Subject: [SDL] SDL_Flip()


The game I am working on has a game loop that does SDL_PollEvent to check
for key presses, then draws a background image, draws about 72 pieces, and
then draws a selector.  The problem is that it flickers very badly.  I don't
know how to explain it but it is a very very fast flicker.

I saw a tutorial that used SDL_Flip() and so I put that in there and it
makes no difference.  I have SDL_DOUBLEBUF set and SDL_Flip() is returning 0
every time.

How do you prevent the flickering when it redrawing so fast?
