Date: Mon, 02 May 2005 04:23:16 -0500 From: Jonathan Atkins Subject: Re: [PATCH] *CRITICAL* 8bit direct RGB palette not being created I think that SDL_AllocFormat should create the palette for all 8bit surfaces. And when the RGBAmasks match the normal 3:3:2:0 we need to apply the old behavior. If the mask doesn't match that, then we need to make the right palette assuming the masks are valid (I don't think we validate any masks for high color surfaces...so we wouldn't here) Then there's always a palette available for the 8bit surfaces. This restores the normal behavior and allows for masks to create palettes automatically for odd masks even, which would be a neato thing to have in there, as SDL never did this before.

70 The \fBSDL_Event\fR union is the core to all event handling is SDL, its probably the most important structure after \fBSDL_Surface\fR\&. \fBSDL_Event\fR is a union of all event structures used in SDL, using it is a simple matter of knowing which union member relates to which event \fBtype\fR\&.

136 The \fBSDL_PollEvent\fP function take a pointer to an \fBSDL_Event\fR structure that is to be filled with event information\&. We know that if \fBSDL_PollEvent\fP removes an event from the queue then the event information will be placed in our \fBtest_event\fR structure, but we also know that the \fItype\fP of event will be placed in the \fBtype\fR member of \fBtest_event\fR\&. So to handle each event \fBtype\fR seperately we use a \fBswitch\fP statement\&.

142 We need to know what kind of events we\&'re looking for \fIand\fP the event \fBtype\fR\&'s of those events\&. So lets assume we want to detect where the user is moving the mouse pointer within our application\&. We look through our event types and notice that \fBSDL_MOUSEMOTION\fP is, more than likely, the event we\&'re looking for\&. A little \fImore\fR research tells use that \fBSDL_MOUSEMOTION\fP events are handled within the \fI\fBSDL_MouseMotionEvent\fR\fR structure which is the \fBmotion\fR member of \fBSDL_Event\fR\&. We can check for the \fBSDL_MOUSEMOTION\fP event \fBtype\fR within our \fBswitch\fP statement like so:

167 It is also possible to push events onto the event queue and so use it as a two-way communication path\&. Both \fI\fBSDL_PushEvent\fP\fR and \fI\fBSDL_PeepEvents\fP\fR allow you to place events onto the event queue\&. This is usually used to place a \fBSDL_USEREVENT\fP on the event queue, however you could use it to post fake input events if you wished\&. Creating your own events is a simple matter of choosing the event type you want, setting the \fBtype\fR member and filling the appropriate member structure with information\&.
