Yes, if x8 is interpreted as "writes can write arbitrary data, reads must return 1" (as you said), then this is not necessary in resource_copy_region even if A8 -> X8 becomes supported.
You are right that format conversions would probably be better added as a separate function (if at all), in addition to the "reinterpret_cast" mechanism you proposed to add. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net Dev2Dev email is sponsored by: Show off your parallel programming skills.
