SDL_CreateTextureFromSurface

Use this function to create a texture from an existing surface.

Syntax

SDL_Texture* SDL_CreateTextureFromSurface(SDL_Renderer* renderer,
                                          SDL_Surface*  surface)

Function Parameters

renderer

the rendering context

surface

the SDL_Surface structure containing pixel data used to fill the texture

Return Value

Returns the created texture or 0 on failure; call SDL_GetError() for more information.

Code Examples

        Uint32 rmask, gmask, bmask, amask;

        /* SDL interprets each pixel as a 32-bit number, so our masks must depend
           on the endianness (byte order) of the machine */
        #if SDL_BYTEORDER == SDL_BIG_ENDIAN
                rmask = 0xff000000;
                gmask = 0x00ff0000;
                bmask = 0x0000ff00;
                amask = 0x000000ff;
        #else
                rmask = 0x000000ff;
                gmask = 0x0000ff00;
                bmask = 0x00ff0000;
                amask = 0xff000000;
        #endif

        SDL_Surface *surface = SDL_CreateRGBSurface(0, 640, 480, 32, rmask, gmask, bmask, amask);

    if(surface == NULL) {
        fprintf(stderr, "CreateRGBSurface failed: %s\n", SDL_GetError());
        exit(1);
    }


        SDL_Texture *texture = SDL_CreateTextureFromSurface(renderer, surface);

    if(texture == NULL) {
        fprintf(stderr, "CreateTextureFromSurface failed: %s\n", SDL_GetError());
        exit(1);
    }

        SDL_FreeSurface(surface);
        surface = NULL;

Remarks

The surface is not modified or freed by this function. The SDL_TextureAccess hint for the created texture is SDL_TEXTUREACCESS_STATIC.
