WindML Driver for Mesa 3.5
Requirements
------------
Tornado 2 + WindML, Cumulative Patchs are recommended.
I suppose you have a valid WindML installation. Double buffer hardware
gives better performance than double buffer software so if you can
compile your WindML driver with this option, just do it. I/O
redirection is adviced in target server.
Tested on
---------
During the development, my main target was a CoolMonster:
- Video card: CT69000
- CPU: PENTIUM 266MHz
and my host a Windows NT + Tornado 2.
Installation
------------
1. Mesa sources must be in root directory (C:\)
2. Add the following line to your torVars.bat:
set MESA_BASE=C:\Mesa
OR copy the new torVars.bat in your bin path:
c:/Mesa/src/ugl/tornado/torVars.sample ->
/mnt/nt/Tornado/host/x86-win32/bin/torVars (for example)
3. In a command prompt:
$ torVars
$ cd c:\Mesa
$ make -f Makefile.ugl CPU=PENTIUM
Take a long while...
5. Include all the files from ugldemos folder to build some downloadable
application modules
4. Download UGL/Mesa object files on target
For example via the WindShell:
ld < c:\Tornado\target\lib\objMesaGL.o
ld < c:\Tornado\target\lib\objMesaUGL.o
ld < c:\Tornado\target\lib\objMesaGLU.o
ld < c:\Tornado\target\lib\objGLUTshapes.o
ld < c:\Tornado\target\lib\objMesaOS.o
6. Download the application modules.
7. In WindShell, run:
-> uglalldemos
During the show some messages will appear, it provides some useful
information on key management.
Coding
------
Sample Usage:
In addition to the usual ugl calls to initialize UGL, (may be find an
input driver), you must do the following to use the UGL/Mesa interface:
1. Call uglMesaCreateContext() to create a UGL/Mesa rendering context,
given the display format.
2. Call uglMesaMakeCurrent() to bind the UGL/Mesa buffers to an
UGL/Mesa Context and to make the context the current one.
3. Make gl* calls to render your graphics.
4. Use uglMesaSwapBuffers() when double buffering to swap front/back buffers.
5. Before the UGL is destroyed, call MesaDestroyContext().
6. Before exiting, call if required uglEventQDestroy and then uglDeinitialize();
Limitations
-----------
I found the following limitations in my driver :
- Color Indexed management is only in 8 bits
- The front and the back buffer must have the structure (mode and
size). A structure umc->buffer is requisite if the front and back
buffers are different.
- It isn't possible to mix UGL/OpenGL application with a software
double buffer (to fix)
Modifications
------------
New files in Mesa:
- Makefile.ugl
- rules.windmlmesa
- docs/README.UGL
- include/GL/uglmesa.h
- si-glu/Makefile.ugl
- src/Makefile.ugl
- src/ugl/torGLUTShapesInit.c
- src/ugl/torMesaUGLInit.c
- src/ugl/ugl_api.c
- src/ugl/ugl_dd.c
- src/ugl/ugl_glutshapes.c
- src/ugl/ugl_line.c
- src/ugl/ugl_span.c
- src/ugl/ugl_tri.c
- src/ugl/uglmesaP.h
- ugldemos/*
Modified files in Tornado 2.0:
- c:\Tornado\host\x86-win32\bin\torVars.bat
rem Command line build environments
set WIND_HOST_TYPE=x86-win32
set WIND_BASE=C:\Tornado
set MESA_BASE=C:\Mesa
set PATH=%WIND_BASE%\host\%WIND_HOST_TYPE%\bin;%PATH%
- c:\Tornado\target\config\comps\VxWorks\01uglmesa.cdf
- c:\Tornado\target\h\GL\*
Todo
----
- GCC 2.96, ASM compilation
