-Overview
-
- Mesa's implementation of GLX is entirely implemented on the client side.
- Therefore, Mesa cannot immediately detect when an X window or pixmap is
- destroyed in order to free any ancillary data associated with the window
- or pixmap.
-
- The glxMesaReleaseBuffers() function can be used to explicitly indicate
- when the back color buffer, depth buffer, stencil buffer, and/or accumu-
- lation buffer associated with a drawable can be freed.
-
-IP Status
-
- Open-source; freely implementable.
-
-Issues
-
- None.
-
-New Procedures and Functions
-
- Bool glXReleaseBuffersMESA( Display *dpy, GLXDrawable d );
-
-New Tokens

- None.
-
-Additions to Chapter 3 of the GLX 1.3 Specification (Functions and Errors)
-
- The function
-
- Bool glXReleaseBuffersMESA( Display *dpy, GLXDrawable d );
-
- causes all software ancillary buffers (back buffer, depth, stencil,
- accum, etc) associated with the named drawable to be immediately
- deallocated. True is returned if <d> is a valid Mesa GLX drawable,
- else False is returned. After calling glXReleaseBuffersMESA, the
- drawable should no longer be used for GL rendering. Results of
- attempting to do so are undefined.
-
-
-GLX Protocol
-
- None, since this is a client-side operation.
-
-Errors
-
- None.
-
-New State
-
- None.
