Should the iOS demos be removed?

Open icculus opened this issue 3 years ago • 3 comments

Should the iOS demos be removed (https://github.com/libsdl-org/SDL/tree/main/Xcode-iOS/Demos)? Cross-platform SDL test programs already exist and I think the iOS demos have historically been less maintained than most other parts of SDL.

(I'm not sure if this was brought up already but I couldn't find it in a short search at least.)

They're actually pretty interesting demos, and one of them shows how to use the accelerometer, which isn't demoed anywhere else. I think we can leave them for now.

I'll leave it open so we can think about this later.

Fair enough. The accelerometer demo will have to change or be removed if/when accelerometer joysticks are removed, maybe some of the demos could be updated to be more cross-platform test apps around that time?

Sure.

I suppose https://github.com/libsdl-org/SDL/commit/1d80082e8e08ed66294371818f03f32aa5072dcd resolves this.
