Framebuffer concept in QNX4.25  
Dear all,
Is there any framebuffer concept in QNX4.25?
We need to check if any graphics applications can be run in QNX4.25 without using Photon GUI toolkit support
and by accessing framebuffer directly.
We understood that QNX6.4.x supports SDL (libSDL) and using this we can get a framebuffer interface.
But is SDL supported in QNX4.25?

Thanking you,
Honey S

RE: Framebuffer concept in QNX4.25  
Dear Oleg,

Thank you for the information.
I shall check this possibility of using framebuffer with QNX 4.25 though I have to explore much in this direction. :(
Not fully understood what you are trying to point out as I am a newbie in this concept.
Can you also give some more pointers on how to configure Photon to use framebuffer or just give any references ?
(like links, QNX manuals so that I can refer them in more detail)

By the way, our exact requirement is to port a rendering engine with HTML 4 support to QNX 4.25.
One of the rendering engines under our analysis is having support for framebuffer front end.
We are just analyzing if such a software can be ported to QNX 4.25 by using framebuffer concept in QNX 4.25.
Is there any SDL support in QNX 4.25?
Do you think using framebuffer or using SDL in QNX 4.25 is comparatively easier.

Please share your valuable thoughts on our concern.

Thanks,
Honey S

HA: Framebuffer concept in QNX4.25  
Hello,

I’ll try to answer your question in general. I guess that the best way in your situation is use simple Photon PtRaw-
based application as a framebuffer. Many customers have choosed this option when they ported their framebuffer-based 
apps to QNX.

As for SDL. Personally I didn’t hear about any actual working SDL ports to QNX4.

Respectfully,
Oleg
