say i have this definition: 1 typedef struct SDL_Surface { 2 Uint32 flags; /* Read-only */ 3 SDL_PixelFormat *format; /* Read-only */ 4 int w, h; /* Read-only */ 5 Uint16 pitch; /* Read-only */ 6 void *pixels; /* Read-write */ 7 SDL_Rect clip_rect; /* Read-only */ 8 int refcount; /* Read-mostly */ 9 10 /* This structure also contains private fields not shown here */ 11 } SDL_Surface;
notice two pointers, format and pixels. say format has this definition. 1 typedef struct { 2 SDL_Palette *palette; 3 Uint8 BitsPerPixel; 4 Uint8 BytesPerPixel; 5 Uint8 Rloss, Gloss, Bloss, Aloss; 6 Uint8 Rshift, Gshift, Bshift, Ashift; 7 Uint32 Rmask, Gmask, Bmask, Amask; 8 Uint32 colorkey; 9 Uint8 alpha; 10 } SDL_PixelFormat; so say i want to create a mock sdl handle and pass it to some library function that requires an sdl handle. (would it even work? would i need to use an SDL_SWSURFACE?) so i make the pixelformat data using struct.pack, and make the surface data using struct.pack, but how do i link the surface data to the pixelformat data? if i just use id() it'll give me the memory address of the "box" for the string and not the string data itself. thanks. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
