Cogl has a different origin for texture coordinates than OpenGL so
that the results of rendering to a texture should leave the top of the
image at the texture coordinate 0,0 rather than the bottom. When a
GLES2 context is used to render to a Cogl texture via a CoglOffscreen
we don't really want the application to have to be aware of the
mismatch and flip the texture coordinates. To get that to work, this
patch now tracks all of the programs that the application generates
using the context and sneaks in an extra vertex shader with an
alternative main function. This main function multiplies the final
calculated gl_Position by a vector uniform which we can use to flip
the image. When the application uploads the source code for a vertex
shader we now replace any occurrences of the token 'main' with '_c31'
and this renamed function gets called from the replacement main
function. The token has a weird name so that it will be unlikely to
conflict with a variable name in the application's source but it also
needs to have the same number of characters as the original token so
that it won't affect column numbers in the error reporting.
We are also wrapping glGetShaderSource so that we can try to revert
the token name. The same goes for the error logs just in case the
error report mentions function names.
Both places that cause drawing to occur (glDrawElements and
glDrawArrays) are now also wrapped so that we can update the uniform
value whenever the program is used with a different type of
framebuffer from last time.
We additionally need to manually track the state for the viewport, the
stencil box and the front face because all of these will be affected
by whether we are flipping the image or not. Any attempts to change
these states will be queued and instead flushed at the last minute
before drawing.
There are still some known issues with this patch:
• glCopyTexImage2D and glCopyTexSubImage2D will do the wrong thing
when copying data from a CoglOffscreen. This could be quite fiddly
to solve.
• Point sprites won't flip correctly. To make this work we would need
to flip the gl_PointSprite builtin variable somehow. This is done in
the fragment shader not the vertex shader so flipping the calculated
gl_Position doesn't help here.
• The patch doesn't attempt to flip rendering to framebuffers for
textures created within the GLES2 context. This probably makes sense
because those textures are likely to be used within the GLES2
context in which case we want to leave the texture coordinates as
they are. However, if the texture is shared back out to Cogl with
cogl_gles2_texture_2d_new_from_handle then the texture will be
upside-down.
• The application can discover our secret uniform that we added via
glGetActiveUniform. It might be worth trying to disguise this by
wrapping that function although that could be quite fiddly.
