Is BltFast supported in Windows Mobile DirectDraw?

Question

Can I get access IDirectDrawSurface5 on a WindowsMobile device so that I can access the BltFast method?

Answer 1

there is no IDirectDrawSurface5 interface in neither the Windows Mobile 5.0 (and above) reference nor in the ddraw.h header file of the Windows Mobile 6 SDK, nor is there a BltFast method. so no, you can not. you can use IDirectDrawSurface::Blt, though.

Answer 2

For the fastest blits and direct screen access on Windows Mobile, I would recommend using: PocketHal or the library which is built on top of that: Pocketfrog
