[Qemu-devel] [Patch] Experimental Cocoa Video Driver

[Pierre d'Herbemont]

Hi!

Here is a early draft of a cocoa video driver for qemu, strongly based 
on libsdl. I don't know if I'll have time to finish it, so I am sending 
it to the qemu-devel.

I think it might be interesting for QemuX (or other Mac OS X frontend): 
the patch shows that the GUI can be run within Qemu process, that means 
that you can use qemu functions, think vm_stop or vm_start, directly 
from the GUI. Moreover it means also only one icon in the dock and one 
menu bar for Qemu,

To enable the cocoa driver, just use the --enable-cocoa option in 
configure. The driver is still not completed as it should, no full 
screen mode, no mouse event, and partial keyboard event, but that 
shouldn't be to difficult to add though.

Pierre.
