Happy New Year! :)SDL 1.2.15 Release Notes

SDL 1.2.15 is a minor bug fix release.

http://www.libsdl.org/download-1.2.php
General Notes

  • Fixed assembly register clobbering in CPU info routines
  • Fixed memory stomp when using stretch blit on large images
  • Fixed pixel corruption with overlapping blits
  • SDL_JOYSTICK_DEVICE can be a colon separated list of joystick devices
  • Disabled MMX blitters since they don’t compile on modern compilers

Unix Notes

  • Fixed crash in joystick code on newer Linux kernels
  • Fixed channel swizzling for ALSA target with 6-channel output
  • Use the OpenGL GLX_EXT_swap_control extension if available
  • XRandR support is disabled by default because it causes desktop

    environment variable, or by applying this patch:
    http://hg.libsdl.org/SDL/raw-rev/8ec3036098df

There seems to be something wrong with the SDL 1.2.15 Windows runtime
library, as all the details for the version tab of SDL.dll are blank
under Windows XP (SP3).On 21/01/2012 2:49 PM, Sam Lantinga wrote:

It looks like the StringFileInfo resource can’t be found by Windows when
compiled with the mingw32 toolchain. I’m not sure why, it does find the
file version, and I verified that the resource data exists in the DLL. The
same thing happens when trying to add a StringFileInfo resource to a simple
hello world exe.On Fri, Jan 20, 2012 at 11:21 PM, Travis Howell wrote:

A couple days is not enough to test a pre-release! I didn’t see either announcement until today! There should be at least a week allotted to let the community test it.

The first announce was two weeks ago.
