iOS: Added support for iOS 8 LaunchScreen NIBs.

iOS 8 introduces LaunchScreen NIBs which use autolayout to handle all devices and orientations with a single NIB instead of multiple launch images. This is also the only way to get the App Store badge "Optimized for iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus". So if the application is running on iOS 8 or greater AND has specified a LaunchScreen in their Info.plist, this patch will use the NIB as the launch screen. Otherwise, the code falls back to the legacy code path.

Note: Upon audit of the legacy path, it appears that it does not properly handle the UILaunchImages Info.plist convention. I've added comments inline to the code about this. However, in about a year from now, nobody is going to care about this path since everybody should be using LaunchScreen NIBs.
Fixed bug 2411 - Even if built with --enable-clock_gettime, SDL2 still calls gettimeofday()

Ben Swick

Makes SDL_syscond.c and SDL_syssem.c use clock_gettime(CLOCK_REALTIME) when HAVE_CLOCK_GETTIME is defined.
Fixed bug 2676 - xdnd_version check issue in case ClientMessage

Nitz

I added xdnd_version check to XdndPosition case also
under DEBUG_XEVENTS macro.
by this we can get the action requested by user.

I analysed further and found out that removing xdnd_version check at XdndDrop case is a bad idea because
in XConvertSelection API timestamp should be passed if(xdnd_version >= 1)
otherwise CurrentTime should be passed
So xdnd_version check is important at XdndDrop case

I made xdnd_version as a static so that it can store the version in other cases also.
Fixed bug 2786 - "UCS-2-INTERNAL" iconv encoding is not supported everywhere, use UTF-16LE instead

Jonas Kulla

src/main/windows/SDL_windows_main.c:137:
cmdline = SDL_iconv_string("UTF-8", "UCS-2-INTERNAL", (char *)(text), (SDL_wcslen(text)+1)*sizeof(WCHAR));

I'm trying to compile an SDL2 application for windows using the mingw-w64 32bit toolchain provided by my distro (Fedora 19). However, even the simplest test program that does nothing at all fails to startup with a "Fatal error - out of memory" message because the mingw iconv library provided by my distro does not support the "UCS-2-INTERNAL" encoding and the conversion returns null.

From my little bit of research, it turns out that even though this encoding is supported by the external GNU libiconv library, some glibc versions (?) don't support it with their internal iconv routines, and will instead provide the native endian encoding when "UCS-2" is specified.

Nonetheless, I wonder why the native endianness is considered in the first place when Windows doesn't even run on any big endian archs (to my knowledge). And true enough, 'WIN_StringToUTF8' from core/windows/SDL_windows.h is used everywhere else in the windows backend, which is just a macro to iconv with "UTF-16LE" as source. Therefore it would IMO make sense to use this macro here as well, which would solve my problem (patch attached).
WinRT: bug and data-integrity fixes for SDL_GetPrefPath()

This change does a few things, all with regards to the WinRT implementation of
SDL_GetPrefPath():

1. it fixes a bug whereby SDL_GetPrefPath() did not create the directory it
returned.  On other SDL platforms, SDL_GetPrefPath() will create separate
directories for its 'org' and 'app' folders.  Without this, attempts to create
files in the pref-path would fail, unless those directories were first created
by the app, or by some other library the app used.  This change makes sure
that these directories get created, before SDL_GetPrefPath() returns to its
caller(s).


2. it defaults to having SDL_GetPrefPath() return a WinRT 'Local' folder
on all platforms.  Previously, for Windows Store apps, it would have used a
different, 'Roaming' folder.  Files in Roaming folders can be automatically,
and synchronized across multiple devices by Windows.  This synchronization can
happen while the app runs, with new files being copied into a running app's
pref-path.  Unless an app is specifically designed to handle this scenario,
there is a chance that save-data could be overwritten in unwanted or
unexpected ways.

The default is now to use a Local folder, which does not get synchronized, and
which is arguably a bit safer to use.  Apps that wish to use Roaming folders
can do so by setting SDL_HINT_WINRT_PREF_PATH_ROOT to "roaming", however it
is recommended that one first read Microsoft's documentation for Roaming
files, a link to which is provided in README-winrt.md.

To preserve older pref-path selection behavior (found in SDL 2.0.3, as well as
many pre-2.0.4 versions of SDL from hg.libsdl.org), which uses a Roaming path
in Windows Store apps, and a Local path in Windows Phone, set
SDL_HINT_WINRT_PREF_PATH_ROOT to "old".

