Bug 1151

Summary: DisplayMode calls broken on Mac
Product: SDL Reporter: Mike Kasprzak <mike>
Component: videoAssignee: Sam Lantinga <slouken>
Status: RESOLVED INVALID QA Contact: Sam Lantinga <slouken>
Severity: blocker    
Priority: P2    
Version: HG 2.0   
Hardware: x86   
OS: Mac OS X 10.6   

Description Mike Kasprzak 2011-02-24 06:51:22 UTC 
SDL_GetDesktopDisplayMode and SDL_GetCurrentDisplayMode no longer work correctly on Mac.  Making a call as follows:

{
	SDL_DisplayMode DisplayMode;
	SDL_GetDesktopDisplayMode( &DisplayMode );

	// ... //
}

The DisplayMode structure will be filled with incorrect data (in my test case, 32767 x -2116798271 at 32767 Hz).

It sounds like mismatched data structures.  Things work fine here.  Have you tried doing a clean build after installing the new Framework?  Are you sure you're using matching headers and libraries?
Comment 2 Mike Kasprzak 2011-02-24 08:42:36 UTC 
Oops!  Yes it was mismatched headers that was the problem.  I was doing something silly whilst trying to get SDL 1.2 and 1.3 working (letting me pick A or B).  It was working fine with HG build from a couple weeks ago, so I hadn't noticed the problem until now.
Comment 3 Sam Lantinga 2011-02-24 09:24:36 UTC 
Great, I'm glad you figured it out. :)
