Introduction
The SDL Documentation does not explain how to use this on Mac OS (anywhere that I saw anyway) and doing it the windows way with a 32 x 32 icon doesnt work, and the only googling I found comes up with an unanswered question from this site about something similar (the user got it to work but it looks bad. On Mac OS X, pressing Command-Q (the standard keyboard shortcut for 'Quit this application') will cause SDL to generate an SDLQUIT event, regardless of what windows exist at the time. The application is still responsible for terminating itself properly, however. Applications that completely ignore Command-Q will fail Mac App Store certification. Try using the SDL backend for QEMU: $ qemu-system-i386 -display sdl -drive format=raw,file=boot.iso -d cpureset -monitor stdio -audiodev sdl,id=sdl,out.frequency=48000,out.channels=2,out.format=s32 -device sb16,audiodev=sdl; If you're having issues with no image showing up/QEMU freezing, this is a known bug with QEMU SB16 emulation under GTK.
My operating system is macOS Mojave and I am experiencing the same thing. I've configured my development environment using Pyenv 1.2.9. On Pyenv, I've install Python 3.7.2 and Pygame 1.9.4. Python was installed using Pyenv and Pygame was installed using pip. When running my code snippet, I get this screen.
SDL stands for Simple DirectMedia Layer and provides an abstraction for underlying hardware, such as video, audio and input devices. It runs on all major platforms like Android, iOS, Windows, Linux and MacOS and several ports for consoles like Playstation 4 and Nintendo Switch exist.
Many companies in the industry actually rely on SDL, among them well-known game developer Valve, which are using SDL for their Source Engine or Crytek for their CryEngine.
Setup
I am on the latest version of Mac OS X, 10.14.2, Mojave.
I personally prefer the manual installation from source a lot over either installing a .dmg file or using homebrew.
Sdl Snake Mac Os Download
We are going to install both SDL2 (v. 2.0.9) and SDL Image (v. 2.0.4).
Sdl Snake Mac Os X
SDL Image makes it easy to load images as SDL surfaces and textures with file formats such as JPG, BMP and PNG.
Head over to the SDL2 download page and download the latest SDL2 version.
Unzip the directory and cd into it. Run the following commands: Drip drop (gordoniankid) mac os.
Head over to the SDL Image page and download the latest SDL Image version.
Unzip the directory and cd into it. Run the following commands:
This should do the trick already!
Now let's have a look at a basic running example in SDL 2.
Now when you compile your code with GCC, make sure to link both SDL2 and SDL2 Image:
That's it! Run your executable with ./main and observe a basic Window created with SDL.
