Following the spirit of extension-based functionality, the entrypoints
are available always but do something (i.e., call the actual WebGL API)
only if the extension is advertised. Which it is only on Emscripten
3.1.66+ because older versions don't have the corresponding entrypoints,
so there it's marked as disabled.
Additionally, EXT_polygon_offset_clamp is now also working on 3.1.66+,
but there's no wrapper for it yet.
The web isn't broken enough yet, apparently. Support for both of those
extensions was added in early 2020 (and I think I remember even seeing
them listed as supported in some browsers), one of them was renamed
mere two months later, one in January 2023.
And I discovered just by accident, the browsers *of course* don't even
bother advertising both to have some transition period. Or maybe that
transition period happened, for 3 weeks in January, and if some
developer didn't notice in that time, "it's their fault". Or maybe it's
my fault, for attempting to use an extension that was stuck in a "draft
status" for four years. THE WHOLE WEB IS EITHER IN A "DRAFT STATUS" OR
"DEPRECATED", THERE'S NOTHING IN BETWEEN, FFS!
Constant needless churn, UGH.
The GL::Renderer::setClearDepth() and setDepthRange() APIs now use the
non-clamping NV entrypoints if available. The float overloads do that
too, to avoid differences in behavior depending on whether these
functions are called with a float or a double type.
I need alpha to coverage for rendering line caps with MSAA, took it as
an opportunity to expose the other related features as well. Fun how I
survived 12+ years without needing those.
Instead of having them wrapped in extra functions for
extension-dependent functionality. The only case that stays is the line
width range implementation, as the raw variant looked too ugly /
dangerous otherwise.
Should make new things more discoverable, avoid confusion when a
documented API isn't there and reduce the need for maintaining multiple
separate versions of the docs.
Deprecated for 2018.04, it's been almost a year since. Whoever is using
Magnum regularly updated already, and who not can always upgrade
gradually (2018.02, 2018.04, 2018.10, 2019.01 etc.).
The Platform::*Application::Configuration class was split into
Configuration and GLConfiguration, the latter containing only
GL-specific configuration. Moreover, createContext() and
tryCreateContext() were renamed to create() / tryCreate().
There's now a constructor and a create() / tryCreate() overload taking
GLConfiguration and this will be later extended with VkConfiguration,
for example. GL-specific getters/setters from Configuration are now
marked as deprecated and merged into GLConfiguration during context
creation.
Everything has still hard dependency on GL, that will be done in the
next commits.
At the moment just the GL library itself w/o the tests, and without
backwards compatibility aliases. The following types were left in the
root namespace, despite being in the GL/ directory, as they will get
moved back soon:
* Image, CompressedImage and their dimensional typedefs
* ImageView, CompressedImageView and their dimensional typedefs
* PixelStorage
Not PixelFormat etc., that one will stay in the GL namespace and a
completely new PixelFormat enum will be provided in the root namespace.
Minimal updates (just the include guards) so Git is hopefully able to
detect the rename and track the history properly.
Everything except Magnum::GL doesn't compile now.
