Another regression from commit dca3fd8307,
which was a backport of commit de3909a190f6e1a3f11776ce42927f99b0381675
from SDL3 to SDL2. This time the regression is much less apparent,
however, due to two reasons:
- It only appears when the SDL project is ran on an actual device
due to magic stringage.
- More importantly, the regression was partially hidden due to
the nature of de3909a190f6e1a3f11776ce42927f99b0381675.
The commit which was backported added a single `I` to the JNI method
signature in `SDL_android.c`, representing the added `int axis_mask`
parameter. The parameter was added to both SDL2 and SDL3.
However, notably, that `I` was added *after* commit
fcafe40948fe308cc9552df5a3d625ee2725de5a, which removed the
`int nballs` parameter from the joystick API, but only from the SDL3
branch.
Therefore, in totality, what should really have been a merge conflict,
was obscured by the fact that the SDL3 branch ended up having
a net-identical JNI signature to the SDL2 branch, due to having
one bool param removed and one added - while, in fact, the SDL2 branch
needed one bool param added and none removed.
Simple DirectMedia Layer is a cross-platform development library designed
to provide low level access to audio, keyboard, mouse, joystick, and graphics
hardware via OpenGL and Direct3D. It is used by video playback software,
emulators, and popular games including Valve's award winning catalog
and many Humble Bundle games.
