If you pass the C string directly to NSLog(), it will be garbled with Japanese and probably other language strings, or no log will be output at all.
NSLog("Hello, World!"); // => "Hello, World!"
NSLog("こんにちは、世界！"); // => No output...
Therefore, you need to convert the string to an NSString before passing it to NSLog().
NSString *str = [NSString stringWithUTF8String:"こんにちは、世界！"];
NSLog(@"%@", str); // => "こんにちは、世界！"
Thank you.
This adds SDL_SetWindowKeyboardGrab(), SDL_GetWindowKeyboardGrab(),
SDL_SetWindowMouseGrab(), SDL_GetWindowMouseGrab(), and new
SDL_WINDOW_KEYBOARD_GRABBED flag. It also updates the test harness to exercise
this functionality and makes a minor fix to X11 that I missed in
https://hg.libsdl.org/SDL/rev/02a2d609369b
To fit in with this new support, SDL_WINDOW_INPUT_CAPTURE has been renamed to
SDL_WINDOW_MOUSE_CAPTURE with the old name remaining as an alias for backwards
compatibility with older code.

Exult (http://exult.info) has an editor app that uses GTK+2. Up to now we were using X's drag'n'drop to allow dropping of assets from the editor onto Exult.
There is now an experimental branch that makes use of SDL_DROPFILE. That works under X, dropping in Exult's SDL2 window puts the asset right at the spot you dropped at.
On macOS with native Exult and Quartz GTK+2 this doesn't work, the location of the drop is where the mouse was last tracked before you left the window (usually one of the edges, unless you tabbed out).
All we tried out pointed to the fact that the location update needs to be done by the dropfile event in SDL2, not by our own (which always only worked after the Exult window getting focus).
This patch adds this to SDL_cocoawindow.m and it works perfectly, passing the correct coordinates to our code (SDL_GetMouseState()).

For a window created with SDL_WINDOW_ALLOW_HIGHDPI, SDL_GL_GetDrawableSize will return the high-dpi drawable size even before any GL context creation happens. But SDL_Metal_GetDrawableSize will return the size of the window if the Metal view has not been created. This is confusing and inconsistent behavior.
An easy way to test this is to build testgl2 and testvulkan on macOS with the SDL_WINDOW_ALLOW_HIGHDPI flag enabled during window creation. The GL2 program will report a drawable size of 2x window width and 2x window height, while the Vulkan program will report the window size.
This patch addresses the issue by falling back to using the content view dimensions if no Metal view exists in the window. (The code for this was taken directly from Cocoa_GL_GetDrawableSize.) With this change, the testvulkan behavior matches that of testgl2.
Note that I haven't tested for this issue on UIKit. It's possible a similar change will need to be made there too.

There is an issue report here about an app failing to function on

SDL_cocoametalview was consuming the first click rather than passing it
through to the SDLView underneath which overrides [NSView acceptsFirstMouse]
based on the user's SDL_HINT_MOUSE_FOCUS_CLICKTHROUGH preference.
This is handled in in the higher-level SDL_GL_LoadLibrary().
All uses of SDL_EGL_LoadLibrary (which calls the Only version) are just
target-specific wrappers for their own GL_LoadLibrary hook, with two
exceptions which now handle driver_loaded correctly (although it's
questionable if these init-if-no-one-did-it-correctly-already code blocks
should exist at all, fwiw).
Fixes Bugzilla #5190.
The two are only ever called together, and combining them makes it possible
to eliminate redundant symbol loading and redundant attempts to connect
to a display server.
It currently behaves like a locking key which is pressed
when Caps Lock is enabled and released when disabled. This
means that apps that trigger events on Caps Lock key down will
only fire these events every other time Caps Lock is pressed.

