you need to do some masking and shifting. Well, you asked for it, here's
the code we use in DirectFB to blend 'color' with opacity 'a' to destination
pixel 'd' (RGB32). This code handles the red and blue channels in one
multiplication. The operation you asked for could be handled in a similar
fashion with two multiplications instead of four. Of course such
optimizations need to be properly benchmarked to see if they make sense.
__u32 __rb = (((color.r)<<16) | (color.b));
__u32 __g = ((color.g)<<8);
switch (a) {\
case 0xff: *(d) = (0xff000000 | __rb | __g); \
case 0: break; \
default: {\
__u32 pixel = *(d);\
__u16 s = (a)+1;\
register __u32 t1,t2; \
t1 = (pixel&0x00ff00ff); t2 = (pixel&0x0000ff00); \
pixel = ((((__rb-t1)*s+(t1<<8)) & 0xff00ff00) + \
((( __g-t2)*s+(t2<<8)) & 0x00ff0000)) >> 8; \
*(d) = pixel;\
}\
}
if you think this looks ugly, you should have a look at the same
function for RGB16 and RGB15 ;-)
Salut, Sven
