NAME

SDL::GFX::Primitives - basic drawing functions

CATEGORY

GFX

DESCRIPTION

All functions take an SDL::Surface object as first parameter. This can be a new surface that will be blittet afterwads, can be an surface obtained by SDL::Video::set_video_mode or can be an SDLx::App.

The color values for the _color functions are 0xRRGGBBAA (32bit), even if the surface uses e. g. 8bit colors.

METHODS

pixel

 int SDL::GFX::Primitives::pixel_color( $surface, $x, $y, $color );
 int SDL::GFX::Primitives::pixel_RGBA(  $surface, $x, $y, $r, $g, $b, $a );

Draws a pixel at point x/$y. You can pass the color by 0xRRGGBBAA or by passing 4 values. One for red, green, blue and alpha.

set_font

 void SDL::GFX::Primitives::set_font(fontdata, $cw, $ch );

The fontsets are included in the SDL_gfx distribution. Check http://www.ferzkopp.net/joomla/content/view/19/14/ for more.

Example:

 my $font = '';
 open(FH, '<', 'data/5x7.fnt');
 binmode(FH);
 read(FH, $font, 4096);
 close(FH);

 SDL::GFX::Primitives::set_font($font, 5, 7);
