SDL API Reference                                     SDL_Flip(3)



NAME
     SDL_Flip - Swaps screen buffers

SYNOPSIS
     #include "SDL.h"

     int SDL_Flip(SDL_Surface *screen);

DESCRIPTION
     On hardware that supports  double-buffering,  this  function
     sets up a flip and returns. The hardware will wait for vert-
     ical retrace, and then swap video buffers  before  the  next
     video  surface  blit  or  lock will return. On hardware that
     doesn't support double-buffering, this is equivalent to cal-
     ling SDL_UpdateRect(screen, 0, 0, 0, 0)

     The  SDL_DOUBLEBUF   flag   must   have   been   passed   to
     SDL_SetVideoMode, when setting the video mode for this func-
     tion to perform hardware flipping.

RETURN VALUE
     This function returns 0 if successful, or -1 if there was an
     error.