Display ends up taking only 1/4 of the screen area. It needs to call "setWantsBestResolutionOpenGLSurface:highdpi", like when creating a window the normal way.
Caleb Cornett's comments:
"A few weeks ago, Alex added a partial Metal API to SDL2:
https://hg.libsdl.org/SDL/rev/22c8e7cd8d38
I noticed it was missing a few features that would help Metal become a
first-class citizen in SDL, so I went ahead and wrote them! Here are the new
APIs:
1. SDL_WINDOW_METAL flag for SDL_CreateWindow(). This allows the programmer
to specify that they intend to create a window for use with SDL_MetalView.
The flag is used to ensure correct usage of the API and to prevent
accidentally defaulting to OpenGL on iOS.
2. SDL_Metal_GetLayer(). This function takes a SDL_MetalView and returns a
pointer to the view's backing CAMetalLayer. This simplifies things
considerably, since in the current version of the SDL_Metal API the
programmer is required to bridge-cast a SDL_MetalView handle to an NSView or
UIView (depending on the platform) and then extract the layer from there.
SDL_Metal_GetLayer automatically handles all of that, making the operation
simple and cross-platform.
3. SDL_Metal_GetDrawableSize(). This function already exists in the current
SDL_Metal API (and is used behind-the-scenes for SDL_Vulkan_GetDrawableSize
on Apple platforms) but was not publicly exposed. My patch exposes this
function for public use. It works just like you'd expect.
Tested on macOS 10.14 and iOS 12.4."
Fixes Bugzilla #4796.
If called from background threads, use Grand Central Dispatch to use the
main thread instead. On the main thread, just call them directly.
Fixes Bugzilla #4932.

In iOS, URL Events trigger the DropFile event. I would also expect the same event to be fired on the macOS platform but this is not implemented at all in the AppDelegate.

creating a fullscreen window with SDL_CreateWindow(..SDL_WINDOW_FULLSCREEN_DESKTOP..) in MacOS works fine, except if it was triggered by the user with the green knob in the top left window title bar.
Then "something" is different, and SDL_CreateWindow hangs for 15-20 seconds (tested in MacOS 10.13 and 10.14).
Responsible for the hang is this code in SDL_cocoawindow.m - Cocoa_SetWindowFullscreenSpace:
const int maxattempts = 3;
int attempt = 0;
while (++attempt <= maxattempts) {
/* Wait for the transition to complete, so application changes
take effect properly (e.g. setting the window size, etc.)
*/
const int limit = 10000;
int count = 0;
while ([data->listener isInFullscreenSpaceTransition]) {
if ( ++count == limit ) {
/* Uh oh, transition isn't completing. Should we assert? */
break;
}
SDL_Delay(1);
SDL_PumpEvents();
}
if ([data->listener isInFullscreenSpace] == (state ? YES : NO))
break;
/* Try again, the last attempt was interrupted by user gestures */
if (![data->listener setFullscreenSpace:(state ? YES : NO)])
break; /* ??? */
}
One trivial workaround is to change 'const int limit = 10000' to 500. Then the freeze is so short that it doesn't look like a freeze to the user.
Looking further into the problem, I observed that the function Cocoa_SetWindowFullscreenSpace recursively calls itself via some ObjectiveC messages. I managed to extract a callstack for this (copied below): Note how Cocoa_SetWindowFullscreenSpace in stack line 22 calls SDL_PumpEvents, which eventually arrives at SDL_SendWindowEvent, which calls SDL_UpdateFullscreenMode (stack line 0), which then calls Cocoa_SetWindowFullscreenSpace again (not shown). This recursive second call is the one that hangs.
Another "solution" that worked for me was to add a flag to SDL_Window that is set in Cocoa_SetWindowFullscreenSpace and causes this function to return immediately if called from itself.
Obviously, this is also an ugly hack, but I don't have enough time to dive into this crazy Cocoa/ObjectiveC business deep enough to find a proper solution. But hopefully it's easy for one of the experts around.
Note that there is a "failure to go fullscreen"-message involved, maybe using the green knob causes this failure at first.
I can unfortunately not provide a minimum example.

Elmar

A good metric of this is when the titlebar's "minimize" button is reenabled,
which doesn't happen by the time windowDidExitFullscreen triggers.
This fixes minimizing a fullscreen window on macOS.
Fixes Bugzilla #4177.
This is obnoxious and wrong, but the patch that activates the Dock before
activating the app fixes the _menu_ not responding on Catalina, but the
first window created by the app won't have keyboard focus without a small
delay inserted.
This obviously needs a better solution, but it gets it limping along correctly
for now.

