CVS Update (IMA-ADPCM + goodies)

SDL Development
1

The latest CVS snapshot contains support for loading IMA-ADPCM compressed
WAV files… finally. :slight_smile:

Also new, I implemented the MessageBox and text output window API in the
GUI example library. They all look a bit plain, so if somebody wants to
jazz them up, feel free! :slight_smile:

There’s also code in the new GUI example library to convert BMP image files
to C headers which can be compiled into your code and loaded at run-time.
It might be useful for some of you. :slight_smile:

When I’m happy with the solution for I/O redirection under Win32/MacOS,
I’ll add that to the CVS archive as well; I’m still waiting for more
feedback… Cliff? :slight_smile:

And finally, very exciting, Kent Mein has contributed an example of using
SDL and GTK in the same program! I’m still not sure why you’d want to do
this :), but check it out in the new gtk-test directory of the examples
archive!

Whew!

This is great news. I can think of several reasons but they boil down to
a fairly simple summary: getting the best of both worlds. GTK is a
superb GUI toolkit but I would really like to use SDL for its surface
handling, sound and network code.
