So I did a lot of googling and testing and still haven't made progress
fixing these problems.
Problem #1 which prevents me from debugging or running projects which link
to libSDL2.so in the IDE (lazarus) is quite annoying. I've put together a
minimal example. If anyone with access to a 32 bit linux and lazarus setup
could help me figure out why I can't debug or run, I'd very much appreciate
your help.
program sdl2_test;
const
SDL_INIT_VIDEO = $00000020;
function SDL_Init(flags: LongInt): LongInt; cdecl; external 'libSDL2.so';
function SDL_GetVideoDriver(index: LongInt): PAnsiChar; cdecl; external
'libSDL2.so';
procedure SDL_Quit; cdecl; external 'libSDL2.so';
procedure Run;
begin
SDL_Init(SDL_INIT_VIDEO);
WriteLn('Initialized');
WriteLn('Video Driver: ', SDL_GetVideoDriver(0));
SDL_Quit;
WriteLn('Quit');
end;
begin
// issue #1, the line below never executes when Run (F9) from lazarus
Run;
// but runs correctly from a terminal window
end.
Source file of the above here including libSDL2.so binary:
http://www.codebot.org/sdl2_test.zip
If anyone wants to build the SDL2 static and dynamic versions themselves,
type the following in your linux terminal:
mkdir test
cd test
hg clone http://hg.libsdl.org/SDL
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ../SDL
make
Mind you, I'll be contributing the conversions (and some demos) when
everything seems to work correctly, so you'd be doing everyone a favor if
these problems (or at least problem #1) can be resolved.
