Low-level NativeCall binding to SDL2

sdl2_raw-p6's Issues

factor out framerate info from examples

I'm not entirely sure if it should go into SDL2::Raw at all, but it'd surely be better to have a little module than to have it spread out over all the examples.

Currently in the "main loop" of the examples there's a native num array where frame times (taken using nqp::time_n, though surely a higher-level function ought to be okay, too, nowadays) are pushed, then at the end they are sorted and a few percentiles are printed out. However, if there's not enough values, sometimes it'll output Any or Nil or so.

It'd be nice to analyze it more thoroughly, like giving information about framerate stability (for example, how often do GC pauses increase frame times?)

Lacks a license

As far as I can tell, this module does not have a license attached to it. It would be nice to get a license for this module :) (e.g.: Artistic License v2.0, which Perl6 uses)

add an example that shows off multithreading combined with SDL2::Raw

no SDL_GL_GetProcAddr

Build overview of missing functions, constants, and structs

It'd be cool to do this in an automated way. Either pull functions from the sdl wiki, or pull it from sdl's hg repository (both on libsdl.net)

http://wiki.libsdl.org/CategoryAPI — this has all the symbols in it, i.e. functions, constants, structs. Would be necessary to differentiate them by type, but it could be a good starting point.
http://wiki.libsdl.org/APIByCategory — this is the page i use most often to figure stuff out, for example when i want to build an example or program, rather than just to add to the bindings
https://hg.libsdl.org/SDL/file/default — this lets you browse the files of SDL's mercurial ("hg") repo

Any Documentation?

Lack of function

Please add sub SDL_DestroyWindow(SDL_Window $win) is native($lib) is export {*}
and return value to existing functions like SDL_Init etc.
