cogl 1.7.8

About Cogl
==========

Cogl is a small open source software library for using 3D graphics
hardware to draw pretty pictures. 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. Cogl currently supports OpenGL ES 1.1/2.0 and OpenGL > 1.3 (or
1.2 if you have the GL_ARB_multitexture extension), and having Gallium
or D3D backends are options for the future.

  • List of changes since Cogl 1.7.6

   » Getters for the display and renderer associated with context
   » Getter for the number of supported texture units during fragment
     processing. (ClutterGst needs to know this for example to know if GLSL
     based YUV->RGB color space conversion can be used.)
   » Optimizations for the GLSL codegen for fragment processing so we can
     ignore redundant layers - if for example the "REPLACE" function is used
     for layer N then computing anything for previous layers is redundant. Also
     if texture combining needs to sample the same texture multiple times we
     now re-use the same sample instead of repeating it.
   » Optimize texture uploads to a texture atlas on GLES by avoiding lots of
     redundant format conversions.
   » Relax the requirement to need braces around blend factors when using the
     CoglBlendString syntax. Braces are only needed for factors involving a
     subtraction like "(1 - SRC_COLOR[A])"
   » Adds API for querying the format of a CoglFramebuffer
