Re: [pygame] PySDL2 0.5.0 released



Hi,

No criticism intended. I just went straight to installing and trying. I have Python 2.5 installed for Pygame testing, so gave it a try. I was really interested to see PySDL2 work with PyPy. If I understand correctly, the PyPy jit optimizes ctype calls, removing the performance hit found in CPython. Pygame does not port cleanly to PyPy, so PySDL2 is a good start in getting graphical support into PyPy.

Hi Marcus,

Well, your "Hello, World!" example
(http://pysdl2.readthedocs.org/en/latest/tutorial/helloworld.html) works
on Linux Mint with Python 2.7 (both CPython and PyPy versions) and
Python 3.3. It failed to install for Python 2.5, though.
This is intended (see
http://pysdl2.readthedocs.org/en/latest/install.html for the version
prerequisites).

Cheers
Marcus
