Date: Mon, 28 Jul 2003 18:30:50 +0300 From: "Mike Gorchak" Subject: New test for overlays While writting QNX Photon Overlay code I've found that the existent overlay test application is not enough, it performs too artificial tests - it always moves/resizes the overlay's viewport, but in the real life that happens very rare. So I decided to write new test (commonly base on testoverlay.c code) and called it testoverlay2 :) moose.dat - raw 8 bit paletted data of the small movie. (It was a moose.gif, also included in the attachment as reference, but not needed for this test, it is just for information). I cannot find, who created this .gif, so no credits this time :) But over inet I saw this gif zillion times, so I think we do not infringing somebody rights :)

.SH "NAME"
SDL_UpdateRects\- Makes sure the given list of rectangles is updated on the given screen\&.
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.PP
\fB#include "SDL\&.h"
.sp
\fBvoid \fBSDL_UpdateRects\fP\fR(\fBSDL_Surface *screen, int numrects, SDL_Rect *rects\fR);
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
Makes sure the given list of rectangles is updated on the given screen\&. The rectangles must all be confined within the screen boundaries (no clipping is done)\&.
.PP
This function should not be called while \fBscreen\fR is \fIlocked\fR\&.
.PP
.RS
\fBNote:  
.PP
It is adviced to call this function only once per frame, since each call has some processing overhead\&. This is no restriction since you can pass any number of rectangles each time\&.
.PP
The rectangles are not automatically merged or checked for overlap\&. In general, the programmer can use his knowledge about his particular rectangles to merge them in an efficient way, to avoid overdraw\&.
