These files are the OpenGL ES render driver. You should be able to use them on any platform that supports OpenGL ES -- not just iPhone. The driver is based off the OpenGL render driver.
There are a few differences between OpenGL and OpenGL ES that present difficulties for this driver:
- OpenGL ES does NOT support many pixel formats (for example, no GL_BGR). Also, when using texture functions format and internalFormat must be the same -- this means 32 bit packed formats like SDL_PIXELFORMAT_BGR888 cannot be automatically converted to GL_RGB (which is 24bpp).
- OpenGL ES doesn't have GL_PACK_ROW_LENGTH, which means data must be reformatted before uploading changes to dirty rects. This change has been added.
- OpenGL ES doesn't support paletted textures, though there is an extension. I'm looking into this.
Some other notable differences:
- OpenGL ES has an extension called GL_OES_draw_texture which allows for quicker 2D sprite-type drawing. I use this in GL_RenderCopy when it is available. The iPhone supports the extension, but the iPhone Simulator does not (presently).
- No glBegin() / glEnd() and no GL_QUADS! I'm using glDrawArrays with GL_TRIANGLE_STRIP instead!

.TH "SDL_LockSurface" "3" "Tue 11 Sep 2001, 23:01" "SDL" "SDL API Reference" .SH "NAME" SDL_LockSurface \- Lock a surface for directly access\&. .SH "SYNOPSIS" .PP \fB#include "SDL\&.h" .sp \fBint \fBSDL_LockSurface\fP\fR(\fBSDL_Surface *surface\fR); .SH "DESCRIPTION" .PP \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\&. .PP 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\&. .PP No operating system or library calls should be made between lock/unlock pairs, as critical system locks may be held during this time\&. .PP 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\&. .PP .nf \f(CW \&. \&.
