Hi Dianne,
I will post a sample code in android sometime soon. I have problem in
my opengl app: Basic logic is as follows:
drawframe()
{
if (time < 400) {
// step 1
drawobjects();
} else if (time < 800) {
//step 2
draw sprite text();
}
}
I first draw the text using GL10 in step 1, then I use the SDK sprite
text to draw some notification text. I don't clear the screen between
steps 1 and 2. The code Works perfectly on android 2.1 and 2.2 (in
step 2 I can see perfectly the objects and the text), but on 2.3.3
nexus only step 1 works when I get to the portion about draw text
(step 2) it throws all sorts of random colors on the screen.
My minsdkversion is 4 (version 1.6). I haven't specified a target sdk
version yet.
I was wondering if I need to step into 2.3.x android framework code to
debug this or just file a sample app code illustrating the problem and
post it as a bug. Would you recommend I post the sample code as a bug
ticket?
