Howdy,
I just started with sdl. I am using Ming32 for
development… don’t have a large HD so no Linux right
now ;(.
Anyway, any other Mingw - sdl users out there? I have
some small questions about installing it properly. I
have set up the sample apps and have gotten them to
compile.
How do I install the SDL_mixer and SDL_image libraries
properly… it seems no matter what I do the compiler
can’t find the libraries?
I am getting a “no suitable ld found in path” error…
I have the PATH pointing to the bin dir and the tests
for SDL compiled correctly… any ideas?
Thanks,
Cameron Aycock__________________________________________________

Do you have a specific preference for Ming32? If you install the cygwin
tools (including gcc) you should have a lot easier time, I would think.
And, really, a harddisk does not cost a lot these days

But the Napster case is not just, or even mainly, about piracy. It is about
business models. The industry wants to stick to its old one - selling
expensive compact discs - and to protect it. But Napster’s success shows
that there is a lot of appetite for a new model. The old model is legal, but
the new one is not, since the industry refuses to endorse it.
Artists’ interests deserve legal protection, within limits; business models
do not.
You can specify an environment variable to the right linker:
export LD=/my_path_to_ld/ld
should work. Then rerun the configure script.On Wednesday 20 February 2002 11:56, Cameron Aycock wrote:

I simply chose MingW because of not having to
redistribute any additional dlls with my application.
But in hindsight I guess I have to distribute the
sdl.dll anyway so I may give it a shot… HDD - $100
buck is a lot of dough when you got wife and kids ;),
sides, I plan on hitting windows primarially.

Cygwin lets you generate MingW files. Use the -mno-cygwin option when
compiling.

Hello im a newbie at SDL. I am learning the bare basics. Here is my
problem:
I set the screen to 1024x768 and draw a surface called background(my
background). The thing is it only draws it at the size it actually is,
but I want it to cover the whole screen.
If you want to look at the source (very crapy) then its at my page:
If your background image isn’t 1024x768, it won’t cover the whole screen.
SDL won’t scale the image, even if you set the h an w fields of the
destination rectangle, in fact these fields are unused by SDL_BlitSurface.
You can use a library to zoom your image, do a function yourself, or use an
external program like the gimp.
Hope that helps

The SDL documentation is fantastic, it should be sufficient to get you
started. There are many applications with full source code that use SDL
available, check out the SDL website for a list of them.
Happy coding,
