| PLEASE READ!!!! |
| |
| |
| |
| Introduction |
| ------------ |
| |
| Mesa uses an even/odd version number scheme like the Linux kernel. |
| Odd numbered versions (such as 6.3) designate new developmental releases. |
| Even numbered versions (such as 6.2) designate stable releases. |
| |
| |
| |
| New Features |
| ------------ |
| |
| GL_ARB_draw_buffers - allows a fragment program to write to a number of |
| separate color buffers, instead of just one. |
| |
| GL_OES_read_format - allows one to query the fastest glReadPixels format |
| and datatype. |
| |
| GL_ARB_pixel_buffer_object - buffer objects for pixel read/write functions. |
| |
| DirectFB driver, contributed by Claudio Ciccani. See docs/README.directfb |
| for details. |
| |
| |
| |
| Vertex/Fragment Program PRINT Instruction |
| ----------------------------------------- |
| |
| The GL_NV_vertex_program and GL_NV_fragment_program languages have been |
| extended with a PRINT instruction. |
| |
| |
| |
| To Do before release |
| -------------------- |
| Fix dinoshade bug |
| Switch to freeglut |
| Increase MAX_DRAWBUFFERS |
| driver hooks for BeginQuery/EndQuery |
| |
