(as opposed to telling the wserv through IPC, that it should blit your bitmap to the screen as in above)<br /><br />DSA can though be tricky to get right though, and could also interfere with other stuff in the phone wanting to use DSA. <br /><br />I recommend the first solution, and it should be enough for almost all applications.<br />performance difference is not much compared to DSA as long as you don&#039;t rewrite your blitting routines to something faster then what is normally given by CFbsBitGc.<br />Or if you have a render engine that can draw regions and not only rects, you could also gain some on skipping the copying totally and draw directly too screen.<br />Though, this has also implications, somtimes (depening on what you draw and how, and how caches are configured) it might be faster to draw to a bitmap and copy to screen, then do draw to screen.<br /><br />All these above methods does though have one problem in common: Tearing.<br /><br />If you want to get rid of tearing too, you have no choice but to use CDirectScreenBitmap.<br />CDirectScreenBitmap is supposed to be used with DSA, though you will notice that the DSB interface isn&#039;t really compatible with DSA and regions, just rects..&nbsp; But as long as you only draw fullscreen or in a rect it is usable. Also, there is issues in getting the framerate over 18fps, without some advanced active object programming...<br /><br />Good luck <img src="/en/sites/all/modules/smf_filter/smf_smileys/smiley.gif" alt="Smiley" border="0" /></div> Thu, 15 Mar 2007 17:06:28 +0100 alh comment 38059 at http://www.newlc.com http://www.newlc.com/en/topic-17920 <div class="smf-content"></div><p><a href="http://www.newlc.com/en/topic-17920">read more</a></p> http://www.newlc.com/en/topic-17920#comments Symbian C++ Thu, 15 Mar 2007 15:58:26 +0100 rensijie 17416 at http://www.newlc.com
