All good and well, but to keep this project going we need to improve.<br />  Getting people to use SDL Perl  <br />After a long chat with a new SDL user on #sdl today, I realize we still have some way to go. Currently it seems we are lacking in a few areas. We can definitely use some feedback and help in these areas. <br />  Tutorials/Documentation<br /> <br />  We have more docs now on http://sdl.perl.org but they suck <br /> What type of tutorials do you think will be good for beginners? <br />  A project start to finish? <br /> Individual tutorials for various topics? <br /> What needs to go in SDL::CookBook? <br />  <br /> API sweetness <br />  SDL Perl depends on distinct C libraries <br />  This makes naming conventions, data formats different the SDL:: namespaces <br /> How do people design this stuff? <br />  We are hackers and we just go do stuff but I think this needs some prior thought <br /> Any takers? <br />   <br /> Distribution <br />  If SDL scripts can be packaged up simply for game developers to distribute their games it will be a big plus <br />  One way is a Wx::Perl::Packer clone <br /> Another is a CPAN/Steam clone that game devs can upload games too and people can point and click download games?&nbsp; <br />    If anyone wants to help in these areas please talk to us on sdl-devel@perl.org.&nbsp;    <br /> <a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/9LDtns437JWMVWJoUGIR6gCE1W0/0/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/9LDtns437JWMVWJoUGIR6gCE1W0/0/di" border="0" ismap="true">  <br /><a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/9LDtns437JWMVWJoUGIR6gCE1W0/1/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/9LDtns437JWMVWJoUGIR6gCE1W0/1/di" border="0" ismap="true">   <img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/YetAnotherPerlGameHackeryapgh/~4/EXlozhjfhdo" height="1" width="1"/><br /><a href="blog-0005.html" style="font-size: 12px">[more]</a><br /><br /></div><hr /><div><a href="blog-0006.html">Games::FrozenBubble: It is a start!</a><br /><span style="font-size: 10px">Monday, 12 April 2010</span><br /><span style="font-size: 10px">Tags:</span> <a href="tags-Frozen-Bubble.html" style="font-size: 10px">[Frozen Bubble]</a> <a href="tags-Perl.html" style="font-size: 10px">[Perl]</a> <a href="tags-SDL.html" style="font-size: 10px">[SDL]</a><br />We released a playable (client) frozen bubble on  CPAN .

-SDL RC 2.5 decides to play with PDL
+The Build Process of SDL Perl
 </h1>
 <div class="CONTENT">
-<i>PDL provides great number crunching capabilities to Perl and SDL provides game-developer quality real-time bitmapping and sound.<br />
-You can use PDL and SDL together to create real-time,<br />
-responsive animations and simulations.<br />
-In this section we will go through the pleasures and pitfalls of working with both powerhouse libraries.</i> <b>-- David Mertnes</b><br />
+<p>A while ago I had a long chat with mst on why SDL uses Module::Build rather then Make. I told him it is a simple matter of code inertia.  The existing Module::Build system has worked well for us so far. Never the less, he convinced me that switching to Make will improve debugging the Build system. But to be able to switch we will need to completely replace the Build system. I am not prepared to do that so I will just present the requirements so mst or someone else can at least attempt to switch.</p><br />
 <br />
+<h3>The Build Process </h3><br />
+<b> Alien::SDL </b><br />
 <br />
-<h1>Creating a SDL Surface piddle</h1><br />
-PDL's core type is a piddle.<br />
-Once a piddle is provided to PDL it can go do a numerous amounts of things.<br />
-Please see the example in '<a href="http://github.com/kthakore/SDL_perl/blob/master/examples/cookbook/pdl.pl">examples/cookbook/pdl.pl</a>' in github.<br />
+<p>SDL Perl depends on a few C libraries for a complete install. This is handled by Alien::SDL. First we look for existing SDL libraries and dependencies by doing a <a href="http://github.com/kthakore/Alien_SDL/blob/master/inc/My/Utility.pm#L581">File::Find</a> for headers. If these headers are found we  present and option for the user to use those. We then store these locations in Alien::SDL->config options 'cflags', 'prefix' and 'libs'. If we do not have libraries available even for a minimum SDL installed ( SDL.h is not found). We provide several platform specific options. </p><br />
+<p>For windows we have a simpler process. We download<a href="http://github.com/kthakore/Alien_SDL/blob/master/inc/My/Utility.pm#L7"> prebuilt </a>binaries ( and checksum ) based on the user's selection and just copy them in to the right location. Again the 'prefix', 'cflags', and 'libs' is saved in Alien::SDL->config. </p><br />
+<p>For *nix/MacOSX we download sources and attempt to compile them. To be able to do this we download several other dependencies like libpng, jpeg and pango. You can see how we do this using hashes <a href="http://github.com/kthakore/Alien_SDL/blob/master/inc/My/Utility.pm#L404">here</a>. During the compile process we also apply patches as needed for the <a href="http://github.com/kthakore/Alien_SDL/blob/master/inc/My/Utility.pm#L430">sources</a>. Once this is done we can head to SDL Build.PL </p><br />
+<b> SDL Perl dependency resolution </b><br />
 <br />
-<h3>Creating a simple piddle</h3><br />
-First lets get the right modules.<br />
+SDL's Build is responsible for linking the right libraries to the correct XS. If libraries are missing it will disable the component (not put it in SDL->config). <br />
 <br />

