This is useful for unit tests. The content of the swapchain can be
read to main memory with Renderer::readPixels().
This PR doesn't implement this new feature in the following backends and
platforms (TODO):
VulkanDriver.cpp
MetalDriver.mm
PlatformWGL.cpp
PlatformWebGL.cpp
PlatformCocoaTouchGL.mm
Filament keeps a global static list of engines for verification purposes
which was being recreated multiple times, causing a panic. After a lot
of experimentation with the build, I was not able to fix this while
keeping the current scheme of dynamically loading both libraries.
As a "solution", we now staticly link filament into gltfio-jni, and ask
clients to load only that.
Fixes#1811.
This simple Kotlin app projects a live feed on the side of a cube.
It looks very similar to the `lit-cube` demo but there is a new Kotlin
class called `CameraHelper` that creates Camera2 objects, starts
the capture session, creates the Filament texture, etc.
For now, this app uses SurfaceTexture. This is a starting point and
provides a testing ground for tentative improvements to our Stream API.
* Lower limit from API 21 to API 19
This was requested by an internal application. API 19 is when OpenGL
ES 3.0 support was added so there is no good reason for us to not
support this API level. The only trick is to avoid referring to the
glTexStorage2DMultisample symbol directly as it only exists in 3.1.
* Compile out code we never use
* Use reflection to handle shared EGL contexts pre-API 21.
* Remove comment
* More fixes required to run on API level 19
- dlym() fails for ashmem on API 19, so we only try on API 26+ instead.
- Older emulation for OpenGL ES 3.0 returns error states for valid API calls so we need to clear the GL error bit before we create the GL driver.
- Activity lifecycle changes since API 19 would cause animations to keep running and to reference destroyed objects.
- EGLContext.getNativeHandle() is new in API 21, we need to use reflection on API 19. The new code path uses the class loading trick to avoid a bytecode verification error on API 19.
* Filament now runs properly on API level 19
This commit adds a new api_level() API to libutils which can be used to
query the platform's API level. On Android it works as expected, other
platforms currently return 0.
* Add new setExposure(float) API on Camera
This API can be used to set a specific exposure value. For instance:
camera.setExposure(1.0)
Will set the exposure to 1.0 (or ISO 100, apeture 1.0 and shutter speed 1.2s).
This can be useful to match the lighting setup of other engines/tools. Setting
the exposure to 1.0 can for instance be used to treat lights as being unitless
(a directional light could have a strength of 2.0 for instance).
Fixes#1667
* Update release notes
