annotate docs/man3/SDL_LockSurface.3 @ 1125:a6011e1394d9

Apparently MacOS X will sometimes pass command line arguments to a Cocoa app as an openFile() message, so we have to make sure we were launched from the Finder before accepting these as drag'n'drop documents, or they will just duplicate what's already in argc/argv.

11 \fBSDL_LockSurface\fP sets up a surface for directly accessing the pixels\&. Between calls to \fBSDL_LockSurface\fP and \fBSDL_UnlockSurface\fP, you can write to and read from \fBsurface->\fBpixels\fR\fR, using the pixel format stored in \fBsurface->\fBformat\fR\fR\&. Once you are done accessing the surface, you should use \fBSDL_UnlockSurface\fP to release it\&.

13 Not all surfaces require locking\&. If \fBSDL_MUSTLOCK\fP(\fBsurface\fR) evaluates to \fB0\fR, then you can read and write to the surface at any time, and the pixel format of the surface will not change\&.

15 No operating system or library calls should be made between lock/unlock pairs, as critical system locks may be held during this time\&.

17 It should be noted, that since SDL 1\&.1\&.8 surface locks are recursive\&. This means that you can lock a surface multiple times, but each lock must have a match unlock\&.
