I used memcpy to get what I needed done.

SDL_LockSurface(surf1);
  memcpy(surf1→pixels, memory, bytes);
SDL_UnlockSurface(surf1);

Hopefully that'll help someone searching later.

Thanks to all who replied.

I ended up not using the vector but using the surface and a Uint8*

to achieve the same goal.

int imgSize = crpSurf1→pitch * crpSurf→h;
Uint8* image;
image = (Uint8*)malloc(imgSize);
image = (Uint8*)crpSurf→pixels;

It took some time because I look all over the net and tried di…

The creator of the Odin programming language has a fantastic series on custom memory allocators here: https://www.gingerbill.org/series/memory-allocation-strategies/​

Part 3 covers stack allocators, which are basically an arena with the ability to free the most recent allocation. This complicates th…

You're right, fixed! Thanks again.

I created a behavior tree system that is defined completely within c++.  

AI entities have a brain which spins up a behavior tree.

The nodes in the behavior tree are heap allocated, which I believe does have some noticeable performance cost.

The reason for this was to easily use virtual methods a…

When a DX11 application executes Map/Unmap with D3D11_MAP_WRITE_NO_OVERWRITE, is there a way to efficiently know which region of the provided buffer was modified?

I hooked all DX11 calls of “Heroes of the storm” game and made it playable on low-end machines.

Seems I wish ?

Yes, I got your idea, thank you!

Same, no experience with GoLang but C# a lot and here you have to differentiate between two kinds of allocations, byRef and byValue allocation. Classes are always stored as byRef types while structs may differe how they are used. If you declare a struct as a class member or even an array of structs…

Thank you all for the useful replies, this really helped. Salute!