-Suppose you want a surface of size (200,400) and 32 bit (RGBA).<br />
+<p>For example to build <a href="http://github.com/kthakore/SDL_perl/blob/master/Build.PL#L342">Image.xs</a> we require libsdl, libsdl_image and lib[jpg|png|tiff]. So we would check for these headers in the prefix provided by Alien::SDL->config. If they are not provided we will disable the SDL::Image module. </p><br />
+<p>More over the availability of each library is specified as a -DMACRO to the gcc compiler. This way we can prevent XS failures due to missing libraries using #DEFINES. Here the SDL_image macro is <a href="http://github.com/kthakore/SDL_perl/blob/master/Build.PL#L422">defined</a> and <a href="http://github.com/kthakore/SDL_perl/blob/master/src/Image.xs#L13">used</a>. The availability of the module is then available from <a href="http://github.com/kthakore/SDL_perl/blob/master/t/image.t#L20">SDL::Config->has()</a> <br />

+<b> Conclusion </b> <br />
+<p>This is a high level overview of our Build process, because frankly I hate traumatizing my brain with this again. Credits have to go to FROGGS and kmx for helping with this Build scheme. Hopefully my post have helped people at the very least appreciate the problem scope of this Build system. That said I believe a fresh written build system, with these requirements in mind, will be more then welcome.<br />

+<p>In an attempt to make pixel access easier on SDL_Surface pixels. I have started work on <a href="http://github.com/kthakore/SDL_perl/commit/7ee1a1a7f162080a6fa5274e95b80961486e21e5">SDLx::Surface</a>. So far I have only start on the 32 bpp surfaces.</p><br />
+<p>The general idea is to make Pointer Values (PV) of each pixel in the surface and place them into a 2D matrix. First I make pointer values like this: </p><br />

-Getting people to use SDL Perl: Docs, API, and Distribution
+SDLpp.pl: Packaging SDL Scripts Alpha
 </h1>
 <div class="CONTENT">
-<h4><i>The road so far</i></h4><br />
-Things have been busy but fruitful. Our two core modules are getting to be a bit more stable. <a href="http://matrix.cpantesters.org/?dist=Alien-SDL+1.403">Alien::SDL 1.405</a> is behaving well. This foundational stability will start to show results in <a href="http://matrix.cpantesters.org/?dist=SDL+2.405">SDL</a> too I believe. Most excitingly the main developer of frozen-bubble is reviewing our <a href="http://search.cpan.org/~kthakore/Games-FrozenBubble-2.202/lib/Games/FrozenBubble.pm">Games::FrozenBubble</a> port to CPAN. All good and well, but to keep this project going we need to improve.<br />
+After a lot of patches and head scratching I have an alpha version of <a href="http://github.com/kthakore/SDL_perl/blob/eabffdcf5635fa1f78a9c87d7953a11215609630/scripts/SDLpp.pl">SDLpp.pl</a>. The purpose of SDLpp.pl is to allow SDL perl developers to package their game for end users. <br />
 <br />
-<h4><i>Getting people to use SDL Perl</i></h4><br />
-After a long chat with a new SDL user on #sdl today, I realize we still have some way to go. Currently it seems we are lacking in a few areas. We can definitely use some feedback and help in these areas. <br />
+Here is the <a href="http://gist.github.com/301949">shooter.pl</a> packaged up:<br />

