Ideally we want to move + towards this style of API in future with no global stacks. + » Most of the _EXP suffixes have been removed from the experimental + API symbols in the hope that the gtk-doc unstable annotation will + be enough to distinguish these. + » Add a COGL_DEBUG=winsys option + » CoglBuffer and CoglPrimitive now take an explicit CoglContext + argument in their constructor. We want to move towards getting rid + of the global context. + » Updates to the MSVC build support. + » Add cogl_pipeline_set_layer_null_texture(). This can be used for + base pipelines instead of having to create a dummy texture. + » Fix some bugs where Cogl was assuming there is a direct mapping + between the pipeline layer number and the GL texture unit number. + » In snippets, there are now always builtin sampler uniforms for + every layer of the pipeline. This makes it easier to write GLSL + that samples arbitrary units. + » The texture lookup snippet hook now gets passed the sampler for + the unit. The snippet can use this to sample the texture multiple + times. + » Some public constants for CoglPixelFormat have been removed + (COGL_UNPREMULT_MASK, COGL_UNORDERED_MASK and + COGL_PIXEL_FORMAT_{24,32}). + » 30-bit pixel formats added. + » COGL_DEBUG=wireframes now correctly renders primitives using + vertex shader snippets. + » cogl_framebuffer_swap_buffers and friends have been renamed to + cogl_onscreen_swap_buffers. + » If the experimental 2.0 API is requested, as far as possible the + headers for the 1.0 API are no longer included.
