A cffi-based SDL wrapper that copies the pygame API.

We copy various code and API ideas from pygame, so we inherit pygame's
LGPL v2.1, or later license.

Any pygame-cffi discussion welcome!

There is also the #pygame-cffi channel on irc.freenode.net

## Installation

1. Install the requirements listed below. On a Debian-based system, all
   requirements can be installed using `sudo apt-get build-dep pygame`
   (pygame_cffi requires most of the pygame dependencies).
2. `pip install pygame_cffi`

## Requirements

pygame_cffi requires a recent version of python-cffi to build (at least
version 1.3.0).

* libjpeg-dev
* libpng-dev
* libsdl1.2-dev
* libsdl-image1.2-dev
* libsdl-mixer1.2-dev
* libsdl-ttf2.0-dev

## Local Development

1. Install dependencies (probably in a virtualenv)
2. Run `cffi_builders/build.py`
3. Hack

## Running Tests

* Upstream pygame unit tests: `python -m test`
 * Tests that are known to fail on pygame_cffi are marked as expected
   failures. To see these failures, pass the `--expected-failures`
   argument.
* Conformance between pygame and pygame_cffi: See `conformance/README`
* pygame_cffi functionality example apps are in the `demos` directory

## Building on windows

To build on windows, you need to download the appropriate dependency libraries.
The ``pygame`` project provides all the required libraries in a nicely
bundled set, available from `https://bitbucket.org/llindstrom/pygame/downloads/`

For 32 bit machines, download the latest prebuilt-x86 zipfile and
unzip it under the pygame_cffi directory.

For 64 bit machines, download the latest prebuild-x64 zipfile and
unzip it under the pygame_cffi directory.

Then run python setup.py build to compile the modules.