Please note that Roaming paths are not supported on Windows Phone 8.0, due to
limitations in the OS itself.  Attempts to use this will fail.
(Windows Phone 8.1 does not have this limitation, however.)


3. It makes SDL_GetPrefPath(), when on Windows Phone 8.0, and when
SDL_HINT_WINRT_PREF_PATH_ROOT is set to "roaming", return NULL, rather than
silently defaulting to a Local path (then switching to a Roaming path if and
when the user upgraded to Windows Phone 8.1).
Improved the pitch variable description
Fixed bug 2766 - Haptic coding bugs and fixes for Linux FF: periodic.phase handled as time instead of angle; + direction clarification

Elias Vanderstuyft

It's not obvious from the general "haptic direction" description what the SDL direction actually means in terms of force magnitude sign,
currently its meaning is only reflected by the example.

Elias Vanderstuyft

"Horizontal" is not very precise, use "Positive phase" instead.
"Positive" because it's actually waveform(2*pi*t + phase) instead of waveform(2*pi*t - phase).
Fixed bug 2766 - Haptic coding bugs and fixes for Linux FF: periodic.phase handled as time instead of angle; + direction clarification

Elias Vanderstuyft

Remove the dependency of the calculation of Linux "phase" on "period",
currently the "phase" parameter is interpreted as a time shift, instead of a phase shift.
The Linux input documentation is not clear about the exact units of the "phase" parameter (see http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/include/uapi/linux/input.h?v=3.17#L1075 ),
but we're about to standardize the 'phase shift' interpretation into the Linux input documentation,
since this will ease the job of a driver to recalculate the effect's state when the user dynamically updates the "period" parameter.
Fixed bug 2795 - SDL library detection selects the wrong lib

Chris Beck

When creating a homebrew recipe for wesnoth, I discovered that the SDL image configuration routine does not detect libpng properly -- if you have multiple instances of libpng on your system, and you use environment variables to select an instance which is not in your system directory, the build can be broken, because it will run configuration tests against the system installed version, but deduce that it should use the filename of the system-installed version. In a vanilla build of wesnoth using homebrew, this results in segfaults at runtime, because you end up linking against two different versions of libpng, which is also needed independently of SDL.

The problem is essentially in the "find_lib" routine in the configure file:



find_lib()
{
    gcc_bin_path=[`$CC -print-search-dirs 2>/dev/null | fgrep programs: | sed 's/[^=]*=\(.*\)/\1/' | sed 's/:/ /g'`]
    gcc_lib_path=[`$CC -print-search-dirs 2>/dev/null | fgrep libraries: | sed 's/[^=]*=\(.*\)/\1/' | sed 's/:/ /g'`]
    env_lib_path=[`echo $LIBS $LDFLAGS | sed 's/-L[ ]*//g'`]
    for path in $gcc_bin_path $gcc_lib_path $env_lib_path /usr/lib /usr/local/lib; do
        lib=[`ls -- $path/$1 2>/dev/null | sort -r | sed 's/.*\/\(.*\)/\1/; q'`]
        if test x$lib != x; then
            echo $lib
            return
        fi
    done
}



Because the for loop goes over the system directories before the environment directories, any system-installed lib will shadow the lib selected via environment variables. This is contrary to the behavior of the configuration tests earlier in the script, which prefers the environment variable libs over the system-installed libs. The 'for' loop should instead be:



    for path in $env_lib_path $gcc_bin_path $gcc_lib_path /usr/lib /usr/local/lib; do

I have checked that this bug also affects SDL 1.2.15, SDL_mixer and SDL_ttf 1.2, which all use this same "find_lib" routine. I have not determined if the bug affects SDL 2.0, which seems not to use this exact routine.
Removed generated doxygen output of visual test suite.

The files may be generated again by running doxygen locally (like SDL's docs).
Fix assert format strings/parameters in testautomation modules; improve output of SDL_CompareSurfaces to aid debugging; update platform_testSetErrorInvalidInput for SDL changes
WinRT: removed SDL_HINT_WINRT_PREF_PATH_ROOT (introduced post-2.0.3 & pre-2.0.4)

A WinRT app's Roaming folder-path can still be retrieved via calls to
SDL_WinRTGetFSPathUTF8() or SDL_WinRTGetFSPathUNICODE(), if need be.
WinRT: fixed bug whereby SDL would override an app's default orientation

WinRT apps can set a default, preferred orientation via a .appxmanifest file.
SDL was overriding this on app startup, and making the app use all possible
orientations (landscape and portrait).