We did some investigations into a different direction which I would like to share. As mentioned previously the scaling setting in the preferences play an important role for our problem and they also hint towards an issue with point/pixel scaling factors.
We found an interesting correlation between our fail case and the behavior of [nsWindow.screen backingScaleFactor]. It turns out that whenever we encounter the fail case the scale factor is zero when we print it quickly after calling SDL_CreateWindow. After some time the value changes to a non-zero value. In the success case the scaling factor is nonzero 'immediately'. Note that we don't use that factor. We also find that the window backingScaleFactor does not show the strange behavior even in the fail case.
We have also attempted to find out whether any event triggers the transition from zero to non-zero. We found the transition happening when we call SDL_PollEvent. We can even force this to happen by explicitly adding a SDL_PollEvent at an early stage, but it will only happen if a certain amount of time elapsed, so we need to add some sleep before the call to trigger the transition at an earlier stage. All that seems to imply that the transition happens async and that SDL_PollEvent merely causes the system to update its internal state at that time.
We have also verified that the scaling setting in the preferences does NOT directly correlate to the scaling factor behavior. We find that a particular scaling setting can lead to a fail case for one resolution and a success case for another resolution. This shows that the scaling setting alone does not determine whether the problem will appear or not.
We have also verified on another Mac with 10.14 that the scaling factor is always non-zero and we always have the success case.
I have no idea how to interpret this initial-zero behavior and haven't found any usable information on the screen backing scale factor. It seems as 10.15 does some stuff more async than before and maybe the problem could be caused by unfortunate timings. I would be very interested to hear your opinion about that.
...
Finally we found the cause of all our problems: it's the origin hack in Cocoa_SetWindowFullscreen:
/* Hack to fix origin on Mac OS X 10.4 */
NSRect screenRect = [[nswindow screen] frame];
if (screenRect.size.height >= 1.0f) {
rect.origin.y += (screenRect.size.height - rect.size.height);
}
If we comment this one out our game and testdraw2 do behave correctly.
It turns out that if a window is not fully contained in the screen, it's screen property becomes zero and therefore we saw a zero when printing the backing scale factor (although it's not clear why it became nonzero later).
We suggest to add a runtime check which skips this code for 10.15 (or possibly earlier if you happen to know that the hack is not needed for certain older versions).
More info: consider the line
NSRect screenRect = [[nswindow screen] frame];
in Cocoa_SetWindowFullscreen. We found that this rect has the dimensions of the desktop
on our OS X 10.15 setup. This is true both for the success case and the fail case. It seems as the success case is actually a fail case in disguise.
On the other Mac with OS X 10.14 the same rect has the dimension of the newly created screen. This is what I would expect, because at that time the window has already been created successfully and there should be a newly created screen associated to the window.
What are the cases in which the whole origin conversion code for the fullscreen case is supposed to have a non-trivial result?
Today we found that if we print the dimensions of [nswindow screen] later, then we find them to be correct. So the conclusion seems to be that OS X 10.15 does indeed do the window/screen setup more async than before and that the origin correction code uses the [nswindow screen] at a time where the window/screen setup isn't finalized yet.

Currently, SDL on Cocoa macOS creates a rudimentary menu bar programmatically if none is already present when the app is registered during setup.
SDL could be much more easily and flexibly used on macOS if upon finding that no menus are currently in place, it first looked for the application's main menu nib or xib file and, if found, loaded that instead of programmatically building the menus.
This would then let developers simply drop in a nib file with a menu bar defined in it and it would be installed and used automatically.
Attached is a patch that does just this. It changes the SDL_cocoaevents.m file to:
* In Cocoa_RegisterApp(), before calling CreateApplicationMenus(), it calls a new function, LoadMainMenuNibIfAvailable(), which attempts to load and install the main menu nib file, using the nib name fetched from the Info.plist file. If that succeeds, LoadMainMenuNibIfAvailable() returns true; otherwise false.
* If LMMNIA() returns false, CreateApplicationMenus() is called to programmatically build the menus as before.
* Otherwise, we're done, and using the menus from the nib/xib file!
I made these changes to support a project I'm working on, and felt they were useful enough to be worth offering them for uplift. They should have zero impact on existing projects' behavior, but make Cocoa SDL development miles easier.
Fixes an issue in macOS 10.15 where the displayed content would move up after entering, exiting and re-entering exclusive fullscreen when certain display modes were used (bug #4822).
Bug #3949 is also related to this change.
