When combining OpenTK with a third-party OpenGL toolkit, it is now
possible to implement a suitable GetAddress() and GetCurrentContext()
implementation in terms of the third-party toolkit. If no
implementation is specified, then OpenTK will try to guess the most
suitable implementation within its own platform backends.
If no custom implementation is defined, and if no suitable
implementation can be found, then OpenTK will throw a
PlatformNotSupportedException. If a suitable implementation is found or
defined, then OpenTK will attempt to load OpenGL entry points using
that implementation.
In this case third-party toolkit remains solely responsible for
managing its context via its MakeCurrent(), SwapBuffers(), etc
implementations.
On many/most platforms, GraphicsContexts can only be released by the
thread where they are current. This means that the user must call
GraphicsContext.Dispose() or risk a resource leak.
Since we cannot release contexts on the finalizer thread, we should keep
strong references, instead of weak references, until the user explicitly
calls Dispose().
This patch fixes issues with SDL2 crashing when running the MonoGame
WindowsGL test suite.
Several projects are still using the last svn revision from the
sourceforge repository (r3127). These overloads provide an upgrade path
from r3127 to OpenTK 1.1.
The Mono 2.10 compiler fails when compiling extern methods that are not
marked as DllImport. We fix that by adding a method body that throws a
NotImplementedException instead.
Additionally, MonoDevelop 2.8 cannot open sln files with ToolsVersion 12.
The fix is to change ToolsVersion to 11.
We should be able to use static pinvokes on platforms that do not
provide or require extensions and calli instructions on platforms with
extension APIs. This dinstiction will be implemented as a parameter in
the rewriter.
The rewriter will patch the body of methods marked with [AutoGenerated].
Methods that are implemented manually (e.g. various math helper
overloads) should avoid this attribute.
OpenTK normally uses reflection to load bindings, instead of generating
huge constructors. Although reflection is faster on first load (thanks
to reduced JIT overhead), it fails to work correctly with monolinker.
This branch explores the performance of a direct binding.
Implementations may reuse OpenGL context handles that have been
destroyed. If a context is finalized but not Disposed, then OpenTK may
keep a reference to the old context handle, causing a crash when the
same handle is returned for a new context. To fix that, new context
handles will now replace old handles in case of a clash.
GetBoolean, GetInteger6, GetFixedvOES and Delete* are now matched in
the convenience wrapper generator. Methods returning vectors of fixed
size (e.g. 4 ints) are no longer matched.
OpenTK 1.0 and Xamarin Android/iOS do not use strongly-typed enums for
OpenGL ES. Generate overloads with the "All" enum in order to maintain
compatibility.
The static initializer of GetCurrentContext would always default to the
desktop PlatformFactory, which caused problems when trying to run OpenGL
ES code on the desktop. The initializer is now removed and
GetCurrentContext is set in the context constructor, before creating any
contexts.
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.

GraphicsMode.Default used to be set to
(DisplayDevice.Default.BitsPerPixel, 16, 0, 0, 0, 2, false) for improved
compatibility with older systems. However, this appears to be causing
issues with specific modern GPUs. Switch the default mode to (32, 24, 8)
until a more proper solution can be found.
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.
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.
Function overrides are now looked up in the following order: specific
name (e.g. ProgramParameteriARB), extensionless name (e.g.
ProgramParameteri) and generic mame (e.g. ProgramParameter). This
improves the override resolution for functions with multiple extension
forms (core, ext, arb, etc).
