Re: [JAVA2D] accelerated images

[Chet Haase]

Mike,

My major question is: does the flush() method on
java.awt.Image cause any accelerated data in the VRAM to
be flushed as well?
Yes, that's exactly what it does.  The original bits of
the image are retained, but if there is a cached version of
the image in VRAM, we release it when you call flush().
Note that we may grab the memory again at some later point
if we find you copying from the image again, but if
you do not use the image again then that VRAM should remain
free for other uses...
Chet.



This is a very exciting and promising enhancement and I
am hoping that more information will come out about how to
use it properly.
