXMEs, both known and yet-undocumented.)
Otherwise, this will crash if the app sets its own SDL_malloc allocator, since
SDL_iconv uses SDL_malloc.
WideCharToMultibyte lets us calculate the needed memory for the argv[] string
conversions, and then we use the win32 HeapAlloc() API to get some memory
for it.
Fixes#8967.
Checking for the pipewire-pulse service is unreliable when used in containers such as Flatpak, so simply use a minimum version check instead and prefer it over the Pulseaudio backend if at least version 1.0.0.
Use DBus to query Systemd to check if the pipewire-pulse service is in the "running" state. If it is, then it is certain that Pipewire is being used instead of Pulseaudio as the preferred system mixer.
If DBus support is not enabled or Systemd is not being used on the underlying system, this check will simply fail and the standard driver order will be tested.
I believe there was a O(n^2) device walking issues on startup
- MaybeAddDevice gets called for every device at startup
- MaybeAddDevice calls IsJoystick
- IsJoystick calls SDL_UDEV_GetProductInfo
- SDL_UDEV_GetProductInfo calls udev_enumerate_scan_devices
- udev_enumerate_scan_devices walks all the devices
Prior to commit 3b1e0e1 this was mostly masked as IsJoystick only
called SDL_UDEV_GetProductInfo when a JSIOCGNAME ioctl was
successful. This fixes the O(n^2) behaviour by directly getting
the device via udev_device_new_from_devnum (based on type, major,
and minor number) instead of enumerating everything via
udev_enumerate_scan_devices and matching on name.
- SDL_RWops is now an opaque struct.
- SDL_AllocRW is gone. If an app is creating a custom RWops, they pass the
function pointers to SDL_CreateRW(), which are stored internally.
- SDL_RWclose is gone, there is only SDL_DestroyRW(), which calls the
implementation's `->close` method before freeing other things.
- There is only one path to create and use RWops now, so we don't have to
worry about whether `->close` will call SDL_DestroyRW, or if this will
risk any Properties not being released, etc.
- SDL_RWFrom* still works as expected, for getting a RWops without having
to supply your own implementation. Objects from these functions are also
destroyed with SDL_DestroyRW.
- Lots of other cleanup and SDL3ization of the library code.
