Description

GstGLDisplay represents a connection to the underlying windowing system. Elements are required to make use of GstContext to share and propogate a GstGLDisplay.

There are a number of environment variables that influence the choice of platform and window system specific functionality.

  • GST_GL_WINDOW influences the window system to use. Common values are 'x11', 'wayland', 'win32' or 'cocoa'.

  • GST_GL_PLATFORM influences the OpenGL platform to use. Common values are 'egl', 'glx', 'wgl' or 'cgl'.

  • GST_GL_API influences the OpenGL API requested by the OpenGL platform. Common values are 'opengl', 'opengl3' and 'gles2'.

Certain window systems require a special function to be called to initialize threading support. As this GStreamer GL library does not preclude concurrent access to the windowing system, it is strongly advised that applications ensure that threading support has been initialized before any other toolkit/library functionality is accessed. Failure to do so could result in sudden application abortion during execution. The most notably example of such a function is X11's XInitThreads().

Functions