-<ul><li>Tutorials/Documentation<br />

-
-<ul><li>We have more docs now on http://sdl.perl.org but they suck</li>
-<li>What type of tutorials do you think will be good for beginners?</li>
-
-<ul><li>A project start to finish?</li>
-<li>Individual tutorials for various topics?</li>
-<li>What needs to go in SDL::CookBook?</li>
-</ul></ul>
-<li>API sweetness</li>
-
-<ul><li>SDL Perl depends on distinct C libraries</li>
-
-<ul><li>This makes naming conventions, data formats different the SDL:: namespaces</li>
-<li>How do people design this stuff?</li>
-
-<ul><li>We are hackers and we just go do stuff but I think this needs some prior thought</li>
-<li>Any takers?</li>
-</ul></ul></ul>
-<li>Distribution</li>
-
-<ul><li>If SDL scripts can be packaged up simply for game developers to distribute their games it will be a big plus</li>
-
-<ul><li>One way is a Wx::Perl::Packer clone</li>
-<li>Another is a CPAN/Steam clone that game devs can upload games too and people can point and click download games?&nbsp;</li>

-We released a playable (client) frozen bubble on <a href="http://search.cpan.org/%7Ekthakore/Games-FrozenBubble-0.001_1/lib/Games/FrozenBubble.pm">CPAN</a>. There is more work to be done but it is a great start! It currently works on Windows and Linux.<br />
+<h4><i>The road so far</i></h4><br />
+Things have been busy but fruitful. Our two core modules are getting to be a bit more stable. <a href="http://matrix.cpantesters.org/?dist=Alien-SDL+1.403">Alien::SDL 1.405</a> is behaving well. This foundational stability will start to show results in <a href="http://matrix.cpantesters.org/?dist=SDL+2.405">SDL</a> too I believe. Most excitingly the main developer of frozen-bubble is reviewing our <a href="http://search.cpan.org/~kthakore/Games-FrozenBubble-2.202/lib/Games/FrozenBubble.pm">Games::FrozenBubble</a> port to CPAN. All good and well, but to keep this project going we need to improve.<br />

+<h4><i>Getting people to use SDL Perl</i></h4><br />
+After a long chat with a new SDL user on #sdl today, I realize we still have some way to go. Currently it seems we are lacking in a few areas. We can definitely use some feedback and help in these areas. <br />
+<br />
+<ul><li>Tutorials/Documentation<br />
+</li>
+
+<ul><li>We have more docs now on http://sdl.perl.org but they suck</li>
+<li>What type of tutorials do you think will be good for beginners?</li>
+
+<ul><li>A project start to finish?</li>
+<li>Individual tutorials for various topics?</li>
+<li>What needs to go in SDL::CookBook?</li>
+</ul></ul>
+<li>API sweetness</li>
+
+<ul><li>SDL Perl depends on distinct C libraries</li>
+
+<ul><li>This makes naming conventions, data formats different the SDL:: namespaces</li>
+<li>How do people design this stuff?</li>
+
+<ul><li>We are hackers and we just go do stuff but I think this needs some prior thought</li>
+<li>Any takers?</li>
+</ul></ul></ul>
+<li>Distribution</li>
+
+<ul><li>If SDL scripts can be packaged up simply for game developers to distribute their games it will be a big plus</li>
+
+<ul><li>One way is a Wx::Perl::Packer clone</li>
+<li>Another is a CPAN/Steam clone that game devs can upload games too and people can point and click download games?&nbsp;</li>
+</ul></ul></ul><div>If anyone wants to help in these areas please talk to us on sdl-devel@perl.org.&nbsp;</div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3102167581424744259-7164362190686365958?l=yapgh.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>

