SDL_gfx

Hey, guys.

What exactly is the SDL_gfx package? From what I can gather it’s a library
that allows to to create polygons. I could be wrong.

Also, does anyone know where I can download SDL_gfx for Mandrake 9.0 and
maybe a few examples of C code that utilises it and maybe a tutorial?

Thanks in advance.

Hey, guys.

What exactly is the SDL_gfx package? From what I can gather it’s a library
that allows to to create polygons. I could be wrong.

Seen on the libSDL.org “Libraries” pages:

SDL_gfx - A graphics primitive toolkit for SDL

:^)

Specifically, from the SDL_gfx home page:

The SDL_gfx library evolved out of the SDL_gfxPrimitives code which
provided basic drawing routines such as lines, circles or polygons and
SDL_rotozoom which implemented a interpolating rotozoomer for SDL
surfaces.

The current components of the SDL_gfx library are:

Graphic Primitives (SDL_gfxPrimitves.h) 
Rotozoomer (SDL_rotozoom.h) 
Framerate control (SDL_framerate.h) 
MMX image filters (SDL_imageFilter.h) 

Also, does anyone know where I can download SDL_gfx
for Mandrake 9.0 and

The website has RPMs. I’m not sure if they’ll work with Mandrake,
but probably:

http://www.ferzkopp.net/~aschiffler/Software/SDL_gfx-2.0/

maybe a few examples of C code that utilises it and maybe a tutorial?

Interface is described at the URL above.

There appears to be a “demos” RPM, which no doubt contains pre-compiled
demo/example code, which can probably be found right in the main source
".tar.gz" download!

This was extremely easy to find. I’m surprised you didn’t yourself! :^(

libsdl.org. Pretty stupid.

Thanks again.

Hehe - No problem. ;^) Sometimes the libsdl.org site looks a little
daunting.

Good luck!
