Lwjgl
Properties
Preprocessor prefix that opts a shader into dFdx / dFdy. Defines our private WW_HAS_DERIVATIVES macro plus, where needed, emits the GLES extension directive. Shaders gate the derivative call site with #ifdef WW_HAS_DERIVATIVES rather than the reserved GL_OES_standard_derivatives (GLSL forbids user #define of GL_* names).
#version directive for shaders that need GLES 3 / GL 3.3+ features (e.g. texelFetch, sized R32F sampling). Returns "#version 300 es\n" on Android / WebGL2 / iOS, where legacy glslVersion is empty. Falls back to glslVersion on platforms that already default to a modern directive (JOGL emits #version 330 core\n).
True when receiver shaders may use sampler2DShadow hardware depth-compare sampling (needs a GLES 3 / WebGL 2 / GL 3.3 core shader path). Platforms whose glslVersion3 is unconditionally non-empty but whose context may be legacy (WebGL1) must override.
Largest float color-buffer precision that is render-target complete on this GL implementation. 32 =>GL_RGBA32F is renderable (desktop GL3+ / WebGL2 with EXT_color_buffer_float / Android+iOS-device GLES3 with the same extension); 16 => only GL_RGBA16F is renderable (some iOS Simulator GLES3 builds, GLES2 with EXT_color_buffer_half_float); 0 => no float color attachment is renderable and consumers must fall back to GL_RGBA8.
true when GL_LINEAR filtering is valid on a 32-bit-float colour texture. RGBA32F + GL_LINEAR is texture-complete only with OES_texture_float_linear / EXT_texture_float_linear; without it the sampler returns the incomplete-texture default (0,0,0,1) (Adreno 540 / Samsung S9 hits this). Callers that allocate RGBA32F must fall back to GL_NEAREST when this is false. No engine consumer since the shadow and sightline pipelines moved to plain depth textures; retained as public capability API. Always true on desktop GL3+; Android / iOS / WebGL query at runtime.
true on GLES3+ / GL3+ / WebGL2 — runtimes where multisample renderbuffers and blitFramebuffer resolves are available. The MSAA methods below (renderbufferStorageMultisample, framebufferRenderbuffer, blitFramebuffer) may throw when this is false; guard call sites with this flag.
true when one buffer object may be bound to both GL_ARRAY_BUFFER and GL_ELEMENT_ARRAY_BUFFER over its lifetime. Desktop GL / GLES / iOS allow it, so the 3D Tiles path packs vertices + indices into one buffer bound to both (one mmap/primitive). WebGL forbids rebinding a buffer to a second target, so there callers keep indices in a dedicated GL_ELEMENT_ARRAY_BUFFER. true here; the WebGL backends override to false.
true on GLES3+ / GL3+ / WebGL2 — runtimes where texImage2D accepts sized internalformat values (e.g. GL_RGBA8, GL_DEPTH_COMPONENT16). WebGL1 / GLES2 require unsized formats where internalformat == format. Sized formats are needed for MSAA-resolve compatibility (the resolve target's internal format must match the multisample renderbuffer's GL_RGBA8).
Functions
Allocate-only bufferData used for round-tripping pixel pack buffers (GL_STREAM_READ): reserves size bytes on the GPU without uploading source data. Pair with readPixelsToBuffer to write the framebuffer into the bound PBO and getBufferSubData to drain it back to CPU once a fence has signalled.
Byte-typed bufferData overload — used to upload pre-packed pixel bytes (e.g. a decoded video frame) into a GL_PIXEL_UNPACK_BUFFER for an asynchronous texSubImage2D DMA into a texture.
glDrawBuffers — selects the colour buffers the bound framebuffer draws into. Pass [GL_NONE] to make a depth-only framebuffer complete on desktop GL (which otherwise reports FRAMEBUFFER_INCOMPLETE_DRAW_BUFFER for the default GL_COLOR_ATTACHMENT0). Requires GLES3+ / WebGL2 / GL3+; no-op where unsupported (callers gate on supportsSizedTextureFormats).
Drain bytes from the buffer object bound to target (e.g. GL_PIXEL_PACK_BUFFER) into dst, starting at byte srcOffset within the buffer object. Blocks if the GPU is still writing the source range; the typical pattern is to wait for fenceSync to signal first.
Non-blocking probe for sync: returns true once the fence has signalled (i.e. all GL commands issued before fenceSync have completed). Internally glClientWaitSync(sync, 0, 0) with no flush.
Upload length bytes from source (starting at srcOffset) into the buffer object currently bound to target, at byte offset within the buffer. Implemented via glMapBufferRange(... access) + memcpy + glUnmapBuffer where supported (JVM / Android with GLES3+); falls back to bufferSubData on JS / older runtimes.
glReadBuffer — selects the colour buffer for read operations on the bound framebuffer. Pair readBuffer(GL_NONE) with drawBuffers for depth-only framebuffers. Requires GLES3+ / WebGL2 / GL3+; no-op where unsupported.
glReadPixels variant that writes into the buffer currently bound to GL_PIXEL_PACK_BUFFER at byte offset from its start. Non-blocking on the CPU side - the GPU continues to fill the PBO asynchronously. Pair with fenceSync / isSyncSignalled to know when the data is ready, then getBufferSubData to drain it. Requires GLES3+ / WebGL2 / GL3+; falls back to a synchronous CPU-target readPixels is the responsibility of the caller when those features aren't available.
Float-typed texImage2D overload for sized formats like GL_R32F whose type is GL_FLOAT. Each platform wraps the buffer in its native float view (Float32Array on JS, FloatBuffer on JVM/Android) without an intermediate byte copy.
Replace a sub-rectangle of an already-allocated 2D texture. Cheaper than texImage2D for steady-state video uploads — re-uploads pixels into existing storage rather than re-allocating the GPU image. Caller must ensure the texture was previously sized with texImage2D at the matching width/height.
PBO variant: read pixels for texSubImage2D from the buffer currently bound to GL_PIXEL_UNPACK_BUFFER, starting at byte offset within the buffer object. The driver copies asynchronously, so the GL thread doesn't block on pixel transfer. Requires GLES3+ / WebGL2 / GL3+.
