hello,
since texture sharing seems to work between context inside one Gem's instance, I'm now wondering how we can introduce texture sharing between process. According to [1], texture (and more generally display list) can be shared between process if direct rendering is disabled and process are using the same X server. If I understand correctly, the only thing to do is to share the display list structure over process. Could we use shared memory to do that ?
I look into the [gemglxwindow] and [gemglutwindow] code and it looks a bit obscure to me, it uses advanced C++ idioms (PIMPL for the former and CALLBACK4WIN for the latter) that I don't understand well yet. So I want to know if this texture sharing between process is feasible before going deeper.
direct rendering disable? that's look like a huge problem...
cheers c
