Happy New Year! :)
- added infrastructure for multi-monitor support; only video_x.cpp is converted for the new scheme; not actually tested with a mult-monitor setup yet but at least single-monitor display doesn't seem to be broken (UAE banked addressing would definitely require some extensions to handle multiple frame buffers) - struct video_mode has an extra field that is free for use by platform- specific code
- documentation updates - 2001 -> 2002 - version 0.9 -> 1.0
- improved compatibility of multiple depth/resolution handling with versions of MacOS before 7.6: - Apple mode IDs are now allocated contiguously from 0x80 (the video_*.cpp module must call video_init_depth_list() after adding all modes) - if the video driver didn't receive a GetVideoParameters call, it patches ScrnBase and the main GDevice upon a video mode switch (otherwise MacOS will continue to use the old frame buffer base) - the rowBytes values in the video parameters slot resources are correct for all bit depths
- video_set_palette() gets passed the number of used palette entries - video_x.cpp supports 2- and 4-bit modes on truecolor screens
fixed compilation problems on BeOS/ppc
- added some documentation - VidLocal.sp -> VidLocal.slot_param - X11 color map is loaded with ramp upon startup to avoid the annoying black screen during initialization
video_x.cpp supports resolution switching in windowed mode: the available resolutions are 512x384, 640x480, 800x600, 1024x768 and 1280x1024 (the prefs editor has to be updated to reflect this). The resolution selected in the prefs editor is used as the default, but it can be changed in the Monitors control panel. So far only tested with direct addressing.
depth/resolution switching infrastructure should be complete now; slot ROM contains all supported depths, default mode is stored in XPRAM upon startup, and added video_switch_to_mode() call (currently unimplemented in all drivers)
added infrastructure for resolution/depth switching (currently, all video drivers only support one mode, the one selected by the user)
- bumped version number to 0.9 - updated copyright dates
- small fixes for NetBSD and AmigaOS
- updated copyright info: 1999->2000
- now compiles with GCC under AmigaOS
