Between calls to <TT CLASS="FUNCTION" >SDL_LockSurface</TT > and <TT CLASS="FUNCTION" >SDL_UnlockSurface</TT >, you can write to and read from <TT CLASS="PARAMETER" ><I >surface-><TT CLASS="STRUCTFIELD" ><I >pixels</I ></TT ></I ></TT >, using the pixel format stored in <TT CLASS="PARAMETER" ><I >surface-><TT CLASS="STRUCTFIELD" ><I >format</I ></TT ></I ></TT >. Once you are done accessing the surface, you should use <TT CLASS="FUNCTION" >SDL_UnlockSurface</TT > to release it.</P ><P >Not all surfaces require locking. If <TT CLASS="LITERAL" >SDL_MUSTLOCK</TT >(<TT CLASS="PARAMETER" ><I >surface</I ></TT >) evaluates to <SPAN CLASS="RETURNVALUE" >0</SPAN >, then you can read and write to the surface at any time, and the pixel format of the surface will not change. </P ><P >No operating system or library calls should be made between lock/unlock pairs, as critical system locks may be held during this time.</P ><P >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. <PRE CLASS="PROGRAMLISTING" > . .
