It is superseded by core functionality. The only annoyance is that you
need to use TextureFormat::SRGB in ES2 and TextureFormat::SRGB8 in ES3,
but that's with many other formats anyway. Also apparently the unsized
format is still allowed in core desktop GL, which is a shame.
For more clarity it's now better to explicitly list all extensions for
each API even though they might get duplicated. For WebGL they also link
to WebGL spec, which might contain a bit more info.
This was the actual problem. Most of ES extensions are not available in
WebGL, thus the GL headers and the code was far more bloated than it
needed to be. The GL header is now reduced and the previous 13 commits
were disabling features that aren't actually available in WebGL.
The final executable size is reduced by ~50 kB, which actually isn't
much, but still something.
Some ES extensions (ANGLE_depth_texture and ANGLE_instanced_arrays) have
now WEBGL_* prefix. I'm still using the original prefix in the
implementation because there are headers for these, but in public docs
and elsewhere they are exposed with WEBGL_*.
In OpenGL ES 2.0 there is EXT_draw_buffers, which I overlooked somehow,
so I added it to extension list and included in the implementation. It
combines NV_draw_buffers and NV_fbo_color_attachments, so the
implementation now selects one of the two based on which extension is
supported, preferring the EXT one. Updated the documentation to be
less confusing, fixed extension links. Also the single-output
mapForDraw() is not handled separately on ES anymore and just calls
DrawBuffers implementation with single parameter, resulting in less
generated code.
EXT_draw_buffers can also be called on default framebuffer and
apparently in ES there is no way to map front framebuffer for drawing,
so I removed it from the DefaultFramebuffer::DrawAttachment enum.
Had to rework the API a bit, the original one (everything through
DebugMessage) should be still available, but marked as deprecated (and
will be removed in some future release).
The whole cycle of reading up on a feature, understanding the feature,
understanding the bigger concept under the feature and then having
understood everything so thoroughly so I can document the functionality
is time consuming.
Full support for EXT_transform_feedback, transform feedback objects
from ARB_transform_feedback2 and equivalent OpenGL ES 3.0 functionality.
Example usage is in src/Magnum/Test/TransformFeedbackGLTest.cpp, I'll
add some example later.
Hell, this extension (and EXT_sRGB on ES) is written in so complicated
language that I'm not sure at all if I understood it right and
implemented completely.
According to reports on delphigl.de this extension is far more supported
in comparison to the NV version (and also there's much less FF cruft in
the specification).
The indexed binding is allowed for only some types (atomic counters,
uniforms, shader storage and transform feedback), thus we need separate
enum for that. Because the bind() function will be used far more often
than setTargetHint(), the original Target enum is now renamed to
TargetHint and the new Target enum contains (in non-deprecated build)
only three values.
For backwards compatibility, though, we need to have all original Target
values, thus the new Target enum contains also all other values from
TargetHint, but they are marked as deprecated and (at least) run-time
checked in bind() so they aren't accidentaly used for indexed binding.
Similarly there are also deprecated Target overloads of Buffer() and
setTargetHint(). It's ugly, but hopefully will suffice for now. This mess
will be removed as soon as possible in some upcoming version.
In OpenGL ES this is implemented in EXT_multi_draw_arrays extension, if
it is not available, the functionality is emulated using sequence of
normal draw() calls.
Functionality provided by GL 3.3 and ARB_instanced_arrays, on ES2 this
is again implemented in three different extensions --
{ANGLE,EXT,NV}_instanced_arrays. They are disabled until Magnum has
proper extension loading on ES.
On desktop GL this is provided by ARB_draw_instanced (GL 3.1). Base
instance is available only on desktop GL (4.2, ARB_base_instance). In
ES2 the instanced functionality is provided by three (!) different
extensions (ANGLE_instanced_arrays, EXT_draw_instanced,
NV_draw_instanced), the proper implementation is chosen on context
creation based on what extension is available. Though we don't have
extension loader for ES yet, thus all these extensions are disabled and
the implementation has assertion in it.
Added blind test which tests only that something has been drawn and no
errors were emitted, but not whether the right command is used. I'll
probably need to check this later, because the Mesh::draw() behemoth is
going slightly out of hand :)
