[XForms] FL_PACK Question.

[Serge Bromow]

Hello to All,

I have used the FL_PACK macro for years to convert R,G,B values to unsigned long decimal for use with XSetWindowBackground.

All of a sudden it no longer works. Possibly as a result of moving to a 64bit OS. When I look at the definition in forms.h It appears the Red and Blue colour shift values are revered. i.e;

#define FL_RMASK           0x000000ff
#define FL_RSHIFT          0
#define FL_GMASK           0x0000ff00
#define FL_GSHIFT          8
#define FL_BMASK           0x00ff0000
#define FL_BSHIFT          16

I believe it should be;

#define FL_RMASK           0x00ff0000
#define FL_RSHIFT          16
#define FL_GMASK           0x0000ff00
#define FL_GSHIFT          8
#define FL_BMASK           0x000000ff
#define FL_BSHIFT          0

Am I missing something?

For the moment I am using;

decimal_colour = (r << 16) + (g << 8) + (b);

Thanks,

Serge
