Hi Kartik-
I don't have a working SDL module install that I could
check things out on.
Hi guys,
Chris, 'cpan -fi SDL' should install SDL-2.54 on your SPP. (You need force
because a couple of the SDL tests fail.)
During the 'perl build.pl' stage of Alien::SDL you'll be prompted to select
which library package to install. I took option 1 because it was
"RECOMMENDED", though option 2 is probably more recent.
I've run the demo at https://gist.github.com/3772701 but that just produces:
C:\_32\pscrpt\pdl>perl pdl2surface.pl
No available video device at C:/_32/strawberry516/perl/site/lib/SDLx/App.pm
line 123, <DATA> line 206.
SDLx::App::new('SDLx::App', 'title', 'PDL and SDL aplication', 'width', 640,
'height', 640, 'eoq', 1, ...) called at pdl2surface.pl line 12
And same error for
https://github.com/PerlGameDev/SDL_Manual/blob/master/code_listings/pdl.pl
I don't know what needs to be done in order that a "video device" becomes
available. (I'm probably not the sharpest tool in the shed to be using for
this ;-)
Cheers,
Rob
