34// FIXME: Currently, wxScreenDC doesn't work at all in non-exclusive mode
35// (DFSCL_NORMAL). In this mode, requesting primary surface results
36// in one of the following actions, depending on directfbrc
37// configuration:
38//
39// (1) if force-desktop, a surface is created and used as *background*
40// for the windows managed by DFB WM
41//
42// (2) otherwise, a dummy surface of the right size and format is
43// created, but isn't shown on the screen
44//
45// (3) furthermore, if autoflip-window option is not used and primary
46// surface is requested as single-buffered (which is needed to
47// implement wxScreenDC semantics), a warning is issued in addition
48// to 2); if autoflip-window is used, then a helper thread is
49// created and does periodic flipping, which is even worse
50//
51// 2) and 3) are obviously unsatisfactory. 1) isn't suitable either,
52// because wxScreenDC has to render *on top* of windows.
53//
54// In conclusion, wxScreenDC as currently implemented is only usable
55// for measuring things (e.g. font sizes). For this task, however, it
56// is quite expensive to create in DFSCL_NORMAL mode, because it
57// involves creation of a new surface as big as the screen.
58//
59// The surface, as obtained from GetPrimarySurface(), is double-buffered
60// for the sole purpose of silencing the warning from 3) above.