+In prep for the TPM meeting we have been working hard to release a new version of SDL Perl and Alien::SDL. After a lot of feed back from testers (Mike Stok, Stuart Watt, and Chas Owens), we where able to get a working version on 64bit and Mac. The releases will be out tomorrow but here <br />
+is some eye candy to tide you guys over.<br />

-So I am preparing a presentation of the new SDL perl for February's Toronto Perl Mongers meeting. What better way to so off SDL perl then with a game? <br />
-<br />
-I started hacking a small point an click game a few days back. I really didn't have a idea in mind, but I did have a goal. I wanted to make a game that shows the basics of a game in SDL. Drawing to screen, game loops, physics and so on. I think I have accomplished it so far. <br />

-<br />
-To play this game you need the following:<br />
-<br />
-<ul><li> <b>Only for Linux)</b> sudo apt-get install libsdl-dev libsdl_gfx-dev </li>
-<li> cpan Alien::SDL </li>
-<li> Click Download Source http://github.com/kthakore/SDL_perl/tree/redesign </li>
-<li> Extract it </li>
-<li> perl Build.PL; perl Build; perl Build install </li>
-<li> perl Shooter.pl </li>
-</ul><br />
-I will put up binaries soon-ish.<br />
-<br />
-It is a playable (albeit hard) game right now. All 7 seven levels of it. The purpose of the game is simple click the balls to win. Sounds easy but it isn't. You also get a time in milliseconds after each level. Share your scores on here! I will leave it up to you guys to be honest. <br />
-<br />
-I do have to tidy it up and right documentation for it. This way I will be able to present it clearly to my fellow mongers. I am also still looking for ideas to make this a more polished game. FROGGS recommend I make it a classic NES duck hunt game. I thought since I am using gravity I could do a UFO game out of it where you shoot the UFOs.

-So a new alpha is out on <a href="http://search.cpan.org/~kthakore/SDL-2.3_5/">CPAN</a>, after a bit of a break. We are trying to pick up our speed again. Hopefully we can get back to the weekly updates. This week I am going to try to get Mixer and TTF bindings test, redesigned and doc'd. Hopefully soon we can start working on Frozen Bubble, as things are starting to come together. This alpha release has finally given us a good implementation of SDL Timers. Also <a href="http://daniel.ruoso.com/categoria/perl/games-perl-1">Daniel Ruoso</a> has also started a series blog posts of making games with SDL Perl. Hopefully this can get more people in SDL, cause we can sure use the help!<br />

I am open to your ideas.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3102167581424744259-1585061047069454098?l=yapgh.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>

-Threaded XS callback finally gets solved.

 </div><br />
+So a new alpha is out on <a href="http://search.cpan.org/~kthakore/SDL-2.3_5/">CPAN</a>, after a bit of a break. We are trying to pick up our speed again. Hopefully we can get back to the weekly updates. This week I am going to try to get Mixer and TTF bindings test, redesigned and doc'd. Hopefully soon we can start working on Frozen Bubble, as things are starting to come together. This alpha release has finally given us a good implementation of SDL Timers. Also <a href="http://daniel.ruoso.com/categoria/perl/games-perl-1">Daniel Ruoso</a> has also started a series blog posts of making games with SDL Perl. Hopefully this can get more people in SDL, cause we can sure use the help!<br />
 <br />
-So I was planning staying silent until an exam I had was done. But new developers on IRC (j_king, felix and ruoso) pull me back in. Which is a good thing ... I suppose ... because we finally have threaded callbacks for timer and audiospec to work. ruoso++ for this major contribution. If you remember this was the <a href="http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1791114/creating-threaded-callbacks-in-xs">problem</a> we were having. <br />
-<br />
-The new callbacks capability in audiospec allow you to procedurally generate sound now. If you would like a simple example take a look at <a href="http://github.com/kthakore/SDL_perl/blob/redesign/t/core_audiospec.t"> t/core_audiospec.t</a>. However a more fun example may be ruoso++'s <a href="http://github.com/ruoso/tecla">tecla</a> (a game for toddlers).  Myself and Garu think it is a work of art but that is only because we are toddlers. <br />
-<br />
-On a side note some tickets on RT have also received some love ( after 3 or 4 years ... but nonetheless). TonyC++ sorry for the long time in response. <br />

