ANDROID_swap_rectangle allows to specify the rectangle affected by eglSwapBuffers(), anything outside of this rectangle is unchanged. in particular EGL_BUFFER_DESTROYED only applies to that rectangle. This extension as well as EGL_BUFFER_PRESERVED allow major optimizations on surfaceflinger, which can redraw only the dirty area during compositing.
However, ANDROID_swap_rectangle allows further optimizations in EGL by reducing the amount of copy-back needed. ANDROID_swap_rectangle is particularily important for software implementations.
- Currently the lock/unlock path is naive and is done for each drawing operation (glDrawElements and glDrawArrays). this should be improved eventually.
- factor all the lock/unlock code in SurfaceBuffer.
- fixed "showupdate" so it works even when we don't have preserving eglSwapBuffers().
- improved the situation with the dirty-region and fixed a problem that caused GL apps to not update.
- make use of LightRefBase() where needed, instead of duplicating its implementation
- add LightRefBase::getStrongCount()
- renamed EGLNativeWindowSurface.cpp to FramebufferNativeWindow.cpp
- disabled copybits test, since it clashes with the new gralloc api
- Camera/Video will be fixed later when we rework the overlay apis
This is just plumbing. The Java APIs existed already, but there were no C APIs to hook the Java APIs
up to. Now there are C APIs, so we can call them.
Of course, whether or not the C APIs actually work when you call them depend upon the
capabilities of the active OpenGL driver, which must be checked at run time.
Also, while we're here, make the glGetString method static. It was always supposed to be static,
but was accidentally implemented as non-static, because the code was copied from the non-static
OpenGL ES classes.
This adds a static OpenGL ES API.
Here are the three commit messages for the original changes:
Clean up trivial Eclipse warnings and fix whitespace.
Added @Override to overridden methods.
Removed unused imports.
Converted tabs to spaces.
Removed \r characters from end-of-lines.
Add .gitignore file to ignore the .class files that are
generated when the "gen" script is run.
This is the 2nd commit message:
Improve glgen
+ gen script is really a bash script rather than a sh script,
so declare that to be true. (For example, it uses pushd,
which is a part of bash, but not a part of sh. Not sure
how this worked until now. Possibly gen was only run in
environments where /bin/sh was really bash.
+ Check the results of the java compile of the code generator,
and abort the script if the compile fails.
+ Turn on the bash shell option that guards against using
uninitialized variables in the script.
+ Remove the generated class files.
Refactor JniCodeEmitter into two classes: a general-purpose
JniCodeEmitter and a specific Jsr239CodeEmitter. The hope is
to use JniCodeEmitter as a base for emitting static OpenGL ES
bindings.
This is the 3rd commit message:
Add an Android-specific static OpenGL ES 1.1 Java API.
This change adds four new public classes that expose a static OpenGL ES 1.1 API:
android.opengl.GLES10
android.opengl.GLES10Ext
android.opengl.GLES11
android.opengl.GLES11Ext
Benefits:
+ The static API is slightly faster (1% to 4%) than the existing Interface based JSR239 API.
+ The static API is similar to the C API, which should make it easier to import C-based
example code.
+ The static API provides a clear path for adding new OpenGL ES 1.1 extensions
and OpenGL ES 2.0 APIs, neither of which currently have a JSR standard.
Example:
import static android.opengl.GLES10.*;
...
glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT | GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT);
Note that it is possible to mix-and-match calls to both the static and JSR239 APIs.
This works because neither API maintains state. They both call through to the same underlying
C OpenGL ES APIs.
Implementation details:
This change enhances the "glgen" "gen" script to generate both the original JSR239 and
new static OpenGL ES APIs. The contents of the generated JSR239 classes remained the same as before,
so there is no need to check in new versions of the generated JSR239 classes.
As part of this work the gen script was updated to be somewhat more robust, and to
work with git instead of perforce. The script prints out commands to git add the generated files,
but leaves it up to the script runner to actually execute those commands.
