Using EGL and DirectFB in IMX6Q

[ali_sarlak]

Hi Community,

I realized that if I use DirectFB I can access to GC320, my plan is using DirectFB and EGL at the same time because other standard API such as OpenGL and OpenVG use the EGL to get their drawing surfaces so I wrote a code for this and I attached it(DFB.cpp).

When I use DirectFB alone I don’t have serious problem you can set :

#undef DFB_ONLY

To

#define DFB_ONLY

in my code to use just DirectFb.

But when I used EGL and DirectFB (#undef DFB_ONLY) and also I set the fb by:

fbset -fb /dev/fb0 -g 800 600 2048 2048 32

On eglSwapBuffers I ran into [SIG 11]!!! the output of my app is:

!--START--!

commandline read: dfb

Hi Ali,

This is an issue with libdirectfb_gal, however I do not know if this going to be fixed, Since there is no DirectFB support anymore. I suggest to use Wayland instead.
