Description Anders F Bj 2006-05-09 15:48:29 UTC 
The current SDL_config_macosx.h is hardcoded to use Cocoa/Quartz,
it would be better if you could override this (if you wanted to)
to use another video driver like the Carbon/QuickDraw or even DSp.
Ditto for the two audio drivers, now both SoundManager/CoreAudio.

The config file is supposed to define what is actually built for the current configuration.  Maybe we need SDL_config_carbon.h?
Comment 3 Anders F Bj 2006-05-10 03:16:25 UTC 
It was used conditionally in SDL_config_macos.h, so I continued with that.

i.e. (from include/SDL_config_macos.h)
/* Enable various cdrom drivers */
#if TARGET_API_MAC_CARBON
#define SDL_CDROM_DUMMY         1
#else
#define SDL_CDROM_MACOS         1
#endif

/* Enable various input drivers */
#if TARGET_API_MAC_CARBON
#define SDL_JOYSTICK_DUMMY      1
#else
#define SDL_JOYSTICK_MACOS      1
#endif

Splitting the Mac OS X SDL_config_macosx.h into "SDL_config_carbon.h" and "SDL_config_cocoa.h" could be done, not sure how popular it would be though ?
Comment 4 Sam Lantinga 2006-05-10 03:26:25 UTC 
This should be fixed in subversion now... I just added a special #if TARGET_API_MAC_CARBON section, like I did for MacOS Classic.
