PBuffer Rendering

- -

-Basically, FBconfigs and PBuffers allow you to do off-screen rendering -with OpenGL. The OSMesa interface does basically the same thing, but -fbconfigs and pbuffers are supported by more vendors. -PBuffer rendering may also be hardware accelerated. -

- -

-PBuffers are getting more use nowadays, though they've actually been -around for a long time on IRIX systems and other workstations. -

- -

-The -GL_SGIX_fbconfig -and - -GL_SGIX_pbuffer extensions describe the functionality. -More recently, these extensions have been promoted to ARB extensions (on -Windows at least). -

- -

-The Mesa/progs/xdemos/ directory has some useful code for working -with pbuffers: -

- -

pbinfo.c - like glxinfo, it prints a list of available - fbconfigs and whether each supports pbuffers. -
pbutil.c - a few utility functions for dealing with - fbconfigs and pbuffers. -
pbdemo.c - a demonstration of off-screen rendering with pbuffers. -

- -

-Mesa 4.1 and later support GL_SGIX_fbconfig and GL_SGIX_pbuffer (software -rendering only). -
