Class NVInternalformatSampleQuery

java.lang.Object

org.lwjgl.opengl.NVInternalformatSampleQuery

public class NVInternalformatSampleQuery
extends java.lang.Object

Native bindings to the NV_internalformat_sample_query extension.

Some OpenGL implementations support modes of multisampling which have properties which are non-obvious to applications and/or which may not be standards conformant. The idea of non-conformant AA modes is not new, and is exposed in both GLX and EGL with config caveats and the GLX_NON_CONFORMANT_CONFIG for GLX and EGL_NON_CONFORMANT_CONFIG for EGL, or by querying the EGL_CONFORMANT attribute in newer versions of EGL.

Both of these mechanisms operate on a per-config basis, which works as intended for window-based configs. However, with the advent of application-created FBOs, it is now possible to do all the multisample operations in an application-created FBO and never use a multisample window.

This extension further extends the internalformat query mechanism (first introduced by ARB_internalformat_query and extended in ARB_internalformat_query2) and introduces a mechanism for a implementation to report properties of formats that may also be dependent on the number of samples. This includes information such as whether the combination of format and samples should be considered conformant. This enables an implementation to report caveats which might apply to both window and FBO-based rendering configurations.

Requires OpenGL 4.2 or ARB_internalformat_query.
