SDL is out of date

[ddevault]

The latest version is 2.0.4, and OpenTK depends on some features from it.

Hi there, thanks for the report.

I'm not 100% sure as to the state of this repository.

From my understanding, we're aiming to drop support for SDL as a back-end for OpenTK.

@cra0zy knows more about the specifics here.

[ddevault]

Why on earth would you make that change?

[varon]

From what I can recall, the main idea is that we want to minimize the number of back-ends we have to support/fix/provide feedback on. The default back-ends should be completely sufficient for every use, and relatively transparently (with some testing) handle everything.

I could be horrendously wrong here, so you'll need to get a clear answer from cra0zy here.

Is there some reason you're using SDL over the default ones?

[ddevault]

Well, it has Wayland support.

[varon]

And the default back-end doesn't? What would we need to add that to the default?

[ddevault]

Which is the default backend?

[harry-cpp]

I said reverse, drop the native support and support only SDL backend.

[ddevault]

Oh, alright.

[varon]

Thanks for the clarification, @cra0zy.
