Bug 1600

Summary: SDL_GetPlatform() returns "unknown os"
Product: SDL Reporter: Pallav Nawani <pallavnawani>
Component: *don't know*Assignee: Ryan C. Gordon <icculus>
Status: RESOLVED FIXED QA Contact: Sam Lantinga <slouken>
Severity: normal    
Priority: P2    
Version: HG 2.0   
Hardware: All   
OS: Android (All)   
Attachments: patch for really complicated problem

Description Pallav Nawani 2012-09-14 03:23:02 UTC 
Looking through the code for SDL_GetPlatform(), it is obvious that the case for Android platform doesn't exist. And hence SDL_GetPlatform() doesn't return a useful string on Android Phones.

I attached a patch which adds the missing case for Android.

Complicated or not, It was a problem.