-<p>When I was struggling with SDL C a while ago, someone recommended <a href="http://sol.gfxile.net/gp/index.html">Sol's Tutorial</a> to me. It had not only help me understand video in SDL, but I believe my code has improved using Sol's code style. I would like to pass these along to fellow SDL_Perl users too. So here is the <a href="http://github.com/kthakore/SDL_perl/blob/redesign/examples/sols/ch02.pl">Ch 02</a> code of Sol's Tutorial in SDL_Perl. It will be getting more and more Perly as our team hacks on it.  There is more to come!<br />
-</p><br />
-<p>To use this code you need the new Redesigned SDL_Perl Library </p><br />
-<h1>Getting SDL Dependencies </h1><br />
-Only If you are on Linux (debian/ubuntu) you need the following dependencies:<br />
-<br />
-<pre>$ sudo apt-get install libsdl-net1.2-dev libsdl-mixer1.2-dev libsmpeg-dev libsdl1.2-dev libsdl-image1.2-dev libsdl-ttf2.0-dev </pre><br />
-On Windows we recommend using <a href="http://strawberryperl.com/">Strawberry Perl</a>. It comes with SDL-1.2.13 header files and libs included.<br />
-<br />
-Both Windows and Linux needs to install Alien::SDL<br />
-<br />
-<pre>$ cpan Alien::SDL</pre>** Add sudo to this for Linux<br />
-<br />
-<h1>Getting Bleeding SDL </h1><br />
-The bleeding SDL is on github.  Click download on this <a href="http://github.com/kthakore/SDL_perl/tree/redesign"> site </a>.<br />
-<br />
-Extract it and cd into the folder run <br />
-<pre>$ cpan . </pre>** The dot is needed <br />
-** in Linux you may need to do sudo<br />

+<h1><a href="http://sol.gfxile.net/gp/index.html">Sol's Tutorials</a> </h1><br />
+<p>When I was struggling with SDL C a while ago, someone recommended <a href="http://sol.gfxile.net/gp/index.html">Sol's Tutorial</a> to me. It had not only help me understand video in SDL, but I believe my code has improved using Sol's code style. I would like to pass these along to fellow SDL_Perl users too. So here is the <a href="http://github.com/kthakore/SDL_perl/blob/redesign/examples/sols/ch02.pl">Ch 02</a> code of Sol's Tutorial in SDL_Perl. It will be getting more and more Perly as our team hacks on it.  There is more to come!<br />
+</p><br />
+<p>To use this code you need the new Redesigned SDL_Perl Library </p><br />
+<h1>Getting SDL Dependencies </h1><br />
+Only If you are on Linux (debian/ubuntu) you need the following dependencies:<br />
+<br />
+<pre>$ sudo apt-get install libsdl-net1.2-dev libsdl-mixer1.2-dev libsmpeg-dev libsdl1.2-dev libsdl-image1.2-dev libsdl-ttf2.0-dev </pre><br />
+On Windows we recommend using <a href="http://strawberryperl.com/">Strawberry Perl</a>. It comes with SDL-1.2.13 header files and libs included.<br />
+<br />
+Both Windows and Linux needs to install Alien::SDL<br />
+<br />
+<pre>$ cpan Alien::SDL</pre>** Add sudo to this for Linux<br />
+<br />
+<h1>Getting Bleeding SDL </h1><br />
+The bleeding SDL is on github.  Click download on this <a href="http://github.com/kthakore/SDL_perl/tree/redesign"> site </a>.<br />
+<br />
+Extract it and cd into the folder run <br />
+<pre>$ cpan . </pre>** The dot is needed <br />
+** in Linux you may need to do sudo<br />
 <br />
-So I have been hacking for a while on SDL::Events::set_event_filter. The code below is an example usage. The magic behind this is <a href="http://github.com/kthakore/SDL_perl/blob/1712fe42d62c2a3e382e6bf91366eb2ce9d2f5f4/src/Core/Events.xs">here</a> <br />
+Then you can run this script by doing<br />

