[net.micro.atari16] DEGAS and objc_draw

wardlaw@hope.UUCP (Johnie Wardlaw) (07/07/86)

I have a question:

I have a 1040 ST and I use the Megamax C compiler.  What I want to do is
load in a DEGAS picture into memory and then copy parts of it into BITBLK
images that can be drawn using the objc_draw() routine.  I think that it
is reading in okay, but I can't be sure because it isn't putting anything
on the screen in ANY of the resolutions.  What I do is read the DEGAS file
into a 32000 byte character array (allocated with malloc()) and then
use type casting to read the bytes into the integer array.  I declared
each of my images as an OBJECT (not OBJECT *).  Could this be the problem?
I create the BITBLK record with malloc().  Nothing is drawn.  Any help
would be greatly appreciated!    Thanks in advance,
