Notes:
- Support for the 'Guide' button does not seem to be possible, as
XInputGetStateEx is not available on WinRT.
- Haptic support appears to be working on WinRT now!
- SDL/WinRT does not allow calls to LoadLibrary or LoadLibraryEx. The calls
to those were removed by this change, but only when compiling for WinRT.
Non-WinRT Windows will continue to detect and load XInput via LoadLibrary and
GetProcAddress calls.
If the EGL extension EGL_KHR_create_context is available, we can use it to
set the core/compatability profile and the minimum OpenGL version.
Use this if it is available to get the context requested by the GL attributes.
SDL/WinRT currently uses a separate XInput backend from SDL/Win32, as WinRT
has no support for DirectInput. This change makes SDL/WinRT's XInput
code snag some recently-changed bits from the Win32-specific,
DirectInput + XInput backend, in order to get the SDL_GameController API
working again on WinRT, insofar that axes map to the correct parts.
TODO:
- test all buttons, making sure WinRT maps buttons the same way that Win32 does
- consider making the Win32 and WinRT codebases share more stuff, minus
the sort of duplication happening via this change. Maybe simulate, or
stub-out, DirectInput calls when on WinRT?

This issue occurred when using Ogre3D Graphics engine on Mac (cocoa) to create the window. Then handing the window handle off to SDL_CreateWindowFrom().
In Ogre3D application you do the following:
window_ = root_->initialise(true, "Ogre Window 2");
loadOgreResources();
Ogre::WindowEventUtilities::addWindowEventListener(window_, this);
#if OGRE_PLATFORM == OGRE_PLATFORM_APPLE
NSWindow* Data = 0;
window_->getCustomAttribute("WINDOW", &Data);
sdl_window_ = SDL_CreateWindowFrom((void*)Data);
#endif
It results in a crash in this function:
SDL_cocoakeyboard.m
void
Cocoa_StartTextInput(_THIS)
{
SDL_VideoData *data = (SDL_VideoData *) _this->driverdata;
NSAutoreleasePool *pool = [[NSAutoreleasePool alloc] init];
SDL_Window *window = SDL_GetKeyboardFocus();
NSWindow *nswindow = nil;
if (window)
nswindow = ((SDL_WindowData*)window->driverdata)->nswindow;
// ...
}
The crash occurred because "driverdata" was nil. Before this function call, a call to SetupWindowData is called:
SDL_cocoawindow.m
static int
SetupWindowData(_THIS, SDL_Window * window, NSWindow *nswindow, SDL_bool created)
{
// ...
if ([nswindow isKeyWindow]) {
window->flags |= SDL_WINDOW_INPUT_FOCUS;
SDL_SetKeyboardFocus(data->window);
}
/* Prevents the window's "window device" from being destroyed when it is
* hidden. See http://www.mikeash.com/pyblog/nsopenglcontext-and-one-shot.html
*/
[nswindow setOneShot:NO];
/* All done! */
[pool release];
window->driverdata = data;
return 0;
}
As you can see: "window->driverdata = data" is performed after the "SDL_SetKeyboardFocus()" call, which eventually leads to "Cocoa_StartTextInput()" where the crash occurs.

SDL's code for exposing the accelerometer as a joystick on iOS currently uses UIAccelerometer, which was superseded by the CoreMotion framework and deprecated since iOS 5.
The UIAccelerometer code still works (for now), but it also throws deprecation warnings whenever SDL is built for iOS, since SDL's deployment target is no longer below iOS 5.
I've created a patch which replaces the old UIAccelerometer code with a replacement based on the CoreMotion framework. It has identical functionality (to SDL users), however iOS apps are now required to link to the CoreMotion framework when using SDL.
This adds support for all XInput devices, exposed through the SDL joystick API.
The button and axis reporting for XInput devices has been changed to match DirectInput and other platforms.
The game controller xinput mapping has been updated so this change is seamless.
There is a new hint, SDL_HINT_XINPUT_USE_OLD_JOYSTICK_MAPPING, for any applications that have hardcoded the old xinput button and axis set. This hint will be removed in SDL 2.1.

If 'SDL_OpenAudio' is called with 'obtained == NULL', 'prepare_audiospec' performs a bad 'memcpy' with the destination and source pointing to the same block of memory. The problem appears to be on in 'SDL_OpenAudio', which calls open_audio_device with 'obtained = desired' when 'obtained == NULL'. 'open_audio_device' cannot deal with 'desired' and 'obtained' pointing to the same block of memory but can deal with 'obtained == NULL'
Testing:
* For each theme in Windows 7, Windows 7 Basic, and Windows 7 Classic:
- Ran testsprite2
- Pressed Ctrl-G to grab the mouse
- Alt-tabbed away, verified mouse is no longer grabbed
- Alt-tabbed back, verified that mouse was grabbed
- Alt-tabbed away
- Clicked in the window, verified mouse was grabbed
- Alt-tabbed away
- Grabbed the title bar and dragged the window around successfully, verified that mouse was grabbed when move modal loop completed
- Alt-tabbed away
- Clicked the minimize button on the title bar, the window was successfully minimized
- Clicked on the icon in the task bar, the window was restored and the mouse grabbed again
- Alt-tabbed away
- Clicked the close button on the title bar, the window was successfully closed
I added -Wshadow and then turned it off again because of massive variable shadowing in the blit macros.
Feel free to go through that code and fix these if you want. Just uncomment CheckWarnShadow in configure.in if you want to try this.

In SDL_wave.c, BEXT wave files with "bext" instead of "fmt " are choked on
if (chunk.magic != FMT) {
SDL_SetError("Complex WAVE files not supported");
was_error = 1;
goto done;
}
BEXT files http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Broadcast_Wave_Format actually playback the same as regular waves. All they have is (A LOT OF) extra header info.
To open them, just SKIP the "bext" chunk, and the "fmt " chunk will be a couple of hundred bytes later.
The "fmt " chunk is also bloated, but if you skip past the extra information to the "data" chunk, there is nothing different about a BEXT wave file than a "normal" one.
You can then load the data and proceed as normal.

Compiling with SDL_VIDEO_RENDER_OGL=0, SDL_VIDEO_OPENGL=0, SDL_VIDEO_OPENGL_WGL=0, SDL_VIDEO_RENDER_OGL_ES2=1, SDL_VIDEO_OPENGL_ES2=1 and SDL_VIDEO_OPENGL_EGL=1 set in SDL_config_windows.h fails.
A patch is attached. See bug #2570 for reasons you might want to compile this way.

SDL_hapticlist and SDL_hapticlist_tail are not set correctly when quitting the subsystem. This matters because they are represented as global variables. In the case you quit and reinitialize the subsystems, problems with dangling pointers arise.
For instance, SDL_hapticlist_tail will not be null on second initialization and because of the check on line 298, it will fail to set SDL_hapticlist appropriately. This can cause a few things to go wrong, like feeding SDL_strcmp a null fname which can cause a segfault.
