Raster Graphics Inc. is offering its newest product, the Standard Drawing
Library (SDL), in source form to embedded systems and VMEbus customers.
A free evaluation copy of SDL is available for selected X Window System
platforms, including Linux.
The Standard Drawing Library (SDL) is a scaleable C graphics library designed
for use with real-time and non-real-time operating systems. SDL is small,
compact, ROMable, and offers device independent graphics functions for board
level and embedded systems applications.
SDL is written in ANSI C and is supplied as source code. SDL is scaleable,
which means that its target code size can be controlled by limiting the number
of functions used in a given application. SDL has been designed to run on any
CPU and operating system that uses linear addressing and that is supported by
an ANSI C compiler and linker.
SDL includes a generic graphics driver module to provide the hardware specific
routines needed to interface SDL to the graphics hardware in a user's system. A
graphics driver specification is provided to customers licensing SDL source
code, allowing the customer to customize SDL for their particular graphics
hardware. SDL can be readily ported to a new system by changing this one
module. SDL, therefore, does not depend on any specific graphics hardware and
can be used with VGA chips, EL panels, LCD displays, and most other graphics
devices. In addition, Raster Graphics Inc. has written device drivers for
several VMEbus boards, including the Motorola MVME160x-001 PowerPC board.
SDL documentation includes the SDL C Library Reference Manual. Documentation is
supplied in Microsoft Word (6.0) source, as well as printable PostScript files.
A copy compiled for i486-X11R6-Linux-aout has been put in Incoming on sunsite
as "xsdl-i486-linux.tar.gz".
