SDL_BlitSurfaceScaled() is more flexible and uses the SDL_SoftStretch() fast path when possible. Having two surface scaling APIs was confusing, especially when one of them has unexpected limitations.
This was originally to avoid duplicating clipping work in Maelstrom on a 486 computer. This has been confusing for users and computers are a little faster these days, so we'll make it work the way people expect.
Implemented using these sed commands on the headers:
sed -E -i'' '/SDLCALL|;/ s,([a-z])\* ,\1 *,g' *
sed -E -i'' 's,(\(.*[^\*])\* ([a-z])(.*\)),\1*\2\3,g' *
sed -E -i'' 's,\*const,* const,g' *
sed -E -i'' 's,\*SDLCALL,* SDLCALL,g' *
sed -E -i'' 's,void\(,void (,g' *
git checkout *gl*
The function can now convert between pixels of different formats, and takes a parameter to control whether the premultiplication is done in sRGB or linear space.
Also added SDL_PremultiplySurfaceAlpha(), which can premultiply the pixels of a surface in-place.
Applying these changes to external code doesn't actually improve anything, and within the context of the other Get* functions for renderers and surfaces, these stand out as outliers, so I'm going to back this change out.
SDL_Surface has been simplified and internal details are no longer in the public structure.
The `format` member of SDL_Surface is now an enumerated pixel format value. You can get the full details of the pixel format by calling `SDL_GetPixelFormatDetails(surface->format)`. You can get the palette associated with the surface by calling SDL_GetSurfacePalette(). You can get the clip rectangle by calling SDL_GetSurfaceClipRect().
SDL_PixelFormat has been renamed SDL_PixelFormatDetails and just describes the pixel format, it does not include a palette for indexed pixel types.
SDL_PixelFormatEnum has been renamed SDL_PixelFormat and is used instead of Uint32 for API functions that refer to pixel format by enumerated value.
SDL_MapRGB(), SDL_MapRGBA(), SDL_GetRGB(), and SDL_GetRGBA() take an optional palette parameter for indexed color lookups.
This isn't C++ code, so there's no need to append global symbols with two
colons. It looks ugly.
I _did_ leave them for actual C++ things in WinRT-specific comments and other
places, like a reference to a Perl class thing.
Also, even though it's not valid C, it's a useful expression to say
`StructType::SpecificField`, so I left those alone, too.
This is just stuff I noticed while working on the wikiheaders updates. A
thorough pass over all the docs would not be terrible, and maybe a simple
script to check for consistency (does everything have a `\since` on it? etc)
might be nice, too.
