However, the OpenGL version actually provided can be up to 3.0. I'm not really sure what you're asking. If the create-context call (either EGL or GLX) does not specify a version, it is as though it specified 1.0. It follows that not specifying a version and requesting a forward-compatible context should generate an error. I think the GLX spec is pretty clear that BadMatch is generated. It is also quite clear that the error is based on the value of the explicitly or implicitly requested API version. * If attributes GLX_CONTEXT_MAJOR_VERSION_ARB and GLX_CONTEXT_MINOR_VERSION_ARB, when considered together with attributes GLX_CONTEXT_FORWARD_COMPATIBLE_BIT_ARB and GLX_RENDER_TYPE, specify an OpenGL version and feature set that are not defined, BadMatch is generated. The defined versions of OpenGL at the time of writing are OpenGL 1.0, 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, 1.5, 2.0, 2.1, 3.0, 3.1, and 3.2. Feature deprecation was introduced with OpenGL 3.0, so forward-compatible contexts may only be requested for OpenGL 3.0 and above. Thus, examples of invalid combinations of attributes include: - Major version < 1 or > 3 - Major version == 1 and minor version < 0 or > 5 - Major version == 2 and minor version < 0 or > 1 - Major version == 3 and minor version > 2 - Forward-compatible flag set and major version < 3 - Color index rendering and major version >= 3 Because the purpose of forward-compatible contexts is to allow application development on a specific OpenGL version with the knowledge that the app will run on a future version, context creation will fail if GLX_CONTEXT_FORWARD_COMPATIBLE_BIT_ARB is set and the context version returned cannot implement exactly the requested version. That is at least what I intended to implement in the GLX code. The language in the EGL extension is almost identical: * If an OpenGL context is requested and the values for attributes EGL_CONTEXT_MAJOR_VERSION_KHR and EGL_CONTEXT_MINOR_VERSION_KHR, when considered together with the value for attribute EGL_CONTEXT_OPENGL_FORWARD_COMPATIBLE_BIT_KHR, specify an OpenGL version and feature set that are not defined, than an EGL_BAD_MATCH error is generated. The defined versions of OpenGL at the time of writing are OpenGL 1.0, 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, 1.5, 2.0, 2.1, 3.0, 3.1, 3.2, 4.0, 4.1, 4.2, and 4.3. Feature deprecation was introduced with OpenGL 3.0, so forward-compatible contexts may only be requested for OpenGL 3.0 and above. Thus, examples of invalid combinations of attributes include: - Major version < 1 or > 4 - Major version == 1 and minor version < 0 or > 5 - Major version == 2 and minor version < 0 or > 1 - Major version == 3 and minor version < 0 or > 2 - Major version == 4 and minor version < 0 or > 3 - Forward-compatible flag set and major version < 3 Because the purpose of forward-compatible contexts is to allow application development on a specific OpenGL version with the knowledge that the app will run on a future version, context creation will fail if EGL_CONTEXT_OPENGL_FORWARD_COMPATIBLE_BIT_KHR is set and the context version returned cannot implement exactly the requested version. > In such case, your patch will fail to create forward-compatible context, > giving the "appropriate" error, while mesa before 86ccb2a1 will succeed. > Though both behaviors pass piglit. > > Any ideas?</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the QA Contact for the bug.</li> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
