Yes, sorry about that, I didn't mean that as a nasty jibe.


I didn't take it as such. Note the ";-)"

The main point of my post was that porting SDL to OS4 should be really easy from the current SDL Amiga port. (Providing OS4 has the same API as 3.1) :-)


Yes, you can compile an OS 3.1 program for OS 4, with a few possible things that needs to be fixed - mostly opening libraries if not done in the startup code, and a few things like interrupt handlers that have changed slightly (you wouldn't want to pass parameters to a PPC function in 68k registers, especially if the 68k is disabled  ;-) )

To the best of my knowledge, someone from the team is already working on porting SDL to OS4.


Good, I'm glad you didn't take offence, I don't want any bad feeling between our respective groups  ;-)

I would be surpised if you were not porting SDL, it would make your lives much easier when porting games to other alternative platforms, like Mac, Linux and um... AROS  :-D

You know what I would like to do is no different then requiring AmigaDE Player over Windows over DOS to run AmigaDE games on a PC, or requiring someone to run Windows over DOS to run a Windows Game, or Java over AmigaOS 3.9 to run a Java game.

So you do want to use SDL then?  :-?
