It has to be determined how Vulkan can be migrated into JOGL, e.g. (names are just a suggestion and subject to change): - Adding a new base class for GL/GLContext, so Vulkan API can branch of the same - GObject -> [GLBase, VulkanBase] - GContext -> [GLContext, VulkanContext] if appropiate. - Determine what is a Vulkan context having its command queue and multi-threading in mind. - It seems that Vulkan and OpenCL 2.1 API will have a common API subset (command queue/buffer, ..). How can we expose a common interface / implementation? - .... 4602 1 sgothel 2015-03-04 15:42:25 +0100 Detailed discussions and work items shall be performed in its own bug entry depending on this group bug entry. 4604 2 sgothel 2015-03-04 15:55:00 +0100 (In reply to comment #0) > - It seems that Vulkan and OpenCL 2.1 API > will have a common API subset (command queue/buffer, ..). > How can we expose a common interface / implementation?

I'll have to find a graphics card compatible with this API. 6776 6 gouessej 2023-04-10 10:53:12 +0200 The Vulkan API registry can be found here: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/KhronosGroup/Vulkan-Headers/main/registry/vk.xml Feel free to create a separate bug report for the parsing of this file.
