Accelerated Surface v0.96

Accelerated Surface

New version 0.96:
- I use now a hardware layer (it solves issues with some devices);
- I added the Update event and the StartRegularUpdateAndDraw function;
- I added three functions: AlterColors, DrawArcWithTexture, and DrawTextWithTexture;
- I added a game: Space Enemies.

For animations, the Draw event is sufficient, but for games, it is better to have a separate Update event to compute moves and detect collisions. If you use the new function "StartRegularUpdateAndDraw", a timer is going to trigger regularly the Update event, then the Draw event.

UltimateListView

This new version includes a long-awaited feature: drag & drop. You can choose between an internal drag & drop, to reorder the items, and an external drag & drop, to send an item to another view.
There's also a new example demonstrating how to detect and handle swipe gestures to add new ways of using the list.

I used a mass emailing software this time to notify all my users. I hope that everything went well and that everyone has received the mail.

For new users, NineOldAndroid is still offered for free until mid-april (with the Java source code included).