-<h3>Last Legacy Release</h3><br />
-Ok! Now this weekend hopefully we will release our last legacy release, after this we move on! This release will focus on showing of SDL + Perl possibilities.<br />
-<h3>Pong + SDL::Game::Rect</h3><a href="http://onionstand.blogspot.com/">garu</a> has been working on making SDL object extensions that provide a more perly way to use and play with the SDL bindings. To demonstrate the benefits of this SDL::Tutorial::Pong is done and being polished up. SDL::Game::Rect is a peek in to the design and vision we have for SDL down the road.<br />
-<h3>Design</h3>The design we have settled on for future release for SDL Perl can be broken in to two layers, SDL::* and SDL::Game::*. Previously the SDL Perl library tried to provide C bindings and provide Perl Idiomatic access. This was messy in regards to the single responsibility principle (do one thing and do it well).<br />
+<h3>SDL::Video</h3>For the core development most of the focus has been on redesigning around the Video category of the SDL perl API. As of now we are <a href="http://bit.ly/2ar7bK">50% done</a>. 19 functions out of 38 functions have been implemented and tested. <br />
 <br />
-We have decided to separate these two focuses into the two name spaces SDL::* and SDL::Game::*. SDL::* will provide straight access to SDL's C API, nothing less and nothing more. SDL::Game::* will extend and make pretty unicorns for Perl. <br />
 <br />
-This design has already begin to pay of. One major benefit been in the XS <a href="http://github.com/kthakore/SDL_perl/commit/20f544ea4f3e7b34c68445aba89ed9c69d411ddf">readability</a>. Moreover since structs are treated as objects, Perl manages their destruction, and deliver less memory leaks.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3102167581424744259-4327446497206876141?l=yapgh.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>

 <br />
-</div><h1>The design before</h1><br />
-The bindings before were all in <a href="http://github.com/kthakore/SDL_perl/blob/master/src/SDL.xs">one huge XS file</a>. This was then exported into the SDL module. This means that the XS file has to handle with macros if any component (e.x SDL_Mixer) is not compiled. Moreover having ever binding in one XS file prevents use to treat C structs as object with only one point of free and malloc. This would be BEGIN and DESTROY in Perl. Also the monolithic design introduces a lot of bugs because we have to use free and malloc all over the place. Lastly SDL monolithic design has the constructor for all structs in both Perl and in XS. <br />
+<h3>Website and Windows Testing</h3><b>FROGGS (Tobias Leich):</b> Came in as a new user to SDL Perl. And after breaking the redesigned SDL Perl in as many ways possible he has decided to help out on the new site. <br />
 <br />
-<h1>The design we are aiming for</h1>Simple <a href="http://github.com/kthakore/SDL_perl/blob/master/src/Rect.xs">one XS</a> per Module. This would also simplify the Build code.<br />
 <br />
-<h2>First Step </h2><br />
-We have began with SDL Rect. It is in github master branch now. We are in the progress of making it back compatible. Originally SDL::Rect took named variables as parameters for new(). Now since the constructor <a href="http://github.com/kthakore/SDL_perl/blob/master/src/Rect.xs#L16">is in XS</a> we have only unnamed parameters. <br />
+<h3>Last Legacy Release</h3><br />
+Ok! Now this weekend hopefully we will release our last legacy release, after this we move on! This release will focus on showing of SDL + Perl possibilities.<br />
+<h3>Pong + SDL::Game::Rect</h3><a href="http://onionstand.blogspot.com/">garu</a> has been working on making SDL object extensions that provide a more perly way to use and play with the SDL bindings. To demonstrate the benefits of this SDL::Tutorial::Pong is done and being polished up. SDL::Game::Rect is a peek in to the design and vision we have for SDL down the road.<br />
+<h3>Design</h3>The design we have settled on for future release for SDL Perl can be broken in to two layers, SDL::* and SDL::Game::*. Previously the SDL Perl library tried to provide C bindings and provide Perl Idiomatic access. This was messy in regards to the single responsibility principle (do one thing and do it well).<br />
 <br />
+We have decided to separate these two focuses into the two name spaces SDL::* and SDL::Game::*. SDL::* will provide straight access to SDL's C API, nothing less and nothing more. SDL::Game::* will extend and make pretty unicorns for Perl. <br />

