Summary | 0009983: Framework for sharing OpenGL resources between several vtkOpenGLRenderWindows | ||||||||
Description | Examples of application: 1. several vtkRenderWindows, each one representing a different view point of the same scene: you want to share the resources (textures,shader program, framebuffer object, buffer objects, display lists). 2. Or different views of the same volume: share the 3D texture but show a different slice on each view. It only makes sense if there is a view using the whole 3D textures as it might less expensive to just load 2 2D textures to the VRAM. Benefit of sharing resources: saving memory. Drawback: some synchronization mechanism might be necessary (not in the sense of multithreading, but in the sense of make sure everybody is up-to-date about the shared resources). None of the case above require multithreading. It can be done in one GUI thread, iterating over each vtkRenderWindow and changing its current OpenGL context. | ||||||||
Additional Information | Implementation note: each vtkOpenGLRenderWindow is attached to a unique default framebuffer and a unique OpenGL context. The OpenGL contexts share a common set of server resources (in the sense of OpenGL server) Therefore, it seems natural to create a class vtkOpenGLResources representing the shared server state. Each vtkOpenGLRenderWindow object (or maybe better, each vtkOpenGLContext (new class)) will point to the same vtkOpenGLResources object. Issues to address: right now, each prop (OpenGL concrete class like vtkOpenGLActor) owns its OpenGL resources (texture, display list). | ||||||||
