This extends the display scaling mode to be global and work in terms of pixels everywhere, with the content scale value set on displays. The per-window property had some issues, and has been removed in favor of retaining only the global hint that changes all coordinates to pixel values, sets the content scale on the displays, and generally makes the Wayland backend behave similarly to Win32 or X11.
Some additional work was needed to fix cases where displays can appear to overlap, since Wayland desktops are always described in logical coordinates, and attempting to adjust the display positions so that they don't overlap can get very ugly in all but the simplest cases, as large gaps between displays can result.
The flags parameter has been removed from SDL_CreateRenderer() and SDL_RENDERER_PRESENTVSYNC has been replaced with SDL_PROP_RENDERER_CREATE_PRESENT_VSYNC_NUMBER during window creation and SDL_PROP_RENDERER_VSYNC_NUMBER after renderer creation.
SDL_SetRenderVSync() now takes additional values besides 0 and 1.
The maximum texture size has been removed from SDL_RendererInfo, replaced with SDL_PROP_RENDERER_MAX_TEXTURE_SIZE_NUMBER.
The shorthand version of this function didn't allow specifying a controller name, which seems pretty important. It seems like anyone actually implementing a virtual joystick is going to want to use some of the extended functionality.
This allows applications to re-query the values if the system locale is changed during runtime, and better matches the other locale functions. A note is included in the documentation mentioning that this can be slow, as it has to call into OS functions.
Also allows for the removal of the init/quit time functions, as they are no longer needed.
Added macros SDL_SINT64_C() and SDL_UINT64_C().
Integer suffixes of SDL_MAX_SINT64, SDL_MIN_SINT64, SDL_MAX_UINT64
and SDL_MIN_UINT64 are now system dependent.
Press 'c' to center the pointer in the window using relative coordinates via SDL_WarpMouseInWindow().
Press alt+'c' to center the pointer in the window using global coordinates via SDL_WarpMouseGlobal().
- Adds support for modal windows to Win32, Mac, and Haiku, and enhances functionality on Wayland and X11, which previous set only the parent window, but not the modal state.
- Windows can be declared modal at creation time, and the modal state can be toggled at any time via SDL_SetWindowModalFor() (tested with UE5 through sdl2-compat).
- Allows dynamic unparenting/reparenting of windows.
- Includes a modal window test.
Replacing function call `kill(0, SIGINT);` with `(void)raise(SIGINT);` in file test/testlock.c.
The `kill()` function is not available on Unix systems when compiling without system extensions enabled.
This allows using a much smaller (1.5 KB) lookup table, in exchange for a small amount of extra work per frame.
The extra work (a few extra loads/mul/adds) is negligible, and can execute in parallel.
The reduction in cache misses almost certainly outweighs any added cost.
The table is generated at runtime, and takes less than 0.02ms on my computer.
