Q: In the section on Regions of Inside Macintosh:Imaging With QuickDraw,
p.2-28 and 2-29, it says: "Region data is stored in a proprietary format." My
company is developing a 3D graphics accelerator card and we may need to know
about the format of a Region in order to do accelerated clipping as Regions are
used for clipping by RAVE. Is it possible for us the get the format of a
Region? If so, where can we find this information or what would be involved in
licensing its use?
A: Yes, the region structure is proprietary, and therefore is not publicly
available. You may want to contact Apple Software Licensing (SW.LICENSE on
AppleLink, or phone: 512 - 919-2645). You could also talk with your evangelist
contact about this.
