[Mesa-dev] [PATCH 1/3] mesa: use GLsizeiptrARB, GLintptrARB in bufferobj.c

[Mathias Fröhlich]

Hi Brian,

> gl.xml doesn't seem relevant to this.  In GL/glext.h we have:
I thought that somewere at khronos the headers are
generated from the xml. And the new headers are usually
imported then together with the matching xml into mesa?

Uh, ok.
Thanks for the explanation!

Ok, yes I see now that khronos' version of the xml file changed the
data type already to khronos_uintptr_t. So, xml and headers are obviously
not always imported at the same time ...

Anyhow, thanks!

best
