New WrapperTypes for convenience functions: ConvenienceReturnType to
replace an "out" parameter by a return value, and
ConvenienceArrayReturnType to replace an out array parameter by a
single return value (array count of 1 only).
We should only generate delegates for actual OpenGL entry points, not
for overloaded functions that resolve to the same entry point. This
improves loading speeds and reduces the size of the compiled dll.
Paths that don't define a "version" attribute will now match all
possible versions. This will make it easier to add support for newer
APIs as they are introduced.
After the previous commit, several ES 2.0 functions would refer to
enums found in ES 3.0. These enums have been copied to ES 2.0, either
as core enums or as extensions.
ES 3.0 includes ES 2.0 verbatim. We can significantly reduce
duplication by using the same <replace> node for both APIs. Note that
the enumerations must remain separate, as ES 2.0 and 3.0 support
different tokens.
The <overload> element simplifies the addition of overloads for
backwards compatibility. It is defined similar to the <replace>
element, but instead of replacing the parameters of a function
in-place, it adds a new overload and modifies the overload instead.
Sometimes an enum may reuse the tokens of another enum verbatim
(possibly adding a few extra tokens.) The reuse directive simplifies
the handling of this case:
<enum name="Foo">
<reuse enum="Bar" />
</enum>
Added strongly-typed enums for sections: Vertices, Shaders and
Programs. Added a number of missing enums for ES 2.0. Normalized
several APIs between OpenGL and OpenGL ES.
When a Delegate is defined multiple times in the spec, we should check
if any of these definitions contains a proper Delegate.Version and
store that. This improves the self-documentation aspect of the bindings.
Now that we support function overloads, it is safe to ignore functions
that are defined multiple times. We just merge their Category
properties if they are not identical.
It is now possible to define multiple overloads of the same function,
each with different parameters. This is extremely useful for
maintaining backwards compatibility in the face of the changes between
GL 4.3 and 4.4.
Tokens are now sorted according to their value, exactly is in the
upstream gl.xml spec. Additionally, gles1 and gles2 now include the
pre-defined groups in the specification.
Sometimes elements in overrides.xml contain extra spaces due to typos,
which are quite difficult to track down. The XmlSpecReader can now
cope with that.
OpenTK does not currently support generating bindings for pointers of
order 3 or higher. No OpenGL or OpenGL ES API currently uses such
pointers, so we just issue a warning message if such an API is
encountered in the future.
