- Fixes a leak in pen name allocation that would trigger
for both X11 and Wayland for some non-pen input devices
when new devices are added/removed.
- SDL_PenQuit() now deallocates and resets the table of known pens
- testautomation_pen.c now uses PenInit and PenQuit as setup and
teardown, respectively
testautomation_pen.c was already triggering the leak, and it is
visible with --trackmem, so no new tests are added.
xinput2_device_is_pen() was testing against default-zero values
in the X11 Atom cache on at least the first round of
detections, leading to imprecise detection.
The patch fixes two aspects of initialisation:
1. Ensure that the selector cache is always initialised in
xinput2_device_is_pen().
2. Ensure that all X11 Atoms used in SDL_x11pen.c are instantiated if
missing. This ensures that they are never None and avoids potential
failures to detect hot-plugged tablet devices.

initial fix
This patch adds an API for querying pressure-
sensitive pens, cf. SDL_pen.h:
- Enumerate all pens
- Get pen capabilities, names, GUIDs
- Distinguishes pens and erasers
- Distinguish attached and detached pens
- Pressure and tilt support
- Rotation, distance, throttle wheel support
(throttle wheel untested)
- Pen type and meta-information reporting
(partially tested)
Pen event reporting:
- Three new event structures: PenTip, PenMotion, and
PenButton
- Report location with sub-pixel precision
- Include axis and button status, is-eraser flag
Internal pen tracker, intended to be independent
of platform APIs, cf. SDL_pen_c.h:
- Track known pens
- Handle pen hotplugging
Automatic test:
- testautomation_pen.c
Other features:
- XInput2 implementation, incl. hotplugging
- Wayland implementation, incl. hotplugging
- Backward compatibility: pen events default to
emulating pens with mouse ID SDL_PEN_MOUSEID
- Can be toggled via SDL_HINT_PEN_NOT_MOUSE
- Test/demo program (testpen)
- Wacom pen feature identification by pen ID
Acknowledgements:
- Ping Cheng (Wacom) provided extensive feedback
on Wacom pen features and detection so that
hopefully untested Wacom devices have a
realistic chance of working out of the box.
- SDL_JoystickGUID -> SDL_GUID (though we retain a type alias)
- Operations for GUID <-> String ops are now in
src/SDL_guid.c and include/SDL_guid.h
- The corresponding Joystick operations delegate to SDL_guid.c
- Added test/testguid.c
