Hi List,

An update to PDP: http://zwizwa.be/pd/pdp/pdp-0.14.1.tar.gz

0.14.1: Port SCAF MMX code to x86_64 ABI Revive pdp_opengl (3dp) Bugfixes

cool. esp good to see 3dp back again.

SCAF (Simple Cellular Automata Forth) is ported to x86_64 ABI. It still uses the old MMX 64bit integer code which makes little sense on x86_64, but at least it works.

quick questions: is scaf supposed to work on non-i386/amd64? i' asking because i have prepared the debian packages, and by default they will be compiled on a number of non-x86 architectures. if scaf is known to not work on these platforms, i will have to disable it.

3dp mostly works. Some known issues in corner cases (pdp/opengl/doc/examples): - example05.pd : multiple window render contexts causes crash

i noticed that i cannot close a 3dp window. closing the patch will leave the window open, opening another 3dp patch will crash Pd.

apart from that, here [1] is a collection of patches from the Debian package, which i think should be applied upstream (they might need to be applied in the correct order; and i'm trying to leave out the Debian-specific patches)

• • skip_pd_check.patch

make install will fail if there is no $(prefix)/lib/pd directory. i think this is an overly zealous check and should be removed. (e.g. when building pdp on Debian, pd itself is not installed; however, it is guaranteed that pd is installed if you install pdp (via the package manager))

• • 01_destdir.patch

prefix installation targets with $(DESTDIR), to allow sandbox installations

• • 02_install_extra-pdp.patch

this is probably Debian specific, where i install the entire pdp suite (binaries, help-patches, abstractions) into $(prefix)/lib/pd/extra/pdp/, rather than cluttering $(prefix)/lib/pd/extra

• • kfreebsd_hurd.patch

needed to compile pdp on HURD-systems and Debian/kFreeBSD (both are not "Linux" (as in the kernel), but close enough)

• • fix_typos.patch

replace "unkown" with "unknown".

• • hardening.patch

allow to add extra LDFLAGS to the build-system (used for adding hardening flags in debian)

• • searchpath_check.patch

this is probably Debian specific (see 02_install_extra-pdp.patch), where pdp checks at startup whether the pdp-abstractions can be found.

• • help_input.patch

Debian-specific alteration to the [pdp_help_input] abstractions.

• • fix_v4l.patch

for whatever reasons this keeps creeping into pdp: on none of my systems i have V4L2_CID_HCENTER nor V4L2_CID_VCENTER, so i always have to remove these ZL_V4L_CTRLs

• • fix_verbosity.patch

moving the pdp/pf-window spits out an endless number of "ConfigureNotify" messages into the Pd-console. this patch silences that.

• • scaf_configure.patch

scaf/configure.ac misses a few closing quotes.

• • scaf_build.patch

prefix installation targets with $(DESTDIR), to allow sandbox installations

• • fix_install.patch

when doing a sandbox installation, $(prefx)/bin might not be there; in this case install bin/foo $(prefix)/bin would install "foo" not within /bin bat *as* /bin, which is not what we want.
