<p><strong>Note 1</strong>: Use <code>SDL_SWSURFACE</code> if you plan on doing per-pixel manipulations, or blit surfaces with alpha channels, and require a high framerate. 
When you use hardware surfaces (by passing the flag <code>SDL_HWSURFACE</code> as parameter), SDL copies the surfaces from video memory to system memory 
when you lock them, and back when you unlock them. This can cause a major performance hit. Be aware that you may request a hardware surface, 
but receive a software surface because the video driver doesn't support hardware surface. Many platforms can only provide a hardware surface 
when using <code>SDL_FULLSCREEN</code>. The <code>SDL_HWSURFACE</code> flag is best used when the surfaces you'll be blitting can also be stored in video memory.</p>
<p><strong>Note 2</strong>: If you want to control the position on the screen when creating a windowed surface, you may do so by setting the environment 
variables <code>SDL_VIDEO_CENTERED=center</code> or <code>SDL_VIDEO_WINDOW_POS=x,y</code>. You can also set them via <code>SDL::putenv</code>.</p>
<p><strong>Note 3</strong>: This function should be called in the main thread of your application.</p>
<p><strong>User note 1</strong>: Some have found that enabling OpenGL attributes like <code>SDL_GL_STENCIL_SIZE</code> (the stencil buffer size) before the video mode has 
been set causes the application to simply ignore those attributes, while enabling attributes after the video mode has been set works fine.</p>
<p><strong>User note 2</strong>: Also note that, in Windows, setting the video mode resets the current OpenGL context. You must execute again the OpenGL 
initialization code (set the clear color or the shade model, or reload textures, for example) after calling SDL::set_video_mode. In Linux, 
however, it works fine, and the initialization code only needs to be executed after the first call to 
<a href="#set_video_mode_width_height_bpp_flag">SDL::Video::set_video_mode</a> (although there is no harm in executing the initialization code after 
each call to <a href="#set_video_mode_width_height_bpp_flag">SDL::Video::set_video_mode</a>, for example for a multiplatform application). </p>

<p>On hardware that supports double-buffering, this function sets up a flip and returns. 
The hardware will wait for vertical retrace, and then swap video buffers before the next video surface blit or lock will return. 
On hardware that doesn't support double-buffering or if <code>SDL_SWSURFACE</code> was set, this is equivalent to calling 
<code>SDL::Video::update_rect( $screen, 0, 0, 0, 0 )</code>.</p>
<p>A software screen surface is also updated automatically when parts of a SDL window are redrawn, caused by overlapping windows or by 
restoring from an iconified state. As a result there is no proper double buffer behavior in windowed mode for a software screen, in 
contrast to a full screen software mode.</p>
<p>The <code>SDL_DOUBLEBUF</code> flag must have been passed to <code>SDL::Video::set_video_mode</code>, when setting the video mode for this function to

<p><strong>Note</strong>: If you want to swap the buffers of an initialized OpenGL context, use the function <code>SDL::Video::GL_swap_buffers</code> instead. </p>

flags can be an OR'd combination of these two options, one of these options or 0. 
If SDL_SRCALPHA is not passed as a flag then all alpha information is ignored when blitting the surface. 
The alpha parameter is the per-surface alpha value; a surface need not have an alpha channel to use per-surface alpha and blitting can 
still be accelerated with SDL_RLEACCEL.</p>
