sdl prob

[28poGNh0]

I think that the getpixel function (existed in sdl documentation) gets the color of the coordinate indicated by x and y

Uint32 getpixel(SDL_Surface *surface, int x, int y)
{
    int bpp = surface->format->BytesPerPixel;
    /* Here p is the address to the pixel we want to retrieve */
    Uint8 *p = (Uint8 *)surface->pixels + y * surface->pitch + x * bpp;

    switch(bpp) {
    case 1:
        return *p;

    case 2:
        return *(Uint16 *)p;

    case 3:
        if(SDL_BYTEORDER == SDL_BIG_ENDIAN)
            return p[0] << 16 | p[1] << 8 | p[2];
        else
            return p[0] | p[1] << 8 | p[2] << 16;

    case 4:
        return *(Uint32 *)p;

    default:
        return 0;       /* shouldn't happen, but avoids warnings */
    }
}

my problem is that, I want to compare it with the white/black color ,so how can I do that?

I tried this way but it does not work

int main(int argc,char *argv[])
{
    SDL_Init(SDL_INIT_VIDEO);

    SDL_Surface *screen = SDL_SetVideoMode(600,400,32,SDL_HWSURFACE|SDL_DOUBLEBUF);
    
    SDL_Event event;
    bool pass = true;
    
    SDL_Color color = {0,0,0};/// Black color
    if(color==getpixel(screen,0,0)
       pass = false;

    while(pass)
    {
        SDL_WaitEvent(&event);
        switch(event.type)
        {
        case SDL_QUIT:
            pass = false;
        break;
        }
    }

    SDL_FreeSurface(screen);
    SDL_Quit();

    return 0;
}

the error

C:\Documents and Settings\Techno01\Bureau\sdl\main.cpp|83|error: no match for 'operator==' in 'color == getpixel(screen, 0, 0)'|

Pretty much exactly what it says. SDL_Color has no operator== defined for it. You have to define what it means for one SDL_Color to equal another.

So how can I know that the color return by the getpixel function is white or any other color ?
can you help me with this one?
