Both issues are solvable in pure SDL. Window title can be set by 
SDL_WM_SetCaption, icon in task navigator by setting 
SDL_VIDEO_X11_WMCLASS environment variable. See 
http://maemo.org/maemowiki/GameDevelopment for details. Best is to use 
wrapper shell script as described.


I know that I have some packaging work to do in any case, like .desktop 
and .service files, and they may get the application listed in the 
application manager


You don't need .service file for SDL app, just .desktop as described in wiki

[maemo-developers] How do I hildonise an SDL app?

2006-08-20 Thread Martin 

Hi all,

I'm in need of a little help. I have started the port of Chaos Strikes  
Back to the 770. I've done what I think is the hard bit - getting the  
thing running; I had lots of alignment and packing issues.


The easy bit however is stumping me.

The app goes straight into SDL_Init; it does not use GTK (or anything  
else).


As a result, I get "untitled" as a title in the window bar, and if the  
window is minimised there is no way to get it back.


I looked at how to get SDL apps to run in GTK windows, and found the SDL  
window hack. When I put that in, I got a nice window title, still no entry  
in the application list, and very sadly the SDL window, although  
displaying, did not respond to any mouse clicks.


I know that I have some packaging work to do in any case, like .desktop  
and .service files, and they may get the application listed in the  
application manager, but how do I do the GTK bit (HILDON_PROGRAM etc) and  
get it to work with SDL?


Thanks very much,

Martin
