Fixed bug 4788 - macOS 10.14 (Mojave) opengl issues (SDL-1.2)
Murphy I don't build SDL apps on macOS myself, but two recent pieces of code I've written have run into this (or a related Mojave/SDL1.2 blank screen bug) for other users. I thought I'd share what I'd gleaned in case it's helpful. First, I notice the issue specifies OpenGL. Maybe that's a backend thing I'm not aware of or maybe there are multiple blank screen bugs related to Mojave, but this also occurs with applications that aren't (explicitly, anyway) doing anything with OpenGL. Second, the solution of building with an old SDK (e.g., the macOS 10.13 SDK from Xcode 10.1) resolves it (though it's a pain). Third, it looks like this came up in DOSBox-X and Jon Campbell patched the vendored SDL1.2 to fix it (I haven't tested this on my own applications). I'm not sure if there was an attempt to upstream this, but here's the commit and a related issue tracker entry where it's discussed: joncampbell123/dosbox-x@fdf6061 joncampbell123/dosbox-x#896 Fourth, lending credence to the idea that there may be multiple bugs at play here, some of the Mojave bug reports refer to a *black* screen, but others are less specific about "no video" or "blank screen" or the like. In the case of my applications, the result isn't black. It's light gray or something (possibly a default window background color?). [Fixed with patch by Alex Sirota]
