May 20, 2011 Replies: 90 Android 2.2 and later support OpenGL 2.0 ES as well as OpenGL 1.0 ES. Having produced an OpenGL library for 1.0 I thought I may as well do one for 2.0 as well so here it is! The included "demo" is not really a demo at all and does little more than test the device OpenGL capability and initialise a drawing surface. It needs someone more interested in graphics than I to take it further. Note that the demo needs my Threading library. EDIT:- Version 1.1 posted. See post #12 for details. EDIT:- Version 1.2 posted. See post #16 for details. EDIT:- Version 1.3 posted. See post #35 for details. EDIT:- Version 1.4 posted. See post #61 for details. EDIT:- Version 1.5 posted. See post #83 for details. User @walterf25 has added two methods to the the library to create version 1.5. The new jar and xml are posted below in OpenGL2_v1.5_lib.zip. I have left version 1.4 as the zip for that contains a somewhat trivial demo program. Just use the new v1.5 libs and ignore the v1.4 ones.

G GDO Member Licensed User Longtime User Mar 8, 2013 #21 Hello, I don't know what is wrong but gl.Version always return 1.2 and all functions needed by opengl es 2 (1.5 , I suppose) are logged like that : called unimplemented OpenGL ES API My AVD is 4.1 and android.jar is from android-17 What can I do ?

agraham Expert Licensed User Longtime User Mar 8, 2013 #22 The Version property is the library version number and not the OpenGL version. The next version will be 1.3. What functions give that error and what is the exact error message?

agraham Expert Licensed User Longtime User Mar 8, 2013 #28 You can try putting this in your manifest that should check at runtime if OpenGL 2 is present. <uses-feature android:glEsVersion="0x00020000" android:required="true" /> Click to expand... Can your post your project (File -> Export as Zip) and I will see if I can see anything in the logs when it fails. However if some of the functions succeed but others fail I presently have no idea what the problem could be.

G GDO Member Licensed User Longtime User Mar 8, 2013 #29 Hi, I had already changed the manifest and it was not ok with the emulator. I tried with the real device and it is not ok. I changed my program (little program) to add more log("...") and now it is clear that the only functions that are OK are defined inside your libraries opengl 2 AND opengl 1. The functions that are only defined in the opengl 2 library are not working. I think the EGL_CONTEXT is not initialized for opengl 2 but for opengl 1 but I don't know why.

G GDO Member Licensed User Longtime User Mar 9, 2013 #32 Hello, Yes I used GLSurfaceView2.Initialize2 (I use your demo and try to add the display of a triangle). Now, with GLSurfaceView2.Initialize, all the errors disappeared but I can not see my triangle (on a real device). I don't know, for now, what I have to change in my code to make it work with Initialize. What I needed was RGBA_8888 and a 16 bits depth buffer (Initialize2 was perfect). I'll be back ... ;-) Once again, thank you for your help.

agraham Expert Licensed User Longtime User Mar 9, 2013 #33 I missed setting GLSurfaceView.setEGLContextClientVersion(2) in Initialize2 which is why I suggested trying Initialize which does have it. I'll post an update with Initialize2 corrected tomorrow as it's getting a bit late here now (17:30) and it's my turn to cook dinner tonight.

agraham Expert Licensed User Longtime User Mar 10, 2013 #35 Version 1.3 now posted has some new Initialize methods to let you control the configuration better. Initialize3 uses the default settings for OpenGL2 The following partial initializers can be used sequentially in place of Initialize, Initialize2 or Initialize3 to create a custom initialisation. InitializeGL - must be called and called first to set up OpenGL 2 InitializeConfig - if called should be called second to initialise the EGLConfigChooser InitializeHolder - if called should be called third to initialise the pixel format InitializeRender - must be called and called last to set up the Renderer

agraham Expert Licensed User Longtime User Mar 10, 2013 #37 Sorry I changed the name but the original one stuck in my mind when I wrote that post. I also made a stupid oversight in the code that I have now fixed. Download version 1.3 again and it should work. Notice that you need the int value of PixelFormat that you can get from the link in the help. Code: Copy glsv.InitializeGL2("glsv") glsv.InitializeConfig(8, 8, 8, 8, 16, 0) glsv.InitializeFormat(1) ' 1 is the int value of PixelFormat.RGBA_8888 glsv.InitializeRender(glsv.RENDERMODE_WHEN_DIRTY)
