Date: Mon, 10 Oct 2005 13:09:32 +0300 From: Tommi Kyntola <tommi.kyntola@ray.fi> To: sdl@libsdl.org Subject: [SDL] [RFC] get_ticks broken on linux It uses gettimeofday to calculate the timedifference. Gettimeofday returns current time which is seldom monotonous. This breaks SDL timer subsystem. (time callbacks and all that get borked when the time difference ms is suddenly ~ 2^32) I posted a message about this earlier but got no response. Some thoughts on this matter would be appreciated. (Or even an explanation for the lack of interest.) A patch below would use the posix timers that have been around since posix 93 and do provide a good source of monotonous time on linux boxes (and on few others too). The following patch is also availabe at: http://www.hut.fi/u/tkyntola/SDL-1.2.9-clockfix.patch It's against 1.2.9, but I can easily rediffit against the cvs branch is needed. cheers, Tommi Kyntola tommi.kyntola@ray.fi

<PRE
CLASS="PROGRAMLISTING"

    if (source surface has alpha channel (that is, format-&#62;Amask != 0))
        blit using per-pixel alpha, ignoring any colour key
    else {
        if (source surface has SDL_SRCCOLORKEY set)
            blit using the colour key AND the per-surface alpha value
        else
            blit using the per-surface alpha value
    }
} else {
    if (source surface has SDL_SRCCOLORKEY set)
        blit using the colour key
    else
        ordinary opaque rectangular blit

><P
>If either of the surfaces were in video memory, and the blit returns
<SPAN
CLASS="RETURNVALUE"
>-2</SPAN
>, the video memory was lost, so it should be
reloaded with artwork and re-blitted:
<PRE
CLASS="PROGRAMLISTING"
>        while ( SDL_BlitSurface(image, imgrect, screen, dstrect) == -2 ) {
                while ( SDL_LockSurface(image)) &#60; 0 )
                        SDL_Delay(10);
                -- Write image pixels to image-&#62;pixels --
                SDL_UnlockSurface(image);
        }</PRE
>
This happens under DirectX 5.0 when the system switches away from your
fullscreen application.  Locking the surface will also fail until you
have access to the video memory again.</P
