Hi,

I am trying to find out if anyone has gotten SDL working with Wayland 1.0 or if there are plans for getting it to work.


I've tried using the "wl" branch @ https://github.com/dhewg/libsdl/ but so far my feeble attempts are only good at generating segfaults.


Are there any plans for Wayland support in SDL 2?


Thanks,
Willem

We'll either be incorporating that code, or writing our own; I haven't
looked at that particular implementation to say if it's something we'd
pull in.

Wayland is definitely getting officially supported in SDL at some point,
though. I still need to get Wayland itself running here first, though.

In the past week I've managed to get wayland running on arch linux 86_64. I used the guide on the wayland wiki with a few changes.

I've also managed to get a basic app that displays a bitmap running in wayland using https://github.com/soreau/SDL. The framerate of the SDL sample app in wayland is about 1/5 of what it is in X.


If you need any help setting up wayland or working on the wayland side of SDL I would like to get involved as well.


Thanks,
Willem
