This is a good idea. How do I make a piddle of bytes 4 * $width * $height ?

At least you would have all the surface and piddle data
in the same spot which seems to be your difficulty here


This might be easier indeed, thanks.


  PDL $width = 640;

  PDL $height = 480;

  PDL $piddle = zeroes(byte,4,$width,$height);

  PDL ?vars
  PDL variables in package main::

  Name Type   Dimension   Flow  State  Mem
  
  $piddleByte D [4,640,480]  P1.17Mb

Hi

Ok I looked at get_dataref. But I still don't understand why the
surface-pixels is swaped out when a piddle is written. Both of the
Devel::Peek for the get_dataref and surface-get_pixels is the exact same.


get_dataref is a perl reference to the data section of
the piddle.  The surface-pixels is just a pointer to
the pixel data.  I see no copying of data in the code so
it doesn't seem like they should be the same.

I notice on the page you reference for the XS stuff that
there is a surface_new_from routine.  Have you tried
creating a piddle of data the size and structure of the
surface and then creating the desired surface from that?

At least you would have all the surface and piddle data
in the same spot which seems to be your difficulty here.

It is in Basic/Core in the PDL  directory.
The piddle data is in the string of the perl scalar.
That way it gets the advantage of the perl memory
allocation/freeing...

You can get a copy of the PDL source from CPAN
and that should explain things.

Hi David, Chris,

We have a go. I have managed to make a usable SDL + PDL piddle. I have
updated the repo with an example and docs.

http://github.com/kthakore/SDL_perl/blob/master/lib/pods/SDL/Cookbook/PDL.pod

http://github.com/kthakore/SDL_perl/blob/master/examples/cookbook/pdl.pl

:)

David you are up for PDL::SDL::Graphics. Join me on #sdl irc.perl.org if you
need help. Or just send and email to sdl-devel@perl.org

Regards,
Kartik Thakore
