SDL_FillRect
Use this function to perform a fast fill of the given rectangle with color.
Syntax
int SDL_FillRect(SDL_Surface* dst,
const SDL_Rect* rect,
Uint32 color)
Function Parameters
dst |
the SDL_Surface containing the rectangle |
rect |
the SDL_Rect to fill, or NULL for the entire render target |
color |
the color to fill the rectangle with |
Return Value
Returns 0 on success or a negative error code on failure; call SDL_GetError() for more information.
Code Examples

Remarks
If rect is NULL, the whole surface will be filled with color. Move this up into the param?
The color should be a pixel of the format used by the surface, and can be generated by the SDL_MapRGB() *or SDL_MapRGBA()*functions. *If the color value contains an alpha value then the destination is simply "filled" with that alpha information, no blending takes place.
If there is a clip rectangle set on the destination (set via SDL_SetClipRect()), then this function will clip based on the intersection of the clip rectangle and the dstrect rectangle, and the dstrect rectangle will be modified to represent the area actually filled.
I suspect that this section is now defunct. The referenced function has no page in 1.3.
If you call this on the video surface (ie: the value of SDL_GetVideoSurface()) you may have to update the video surface to see the result. This can happen if you are using a shadowed surface that is not double buffered in Windows XP using build 1.2.9.
