I've got some code that draws onto directfb surfaces by directly manipulating the pixel data for the surface. The surface is created with DSDESC_PREALLOCATED with the DFBSurfaceDescription preallocated structure filled in.
I'd like to perform some of the drawing operations using the (hardware accelerated) directfb functions, but most of the drawing will still be performed by manipulating the surface data directly. What do I have to do to ensure any directfb operations have completed before I can manipulate the surface data safely? Are there similar calls that need to be made in a multi-threaded environment? Currently the application uses mutexes to ensure that only a single thread uses the directfb API at a time (this appears to work), but if the operations are asynchronous then presumably this is not sufficient. -- Andrew Oakley _______________________________________________ directfb-dev mailing list directfb-dev@directfb.org http://mail.directfb.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/directfb-dev
