LiTE Code Snippets

Various examples of LiTE code that are either useful or shows a specific technique.

Fill LiteBox with a Specific Color
static DFBResult FillBox(LiteBox *box, DFBColor *color) {   DFBResult res = DFB_OK; IDirectFBSurface *s = box->surface;

res = s->SetColor(s, color->r, color->g, color->b, color->a); res = s->FillRectangle(s, box->rect.x, box->rect.y, box->rect.w, box->rect.h); res = s->Flip(s, NULL, 0); return res; }

Note that this will immediately call  and thus force the update. In case you want to collect all changes, do not call Flip at this instance. It's generally better to put code like this into your Draw callback for a LiTEBox and wait until it's called by a window update.
