DirectX - Failed loading D3DX9_*.dll
Hi Kartik and Tobias,
ad our last discussion on IRC.
I have investigated the warning Failed loading D3DX9_*.dll and come up
with the enclosed patch (please forward it to relevant SDL2 mailing
list/bugtracker).
The warning has gone and DirectX seems to be loaded but I was not able to
test it more.
New binaries:

Alien-SDL2 on github was also updated

Re: DirectX - Failed loading D3DX9_*.dll
Awesome. What is the difference (besides muting the error?) for the load there? On Tue, Mar 5, 2013 at 5:09 AM, kmx k...@volny.cz wrote: Hi Kartik and Tobias, ad our last discussion on IRC.

To be honest I do not know how to measure whether HW acceleration was really utilised or not. Perhaps some of your benchmark scripts can tell us :) -- kmx

Packaging with strawberry perl
Hey so, I was trying to send a friend a simple SDL script with strawberry perl to play around with. But strawberry perl seemed huge! Especially with the DBI/Pg and what not in it. How can i get a vanilla version of portable strawberry perl with no extra libraries installed with it. I will then jsut cpan install SDL (or SDL2) and package a 'game' that way. ideas?
Re: Packaging with strawberry perl
In theory you can delete whatever in perl/vendor you only cannot be sure if some of SDL dependencies is not using it. -- kmx On 5.3.2013 17:54, Kartik Thakore wrote: What about stuff inside perl\vendor and what not.

There is no such thing as strawberry perl portable minimal edition What you can do: 1/ take strawberry portable 2/ install SDL + all necessary modules 3/ move all c:\portable-strawberry\c\bin\***.dll to c:\portable-strawberry\perl\**bin\ 4/ delete c:\portable-strawberry\c c:\portable-strawberry\cpan\* c:\portable-strawberry\data\* 5/ now you still have fully working perl (but without possibility to install anything from cpan) -- kmx
Re: Packaging with strawberry perl
Interesting idea. My guess is that for portable strawberry you will need to keep at least perl\vendor\lib\Portable\* perl\vendor\lib\Portable.pm + perhaps File::HomeDir and other Portable's prereqs -- kmx On 5.3.2013 20:54, Kartik Thakore wrote: Could I delete all of perl/vendor and install SDL using cpan.

hmm what if I cpan install that? Where is the 'script' that runs the portable thing? On Tue, Mar 5, 2013 at 4:38 PM, kmx k...@volny.cz wrote: Interesting idea.
