Hello, Armin!
AS> what font library is working well for SDL/Photon ?
Try to search here:
http://www.libsdl.org/libraries.php?order=name&category=any&completed=0&os=any&match_name=font&perpage=50
I’ve tested almost all of them, all works.
And there is “native” library for the TTF fonts:

I’m not sure what you mean. freetype is just a library it’s not for photon
or sdl. As for precompiled libraries, I’ve them here:
http://mike.qnx.org.ru/qopencd/qprs/SDL_ttf_x86-1.2.6-x86-public.qpr
http://mike.qnx.org.ru/qopencd/qprs/freetype2_x86-2.1.9-x86-public.qpr
http://mike.qnx.org.ru/qopencd/qprs/zlib_x86-1.2.2-x86-public.qpr
http://mike.qnx.org.ru/qopencd/qprs/SDL_x86-1.2.8-x86-public.qpr
That’s all what you need to install.
As for zlib - be careful it overwrites the static libraries of zlib and
headers, which are shipped with QNX by default. Dymanic libraries can
coexist, because they are have different .so numbers. Zlib was needed due to
bad zlib, which is shipped with QNX, it lack of few functions (low level
zlib function for processing fragments of the stream), which are must be
exported in dynamic library, because many opensource applications uses them.
If you have some doubts about installing of my build of zlib, try to create
symbol link from the shipped libz.so.2 to the libz.so.3, on which all
packages are depends. As far as I remember freetype2 is not that library
which needs the low level zlib functions.

Thank you. I have already recompiled SDL, SDL_Gfx (patched with
QNX.diff) and and SDL_ttf.
But I have problems with the fonts. The ‘TestFonts’ example of SDL_Gfx
works only stable with 8 bpp … it crashes with 16bpp and 32bpp.
(The video mode is set to 16bpp) The demo example for SDL_ttf works only
if the optimization -O2 is not used (strange). I have tried to fix these
problems but I always running into gdb problems.
Best Regards

I will take a look onto both on weekend. The problem sounds very
interesting.

The SDL_Gfx problem with the fonts depends on the video adapter/driver.
It’s working with an ATI adapter which is set to 32 bits per pixel …
The problem is related to a CT adapter/driver … the
SDL_UpdataRect(screen,0,0,0,0) is crashing.
The compile problem with the demo of SDL_ttf is independend from the
video adapter … it is just strange
Many thanks so far

Hi Mike,
I have recompiled all SDL stuff with the gcc 3.3.1 and all is working now.

FYI: SDL 1.2.10 is out today/yesterday, but there is no QNX improvements.
And QNX version doesn’t support few new APIs yet. I’m planning to schedule a
bit of my time to take a look on to it and to try synchronize QNX port with
the current tree.

AFAIK … there are no dramatical improvments in 1.2.10, so I will stay
with 1.2.9 for a while.
I’m using also SDL_Gfx and wGui for programming of Photon based GUI
applications with our graphical functionblock tool DACHSview-SDL.
(Widgets defined by hierachically defined (embedded) functionblocks)
Many thanks for your efforts

Hi Mike,
the last stable release of SDL is 1.2.11. Are there any changes
necessary in the Photon interface ??
