Originally cogl_vertex_buffer_add_indices let the user pass in their own unique
ID for the indices; now the Id is generated internally and returned to the
caller.
It's now possible to add arrays of indices to a Cogl vertex buffer and
they will be put into an OpenGL vertex buffer object. Since it's quite
common for index arrays to be static it saves the OpenGL driver from
having to validate them repeatedly.
This changes the cogl_vertex_buffer_draw_elements API: It's no longer
possible to provide a pointer to an index array at draw time. So
cogl_vertex_buffer_draw_elements now takes an indices identifier that
should correspond to an idendifier returned when calling
cogl_vertex_buffer_add_indices ()
There were a number of functions intended to support creating of new
primitives using materials, but at this point they aren't used outside of
Cogl so until someone has a usecase and we can get feedback on this
API, it's being removed before we release Clutter 1.0.
Before any rendering is done by Cogl it needs to ensure the clip stack
is set up correctly by calling cogl_clip_ensure. This was not being
done for the Cogl vertex buffer so it would still use the clip from
the previous render.
Backface culling is enabled as part of cogl_enable so the different
rendering functions in Cogl need to explicitly opt-in to have backface
culling enabled. Cogl vertex buffers should allow backface culling so
they should check whether it is enabled and then set the appropriate
cogl_enable flag.
Adds missing notices, and ensures all the notices are consistent. The Cogl
blurb also now reads:
* Cogl
*
* An object oriented GL/GLES Abstraction/Utility Layer
Buffer objects aren't currently available for glx indirect contexts, so we
now have a fallback that simply allocates fake client side vbos to store the
attributes.
The cogl_is_* functions were showing up quite high on profiles due to
iterating through arrays of cogl handles.
This does away with all the handle arrays and implements a simple struct
inheritance scheme. All cogl objects now add a CoglHandleObject _parent;
member to their main structures. The base object includes 2 members a.t.m; a
ref_count, and a klass pointer. The klass in turn gives you a type and
virtual function for freeing objects of that type.
Each handle type has a _cogl_##handle_type##_get_type () function
automatically defined which returns a GQuark of the handle type, so now
implementing the cogl_is_* funcs is just a case of comparing with
obj->klass->type.
Another outcome of the re-work is that cogl_handle_{ref,unref} are also much
more efficient, and no longer need extending for each handle type added to
cogl. The cogl_##handle_type##_{ref,unref} functions are now deprecated and
are no longer used internally to Clutter or Cogl. Potentially we can remove
them completely before 1.0.
For convenience it is now valid to avoid a seperate call to
cogl_vertex_buffer_submit() and assume that the _draw() calls will do this
for you (though of course if you do this you still need to ensure the
attribute pointers remain valid until your draw call.)
This is useful because sometimes we need to get the current matrix, which
is too expensive when indirect rendering.
In addition, this virtualization makes it easier to clean up the API in
the future.
An assert to verify there was no error when generating a buffer object
for the vertex buffer API was being hit when running the GLES1 conformance
tests.
All GL functions that are defined in a version later than 1.1 need to
be called through cogl_get_proc_address because the Windows GL DLL
does not export them to directly link against.
Fixes some blending issues when using color arrays since we were
conflicting with the cogl_enable state + fixes a texture layer
validation bug.
Adds a basic textured triangle to test-vertex-buffer-contiguous.
- In cogl-material.h it directly sets the values of the
CoglMaterialLayerCombineFunc to some GL_* constants. However these
aren't defined in GLES 2 beacuse it has no fixed function texture
combining. Instead the CGL_* versions are now used. cogl-defines.h
now sets these to either the GL_* version if it is available,
otherwise it directly uses the number.
- Under GLES 2 cogl-material.c needs to access the CoglTexture struct
so it needs to include cogl-texture-private.h
- There are now #define's in cogl-gles2-wrapper.h to remap the GL
function names to the wrapper names. These are disabled in
cogl-gles2-wrapper.c by defining COGL_GLES2_WRAPPER_NO_REMAP.
- Added missing wrappers for glLoadMatrixf and glMaterialfv.
- Renamed the TexEnvf wrapper to TexEnvi because the latter is used
instead from the material API.
This glues CoglMaterial in as the fundamental way that Cogl describes how to
fill in geometry.
It adds cogl_set_source (), which is used to set the material which will be
used by all subsequent drawing functions
It adds cogl_set_source_texture as a convenience for setting up a default
material with a single texture layer, and cogl_set_source_color is now also
a convenience for setting up a material with a solid fill.
"drawing functions" include, cogl_rectangle, cogl_texture_rectangle,
cogl_texture_multiple_rectangles, cogl_texture_polygon (though the
cogl_texture_* funcs have been renamed; see below for details),
cogl_path_fill/stroke and cogl_vertex_buffer_draw*.
cogl_texture_rectangle, cogl_texture_multiple_rectangles and
cogl_texture_polygon no longer take a texture handle; instead the current
source material is referenced. The functions have also been renamed to:
cogl_rectangle_with_texture_coords, cogl_rectangles_with_texture_coords
and cogl_polygon respectivly.
Most code that previously did:
cogl_texture_rectangle (tex_handle, x, y,...);
needs to be changed to now do:
cogl_set_source_texture (tex_handle);
cogl_rectangle_with_texture_coords (x, y,....);
In the less likely case where you were blending your source texture with a color
like:
cogl_set_source_color4ub (r,g,b,a); /* where r,g,b,a isn't just white */
cogl_texture_rectangle (tex_handle, x, y,...);
you will need your own material to do that:
mat = cogl_material_new ();
cogl_material_set_color4ub (r,g,b,a);
cogl_material_set_layer (mat, 0, tex_handle));
cogl_set_source_material (mat);
Code that uses the texture coordinates, 0, 0, 1, 1 don't need to use
cog_rectangle_with_texure_coords since these are the coordinates that
cogl_rectangle will use.
For cogl_texture_polygon; as well as dropping the texture handle, the
n_vertices and vertices arguments were transposed for consistency. So
code previously written as:
cogl_texture_polygon (tex_handle, 3, verts, TRUE);
need to be written as:
cogl_set_source_texture (tex_handle);
cogl_polygon (verts, 3, TRUE);
All of the unit tests have been updated to now use the material API and
test-cogl-material has been renamed to test-cogl-multitexture since any
textured quad is now technically a test of CoglMaterial but this test
specifically creates a material with multiple texture layers.
Note: The GLES backend has not been updated yet; that will be done in a
following commit.
This better reflects the fact that the api manages sets of vertex attributes,
and the attributes really have no implied form. It is only when you use the
attributes to draw that they become mesh like; when you specify how they should
be interpreted, e.g. as triangle lists or fans etc. This rename frees up the
term "mesh", which can later be applied to a concept slightly more fitting.
E.g. at some point it would be nice to have a higher level abstraction that
sits on top of cogl vertex buffers that adds the concept of faces. (Somthing
like Blender's mesh objects.) There have also been some discussions over
particle engines, and these can be defined in terms of emitter faces; so some
other kind of mesh abstraction might be usefull here.
