Embedded Graphics

[#1]

The attached archive contains the starting point for developing an OpenVG-based embedded graphics application on the Wandboard.

It contains 2 items:

1) The training presentation:

     These are the support slides for the OpenVG presentation held during the Linux Embedded Challenge workshop.

2) The support application:

     This is a sample application meant to aid in setting up the platform for an OpenVG-based application.

     In order to compile it directly on the Wandboard, you will need the arm-linux-gnueabi-g++ compiler. If it is not already installed on the board, you can obtain it by installing the g++-arm-linux-gnueabi package:

     sudo apt-get install g++-arm-linux-gnueabi

     Use the provided Makefile to build the application. It provides an example on how to:

• Set up the platform (using X11) and the EGL objects (context, rendering surface etc.)
• Create an OpenVG path
• Create a linear gradient paint
• Create a pattern paint based on a user-generated image
• Fill and stroke a path
• Use transformation matrices to scale, rotate and translate a rendered object
