Hi.

If anyone is interested - i’ve just put a small RWops extension on
github that allows you to load files from the web. Currently an async
mode is not really supported - but it’s planned.

Hey this seems quite nice!
Are you interested in implementing a similar functionality to PhysFS by any
chance?

I’m sorry, I don’t think so.

I will try to extend this over time to implement a async interface and
maybe add support for more curl-like libs.

This would probably work with the PHYSFSRWOPS extra anyhow, right?
SDL_RWops is the more generic interface, so I’m glad it was done this way
instead of the other way around.

PHYSFSRWOPS only makes PHYSFS_Files look like a RWOPS, not the other way
around.

(but the dev branch can do this with PHYSFS_Io, and probably use most of
the SDL_rwhttp with a little modification.)

Hi Martin,

I really like the simple design of this. Good job!

“PHYSFSRWOPS only makes PHYSFS_Files look like a RWOPS, not the other way

Oh right, I’m just being silly.

Hi.

Just to let you know. There is a new version ready at github which
supports SDL_net for fetching from an URL. So libcurl is no longer
mandatory.

If anyone is using the lib, please send feedback and/or problems.

Martin
