any ideas on why
/**

  • \brief A signed 8-bit integer type.
    */
    typedef int8_t Sint8;

is erroring?

Well i traced the problem, for some reason ./configure is just copying SDL_config.h.in and putting it at SDL_config.h in the include folder and not customising the config file with the results from ./configure. Was able to copy over the SDL_config_win32.h, modify and compile it but any sdl calls will just crash the app which most likely means i have some config flags wrong. Any one got any clues to why ./customise is failing?

Hi has anybody got any clues to this as we’re having the same problem.

any help would be greatly appreciated [Crying or Very sad]------------------------

As usual I’m a month and a version behind everyone else.

I had a similar problem with a similar setup but on SDL 1.2.
Did this matter get resolved?
