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.
- SDL_RWops is now an opaque struct.
- SDL_AllocRW is gone. If an app is creating a custom RWops, they pass the
function pointers to SDL_CreateRW(), which are stored internally.
- SDL_RWclose is gone, there is only SDL_DestroyRW(), which calls the
implementation's `->close` method before freeing other things.
- There is only one path to create and use RWops now, so we don't have to
worry about whether `->close` will call SDL_DestroyRW, or if this will
risk any Properties not being released, etc.
- SDL_RWFrom* still works as expected, for getting a RWops without having
to supply your own implementation. Objects from these functions are also
destroyed with SDL_DestroyRW.
- Lots of other cleanup and SDL3ization of the library code.
This reverts commit b9ab326982.
@rainerdeyke pointed out:
"This commit is incorrect. Flipping both horizontally and vertically is not equivalent to flipping diagonally."
Since SDL_RenderFlip is an enum, SDL_FLIP_HORIZONTAL and SDL_FLIP_VERTICAL can not be OR'ed to get the "SDL_FLIP_DIAGONAL".
Render code is actually able to perform these 3 kind of "flipping" so I just added a new enum called SDL_FLIP_DIAGONAL with the OR'ed value (3) so it can be used.
This better reflects how HDR content is actually used, e.g. most content is in the SDR range, with specular highlights and bright details beyond the SDR range, in the HDR headroom.
This more closely matches how HDR is handled on Apple platforms, as EDR.
This also greatly simplifies application code which no longer has to think about color scaling. SDR content is rendered at the appropriate brightness automatically, and HDR content is scaled to the correct range for the display HDR headroom.
We'll use properties for new data associated with a surface, which lets us preserve ABI compatibility with SDL2 and any surfaces created by applications and passed in to SDL functions.
The following objects now have properties that can be user modified:
* SDL_AudioStream
* SDL_Gamepad
* SDL_Joystick
* SDL_RWops
* SDL_Renderer
* SDL_Sensor
* SDL_Surface
* SDL_Texture
* SDL_Window
The current status is stored in the SDL_rwops 'status' field to be able to determine whether a 0 return value is caused by end of file, an error, or a non-blocking source not being ready.
The functions to read sized datatypes now return SDL_bool so you can detect read errors.

The destination rectangle passed to SDL_BlitSurface() and SDL_BlitSurfaceScaled() is non-const and filled in with the final destination rectangle after clipping, and now documented as such.
