Hi!
This is just a heads-up for my patches, since I don' want to
commit them without your feedback.
1. I implemented key repeat support for keyboard events in
GServerEvent
2. I implemented mouse position setting support in GSDisplayServer
and XGServerWindow. I really need that feature in any serious
OpenGL application.
3. I did some NSOpenGL improvements, like multisampling support. I
think I should coordinate my work there with Xavier and Matt.
I know nothing about OpenGL stuff, and the little I could find
about setting the mouse position in Cocoa says 'don't do it', but
assuming there is good reason for adding that capability, I have
one comment ...
Yeah, Cocoa is not able to set mouse cursor position. You need to
use some low level quartz call on OS X for doing that. As a short
explanation why I need this feature: Basically I implement a first
person view camera (classical First Person Shooter Camera), so
everytime the mouse cursor gets near the window border I have to set
it to the center again. Every FPS Camera works this way, you have to
do the same on Windows, there's no way around it. This brings me to
your next comment
You really need to provide an implementation for mswindows as well
as for gnu/linux. This is really essential for writing portable
applications ... it's a really good discipline to ensure that any
code which works on gnu/linux works on mswindows too.
Okay, I will try to get gnustep trunk running on Windows. Is there
some tutorial in the wiki or somewhere else how to do that?
