Yes, I purposefully didn't tell too many before FOSDEM; it's much more fun to come with something new to demo when you can. > I was already motivated to try your patches, unfortunately I am fighting > for 2 weeks against infamous i915 driver crashing with any OpenGL > program (+many other real life concerns). i915 is probably a tad old to run Movit -- or are you talking about the newer Intel cards (that use the driver formerly known as i945/i965, now just “intel”)? > Regarding integration, I was wondering whereas we should propagate the > #ifdef USE_OPENGL around you GL context inclusions... but as you say "we > are in 2014 and we can assume anyone has a GPU" ;-) (well, except the > one with buggy drivers like me), so I think it could be time to get rid > of those "#" and decrease code size? Yes, I think one should simply drop support for non-OpenGL output. As I see it, there's very little end-user value to keeping both (and how would a user know which one to use anyway?). Some branches of open source has historically had what I call “checkbox syndrome”, in that one doesn't manage to take a clear stance on choices and instead offers a checkbox, which sounds like the ideal solution in the short term (you can have it both ways, which is nice, right?), but ends up becoming a maintenance burden as well as source of user confusion. But if others disagree; yes, there would need to be a bunch of #ifdefs and probably some ifs (since this can also be selected runtime). /* Steinar */ -- Homepage: http://www.sesse.net/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Managing the Performance of Cloud-Based Applications Take advantage of what the Cloud has to offer - Avoid Common Pitfalls.
