Philipp Wiesemann b48e54aafe Fixed bug 2802 - [patch] Fix android build compiling in wrong filesystem implementation
Jonas Kulla

The configure script didn't differentiate between Linux and Android, unconditionally compiling in the unix implementation of SDL_sysfilesystem.c.

I'm probably one of the very few people building SDL for android using classic configure + standalone toolchain, so this has gone undetected all along.

CMake

(www.cmake.org)

SDL's build system was traditionally based on autotools. Over time, this approach has suffered from several issues across the different supported platforms. To solve these problems, a new build system based on CMake is under development. It works in parallel to the legacy system, so users can experiment with it without complication. While still experimental, the build system should be usable on the following platforms:

  • FreeBSD
  • Linux
  • VS.NET 2010
  • MinGW and Msys
  • OS X with support for XCode

================================================================================ Usage

Assuming the source for SDL is located at ~/sdl

cd ~
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ../sdl

This will build the static and dynamic versions of SDL in the ~/build directory.
