When attempting to render a string containing spaces using
TTF_RenderUTF8_Solid(), rendering fails and NULL is returned. Rendering
is successful when the string contains no spaces. Rendering is
successful with TTF_RenderUTF8_Blended() or TTF_RenderUTF8_Shaded().
The failure appears to be independent of the choice of font. The
included file and font demonstrate the problem. It was compiled with
gcc main.c -lSDL_ttf -lSDL
I investigated the problem further using the source package. When
running the program provided, an error code is returned by the call to
Find_Glyph in TTF_RenderUNICODE_Solid at approximately line 1080 of
SDL_ttf.c. This error does not seem to occur if the third argument to
Find_Glyph is changed to be CACHED_METRICS|CACHED_PIXMAP instead of
CACHED_METRICS|CACHED_BITMAP. I do not know if such a change affects
the expected rendered image.
I discovered this problem because it causes some pygame code to raise
exceptions.
Thanks for the test-case you've provided, I've been able to reproduce
the problem. More intriguing, if I do a SDL_Init(SDL_INIT_VIDEO) at the
beginning then the error message returned by TTF_GetError() is:
Failed loading DPMSDisable: /usr/lib/libX11.so.6: undefined symbol:
DPMSDisable
Unfortunately, I have no deeper insight about this. I've CCed upstream.
Cheers,
Samuel.
