.SH "NAME"
SDL_BlitSurface\- This performs a fast blit from the source surface to the destination surface\&.
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.PP
\fB#include "SDL\&.h"
.sp
\fBint \fBSDL_BlitSurface\fP\fR(\fBSDL_Surface *src, SDL_Rect *srcrect, SDL_Surface *dst, SDL_Rect *dstrect\fR);
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
This performs a fast blit from the source surface to the destination surface\&.
.PP
Only the position is used in the \fBdstrect\fR (the width and height are ignored)\&.
.PP
If either \fBsrcrect\fR or \fBdstrect\fR are \fBNULL\fP, the entire surface (\fBsrc\fR or \fBdst\fR) is copied\&.
.PP
The final blit rectangle is saved in \fBdstrect\fR after all clipping is performed (\fBsrcrect\fR is not modified)\&.
.PP
The blit function should not be called on a locked surface\&.
.PP
The results of blitting operations vary greatly depending on whether \fBSDL_SRCAPLHA\fP is set or not\&. See \fISDL_SetAlpha\fR for an explaination of how this affects your results\&. Colorkeying and alpha attributes also interact with surface blitting, as the following pseudo-code should hopefully explain\&.
.PP
.nf
\f(CWif (source surface has SDL_SRCALPHA set) {
if (source surface has alpha channel (that is, format->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
}\fR
.fi
.PP
.SH "RETURN VALUE"
.PP
If the blit is successful, it returns \fB0\fR, otherwise it returns \fB-1\fR\&.
.PP
If either of the surfaces were in video memory, and the blit returns \fB-2\fR, the video memory was lost, so it should be reloaded with artwork and re-blitted:
.PP
.nf
\f(CW while ( SDL_BlitSurface(image, imgrect, screen, dstrect) == -2 ) {
while ( SDL_LockSurface(image)) < 0 )
Sleep(10);
-- Write image pixels to image->pixels --
SDL_UnlockSurface(image);
}\fR
.fi
.PP
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\&.
