I’ve managed to get MinGW compiling an SDL program I’ve written. To my
total amazement it runs! (which is very cool… being able to generate
Windows binaries on a Linux system).
But the keyboard doesn’t work…
The system I tried it on is an NT4 machine, could that be the problem?
Hmm, no, actually it might be a thread thing… my program uses threads
created with the SDL functions, and part way through compiling SDL for
MinGW, it shot something up the screen about thread support.–
I will not waste chalk

It appears to be… I just emailed it off to my Win98 owning cousin,
and it works. Except the fact I try opening /dev/urandom to feed junk
into srand(), which plain won’t work
This is cool though :)On Sat, Mar 02, 2002 at 12:49:52AM +0000, James wrote:

make sure you are also linking to the SDLmain.lib for windows versions.
this will help make sure the keyboard works on those nt4 platforms.
