If the app is in landscape mode and the user presses the power button, a pause
is followed immediately by a surfaceChanged event because the lock screen
is shown in portrait mode. This triggers a "false" resume.
So, we just pause and resume following the onWindowFocusChanged events.
Also, wait for SDL_APP_WILLENTERBACKGROUND and SDL_APP_DIDENTERBACKGROUND before
blocking the event pump.

The current version of SDL HG in Android doesn't do anything when volume keys are pressed.
The change makes SDL ignore volume keys so that they're handled by the OS and the sound volume can be changed within an app.
C++ is a bit of a minefield on Android. Much functionality still doesn't work, and Android can't decide on which C++ standard library to use, so it provides 3 different ones, all of which are incompatible with each other. (It looks like clang is coming too which will add a new compiler and a 4th standard library.)
As middleware, SDL might be distributed as a binary and intermixed with other projects already using C++. If C++ is intermixed in a bad way, bad things will happen. Removing dependencies on C++ will avoid this problem and downstream users won't have to worry/care.

SDL's Android project template has old default icons from Android while iOS project template has custom icons with SDL's logo.
There is a Wizard in the Android Developer Tools to create "Android Icon Sets". As an example I created icons from the iOS loading screen and attached them in a ZIP archive. They are named "ic_launcher.png" instead of "icon.png" because that is the new name used in Android projects. To use them the AndroidManifest.xml needs to be changed to have "@drawable/ic_launcher" instead of "@drawable/icon". I do not know why there was no icon created for ldpi. Maybe it is deprecated.

In SDL HG (2.0) the pixel format constants in
android-project/src/org/libsdl/app/SDLActivity.java seem to have gone out of
sync with include/SDL_pixels.h in HG rev b1124b32b07d.
E.g., at a glance it seems like 0x85151002 should have become 0x15151002.

Please remove local.properties from android-project folder and add it to hgignore
According to the local.properties:
# This file must *NOT* be checked in Version Control Systems,
ny00@outlook.com
Let me quote the following opening tag from
android-project/AndroidManifest.xml:
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
<!-- Replace org.libsdl.app with the identifier of your game, e.g.
com.gamemaker.game
-->
package="org.libsdl.app"
android:versionCode="1"
android:versionName="1.0"
android:installLocation="auto">
The comment (with the text "Replace org.libsdl.app with...") seems to be a
cause of troubles. Here are a few examples I've spotted:
1) While using nkd-build from android-ndk-r8d, I receive the following error:
Invalid attribute name: <!-- replace org.libsdl.app with the identifier of your
game, e.g.
com.gamemaker.game
--
/home/ny00123/util/android-ndk-r8d/build/gmsl/__gmsl:512: *** non-numeric
second argument to `wordlist' function: ''. Stop.
2) Repeating this but with android-ndk-r6b (an earlier revision), it reduces to
a warning and actual complication is not halted.
3) Following the instructions in README.android and using Eclipse (from a
recently downloaded ADT Bundle), I cannot seem to be able to create an Android
project from existing sources (one of the SDL test apps for now).
* On a side note, I can't find where I may choose the "Build Target" before
clicking "Finish", but it does not seem to be related to this bug report.
Anyway, following the choice of the project path and a click on "Finish",
nothing seems to occur.
If I rather do so after removing the above comment from AndroidManifest.xml,
though, the project appears on Eclipse as expected once I click on "Finish".

SDL does not use values set with SDL_GL_SetAttribute on Android.
I attached a patch which adds this functionality and makes it possible to set
(for example) depth buffer size or anti-aliasing in the actual application
instead of modifying the Java source (which seems currently the only way).
The functions to show/hide/toggle the on-screen keyboard have been folded into the text input state.
Calling SDL_StartTextInput() will automatically show the on-screen keyboard if it's available.
Calling SDL_StopTextInput() will automatically hide the on-screen keyboard if it's available.
There is a new API function SDL_IsTextInputActive() which will return whether text input is currently active.
Text input is disabled by default, you must call SDL_StartTextInput() when you are ready to accept text input.
SDL_HasScreenKeyboardSupport() no longer needs to be passed a window.
The iPhone-specific on-screen keyboard functions have been removed.
