Changes from 5.2.9.1 to 5.2.10 (November 2024)

Core

  • Add a compatibility config option, keyboard_version=xx.yy.zz as well as the
    same but with joystick_version if it is necessary to restore the old
    behavior. This enables us to fix bugs with the input system, while providing
    a mechanism to restore old buggy behavior temporarily (SiegeLord)

  • Assorted timer improvements (Connor Clark)

  • Optimize inverse transformations. (SiegeLord)

  • Fix the handling of the new window title in ALLEGRO_STATE (#1562)
    (Alexandre Martins)

  • Add ALLEGRO_TRACE_LEVEL environment variable. This makes it easier to
    enable logging on release builds. (SiegeLord)

  • Add al_ref_info to convert ALLEGRO_USTR_INFO to ALLEGRO_USTR
    (SiegeLord)

  • Add al_get_display_adapter (#1578) (SiegeLord)

  • Add al_get_render_state (Mark Oates)

MacOS

  • Don't use usage numbers as joystick button ids on OSX. (#1527) (SiegeLord)

  • Enable deadkey handling on MacOS (SiegeLord).

  • Map numpad delete to ALLEGRO_KEY_PAD_DELETE and the weird ISO section key
    to ALLEGRO_KEY_BACKSLASH2 (#1523) (SiegeLord)

Windows

  • Fix key events when using modifiers (#1430, #1504) (SiegeLord)

  • Fix undesirable deadzone when using analog joysticks (geecab)

  • Use the correct monitor when restoring fullscreen window when using OpenGL
    (SiegeLord)

  • Fix ALLEGRO_FULLSCREEN_WINDOW not working in certain conditions (SiegeLord)

Linux

  • Fix joystick initialization when overriding IO (#1572) (Alexandre Martins)

  • Make sure the bitmap for the initial icon is created as a memory bitmap
    (#1571) (SiegeLord)

Android

  • Add more joystick buttons (#1482) (Alexandre Martins)

  • Fix corruption of bitmaps created with the ALLEGRO_NO_PRESERVE_TEXTURE flag
    when the application loses focus (#1492) (Alexandre Martins)

  • Add al_android_open_fd (Alexandre Martins)

Audio addon:

  • Add MacOS support for listing output devices (Aldrik Ramaekers)

Acodec addon:

  • Prefill ALLEGRO_AUDIO_STREAMs with data (SiegeLord)

  • Add OpenMPT support. This is meant to replace DUMB, as DUMB is not
    maintained. You can use the compatibility config option acodec_prefer_dumb
    to temporarily make DUMB the preferred handler for module files, if Allegro
    is built with both DUMB and OpenMPT. Some modules may sound different under
    OpenMPT. (SiegeLord)

  • Add Android support (Alexandre Martins)

    • Support for MIME types on MacOS
    • Remove the implicit catch-all pattern on Windows (the "All files
      ."), it was inconsistent with other platforms.
    • Make MacOS do a better job at extracting the file extension
    • Improve documentation overall

Video addon:

  • Make al_is_video_playing return false before al_start_video (SiegeLord)

  • Make ALLEGRO_VIDEO work with the automatic destruction system (SiegeLord)

Build system:

  • Reproducible build support (Andreas Rönnquist)

  • Fix multiarch install location (Andreas Rönnquist)
