This adds the following new public experimental functions to set
uniform values on a CoglPipeline:
void
cogl_pipeline_set_uniform_1f (CoglPipeline *pipeline,
int uniform_location,
float value);
void
cogl_pipeline_set_uniform_1i (CoglPipeline *pipeline,
int uniform_location,
int value);
void
cogl_pipeline_set_uniform_float (CoglPipeline *pipeline,
int uniform_location,
int n_components,
int count,
const float *value);
void
cogl_pipeline_set_uniform_int (CoglPipeline *pipeline,
int uniform_location,
int n_components,
int count,
const int *value);
void
cogl_pipeline_set_uniform_matrix (CoglPipeline *pipeline,
int uniform_location,
int dimensions,
int count,
gboolean transpose,
const float *value);
These are similar to the old functions used to set uniforms on a
CoglProgram. To get a value to pass in as the uniform_location there
is also:
int
cogl_pipeline_get_uniform_location (CoglPipeline *pipeline,
const char *uniform_name);
Conceptually the uniform locations are tied to the pipeline so that
whenever setting a value for a new pipeline the application is
expected to call this function. However in practice the uniform
locations are global to the CoglContext. The names are stored in a
linked list where the position in the list is the uniform location.
The global indices are used so that each pipeline can store a mask of
which uniforms it overrides. That way it is quicker to detect which
uniforms are different from the last pipeline that used the same
CoglProgramState so it can avoid flushing uniforms that haven't
changed. Currently the values are not actually compared which means
that it will only avoid flushing a uniform if there is a common
ancestor that sets the value (or if the same pipeline is being flushed
again - in which case the pipeline and its common ancestor are the
same thing).
The uniform values are stored in the big state of the pipeline as a
sparse linked list. A bitmask stores which values have been overridden
and only overridden values are stored in the linked list.

DESCRIPTION
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cogl is a small open source library for using 3D graphics hardware for
rendering. The API departs from the flat state machine style of OpenGL and is
designed to make it easy to write orthogonal components that can render without
stepping on each others toes.
As well as aiming for a nice API, we think having a single library as opposed
to an API specification like OpenGL has a few advantages too; like being
able to paper over the inconsistencies/bugs of different OpenGL
implementations in a centralized place, not to mention the myriad of OpenGL
extensions. It also means we are in a better position to provide utility
APIs that help software developers since they only need to be implemented
once and there is no risk of inconsistency between implementations.
Having other backends, besides OpenGL, such as drm, Gallium or D3D are
options we are interested in for the future.

REQUIREMENTS
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cogl currently only requires:
• GLib ≥ @GLIB_REQ_VERSION@
• OpenGL ≥ 1.3 (or 1.2 + multitexturing), or OpenGL ES 2.0 (or 1.1)
• GLX, AGL, WGL or an EGL implementation
Cogl also has optional dependencies:
• GDK-Pixbuf ≥ @GDK_PIXBUF_REQ_VERSION@
- for image loading
• Cairo ≥ @CAIRO_REQ_VERSION@
- for debugging texture atlasing (debug builds only)
The optional Cogl Pango library requires:
• Cairo ≥ @CAIRO_REQ_VERSION@
• PangoCairo ≥ @PANGOCAIRO_REQ_VERSION@
On X11, Cogl depends on the following extensions
• XComposite ≥ @XCOMPOSITE_REQ_VERSION@
• XDamage
• XExt
• XFixes ≥ @XFIXES_REQ_VERSION@
When running with OpenGL, Cogl requires at least version 1.3
or 1.2 with the multitexturing extension. However to build Cogl
you will need the latest GL headers which can be obtained from:
http://www.khronos.org
If you are building the API reference you will also need:
• GTK-Doc ≥ @GTK_DOC_REQ_VERSION@
If you are building the additional documentation you will also need:
• xsltproc
• jw (optional, for generating PDFs)
If you are building the Introspection data you will also need:
• GObject-Introspection ≥ @GI_REQ_VERSION@
GObject-Introspection is available from:
git://git.gnome.org/gobject-introspection
If you want support for profiling Cogl you will also need:
• UProf ≥ @UPROF_REQ_VERSION@
UProf is available from:
git://github.com/rib/UProf.git

DOCUMENTATION
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The API references for the latest stable release are available at:
http://docs.clutter-project.org/docs/cogl/stable/
The experimental 2.0 API can be found here:
http://docs.clutter-project.org/docs/cogl-2.0-experimental/stable/
Note: The confusing "stable" at the end refers to the overall Cogl release
status, not the documentation specifically.

BUILDING AND INSTALLATION
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Please refer to the INSTALL document.
--
BUGS
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Please report bugs here:
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=cogl
You will need a Bugzilla account.
Please include the following in bug reports:
• what system you're running Cogl on;
• which version of Cogl you are using;
• which version of GLib and OpenGL (or OpenGL ES) you are using;
• which video card and which drivers you are using, including output of
glxinfo and xdpyinfo (if applicable);
• how to reproduce the bug.
If you cannot reproduce the bug with one of the tests that come with
Cogl's source code, it can help a lot to include a small test case
displaying the bad behaviour.
If the bug exposes a crash, the exact text printed out and a stack trace
obtained using gdb are greatly appreciated.

CONTRIBUTING
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The CODING_STYLE file describes the coding style we use throughout Cogl,
please try your best to conform to this style because the consistency
really helps keep the code maintainable.
We can accept contributions in several ways:
• Either as patches attached to bugs on bugzilla
- For this you may be interested in using git-bz.
See http://git.fishsoup.net/man/git-bz.html for details
• You can email us patches
- For this we recommend using git-send-email
• You can create a remote branch and ask us to pull from that for more
substantial changes.
- For this we recommend using github.
Ideally standalone patches should be created using git format-patch since
that makes it easiest to import the patch with a commit message into a
git repository.
