From e7f69c459af3274b9d1435c06a15b14eb40e4cc5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Chia-I Wu Date: Sat, 17 Jul 2010 22:00:04 +0800 Subject: gallium/docs: Document draw_vbo and set_index_buffer. Document the new unified drawing method and remove references to old ones. --- src/gallium/docs/d3d11ddi.txt | 30 ++++++++------------ src/gallium/docs/source/context.rst | 55 +++++++++++-------------------------- 2 files changed, 27 insertions(+), 58 deletions(-) (limited to 'src/gallium/docs') diff --git a/src/gallium/docs/d3d11ddi.txt b/src/gallium/docs/d3d11ddi.txt index 0954c2926d..f8155c828b 100644 --- a/src/gallium/docs/d3d11ddi.txt +++ b/src/gallium/docs/d3d11ddi.txt @@ -66,9 +66,6 @@ Unordered access view: view supporting random read/write access (usually from co clear + Gallium supports clearing both render targets and depth/stencil with a single call -draw_range_elements - + Gallium supports indexed draw with explicit range - fence_signalled fence_finish + D3D10/D3D11 don't appear to support explicit fencing; queries can often substitute though, and flushing is supported @@ -271,31 +268,27 @@ Dispatch (D3D11 only) DispatchIndirect (D3D11 only) - Gallium does not support compute shaders -Draw -> draw_arrays +Draw -> draw_vbo !