-</div><div style="text-align: left;">So 5 weeks ago, SDL Perl was broken. It had been for several years. After the last release SDL Perl works ... somewhat. The quick releases that you have seen have been work-arounds, fixes and refactoring. This is not bad for a few weeks of work but, there is a point where code smell and technical debt is too huge to fix with out redesigning. This is that point.<br />
-</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
-</div><div style="text-align: left;">Since the redesigning will take time and effort it will be good to have a leg up. This leg up is Frozen Bubble 2.20. Frozen Bubble employs a lot of C and Perl hacks to cover up for SDL Perl's lacking. This will help in a sense fast forward the code status to 2008. Since Frozen Bubble is helping us out, we can go one step forward and help it out! <br />
-</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
-</div><div style="text-align: left;">So Alias (Adam Kennedy) and I have started work on making Frozen Bubble CPAN accessible. Frozen Bubble is a well know game and making it cross-platform will bring lots of attention and hopefully contributions to SDL Perl.<br />
-</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
-</div><div style="text-align: left;">In Alias's <a href="http://use.perl.org/%7EAlias/journal/39701">earlier post</a> about this he mentioned about making a splash and some other stuff. I will talk about how and where we will be accomplishing this task. <br />
-</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
-</div><div style="text-align: left;">First we will be tracking Frozen Bubble on the new <a href="http://sdlperl.ath.cx/projects/SDLPerl/wiki">SDL Perl Trac website</a>. This site will be similar to Padre's Trac site. As a bonus for people looking to help out in SDL Perl I have separated tasks by <i>perceived </i>difficulty. This will help to breakdown harder task too.<br />
-</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
-</div><div style="text-align: left;">For example for Frozen Bubble the two major bumps we have run into so far are:<br />

-</div><div style="text-align: left;">Making the Build System Portable: <a href="http://sdlperl.ath.cx/projects/SDLPerl/ticket/7">Ticket #7</a><br />
-</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
-</div><div style="text-align: left;">The first one will be difficult as it involves XS. So I will break it down into easier tasks with specific instruction which can then hopefully be picked up by interested contributers. The second one there is sort of a forte of Adam so I will leave it up to him. This is the process I am proposing make hard tickets, break them down.<br />
-</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
-</div><div style="text-align: left;">This will generate a lot of easy tickets that will hopefully be synchronized.&nbsp; If you are interested in this please give me a shout on #sdl irc.perl.org or the mailing list at sdl-devel@perl.org and I will get you registered.<br />

+</div><h1>The design before</h1><br />
+The bindings before were all in <a href="http://github.com/kthakore/SDL_perl/blob/master/src/SDL.xs">one huge XS file</a>. This was then exported into the SDL module. This means that the XS file has to handle with macros if any component (e.x SDL_Mixer) is not compiled. Moreover having ever binding in one XS file prevents use to treat C structs as object with only one point of free and malloc. This would be BEGIN and DESTROY in Perl. Also the monolithic design introduces a lot of bugs because we have to use free and malloc all over the place. Lastly SDL monolithic design has the constructor for all structs in both Perl and in XS. <br />
+<br />
+<h1>The design we are aiming for</h1>Simple <a href="http://github.com/kthakore/SDL_perl/blob/master/src/Rect.xs">one XS</a> per Module. This would also simplify the Build code.<br />
+<br />
+<h2>First Step </h2><br />
+We have began with SDL Rect. It is in github master branch now. We are in the progress of making it back compatible. Originally SDL::Rect took named variables as parameters for new(). Now since the constructor <a href="http://github.com/kthakore/SDL_perl/blob/master/src/Rect.xs#L16">is in XS</a> we have only unnamed parameters. <br />
