OpenGL ES2

Hello,

I'm trying to cross-compile QT 4.x Embedded/QWS (no X11) for i.MX-53 with OpenGL ES2 support.

The problem is that the hellogl_es2/texture examples do not work. The GL widgets just stay black, the window etc is there.

My qmake.conf (in mkspecs/qws/linux-mxc-g++/):

Everything builds just fine and the binarys are correctly linked against the libraries. I can run normal OpenGL ES2 examples without QT, so this works.

I looked at the manuals of imxcommunity.org etc, but I could not find anything I do wrong.

Any hints would be greatly appreciated.

For OpenGL in Qt Embedded you need a special display plugin. The easiest way is to enable fullscreen GL. To do this you just need to open the framebuffer in getnativewindow (in the Qt sources) , just as you do in normal framebuffer GL.

I have a display plugin that does windowing , you can see it in a video here on this site. However it is currently

not fot public use.

Thank you very much for your response.

Is "simplegl" an example of a "special display plugin" and can it be used on the MX53?

Hello,

I'm Having the same problem with the the hellogl_es2/hellogl_es2 example on a DIGI int. board iMX515.

QtEmbedded-4.7.3

The GL widgets just stay black, and nothing else.

please any idea?

simplegl should work for fullscreen , however I don't know if you get the surrounding widgets.

It's my pleasure to see your response .

can you tell me the way to modify the source code to support the QGLWideget showing crrectly??

just as your videos shows!!
