Sdl_disbale

SDL Development
1

Hi

i’m writing my first ‘hello world’ with sdl and
i’m wondering that my compiler can’t find SDL_DISABLE.

SDL_ENABLE works. i wanted to use it to turn off the
mouse cursor. So i choose SDL_IGNORE instead which
works too.
I’m using SuSE 7.0 with SDL 1.1

greetings

i’ wondering that nobody is answering to
such a simple problem; i grep’d through all
my .h’s but did’nt find any SDL_DISABLE !
is this normal for SDL 1.1 ?

but anyway; i would like to know if anybody
has tested SDL with Xinerama; because later
(when i buyed a 2nd gfx card) i would like
to start my XServer in let’s say 1280x480 so
that i have two 640x480 monitors;
(or 640x240 => 2* 320x240 would be perfect)
will SDL be capable to open one fullscreen
surface over both monitors? has anybody tested
something like this (or another multihead solution)

thanks in advance

I just grep’ed through all my .h’s, too, and there it is:
SDL_events.h:#define SDL_DISABLE 0
So, the SDL you can get on www.libsdl.org under SDL 1.1 downloads (that’s
1.1.8) has it (although even that is “antique”).
SDL 1.0.8 doesn’t have it, but then, its archaic, so who cares?
You should perhaps upgrade to a more recent SDL version.

SDL_DISBALE would be the constant to unpack hay :slight_smile:
