Xegl lives!

[Matthew Tippett]

Although I am no OpenGL|ES expert, the khronos group has all the specs that
would be needed for confirmation of compliance.  Their website contains
positioning information as well.

The OES spec itself is discussed relative to OpenGL 1.5.  One non functional
issue is that the stand defines a fixed name that is -NOT- libGL.so, so
glitz would most likely have to dynamically load the appropriate library for
Xglx or Xegl purposes.   There is also a EGL spec as well.

Regards...  Matthew

What OpenGL interfaces does OpenGL have that OpenGL-ES doesn't? is
glitz targeted at OpenGL rather than OpenGL-ES, if I take a commerical
OpenGL-ES implementation and add the screen setup stuff will it work?

it's just something that popped into my head, does OpenGL-ES provide
full OpenGL interface and just add its own stuff like a glx/agl/wgl or
is it a modified OpenGL interface?

I'd hate to be calling our project egl when it is more egl-like than egl...

Dave.
