Louvre v2.13.0-1

Louvre (2.13.0-1)

License

• Updated license to LGPLv2.1.

API Additions

• LTexture::write(Begin/Update/End): An alternative to LTexture::updateRect() that allows multiple texture updates without issuing an immediate internal synchronization.
• LOutput::currentBufferAge: Retrieves the age of the current buffer according to the EGL_EXT_buffer_age extension specification.

Wayland Backend

• Added damage tracking support.

Internal Changes

• LPainter::bindProgram() now fully synchronizes all uniforms and GL state, instead of just binding its GL program. This resolves issues encountered when integrating external shaders.
• Replaced LScene index-based damage tracking with buffer age.

Dependencies

• Updated SRM dependency to >= 0.11.0.

Louvre v2.10.0-1

Louvre (2.10.0-1)

Bug Fixes

• Fixed issue of black textures appearing on proprietary NVIDIA drivers (and potentially others). Thanks @renhiyama and @kingdomkind for all your help!
• Fixed synchronization issues between threads that were causing partial texture updates.
• Replaced calls to wl_client_destroy() with wl_resource_post_error() when an unknown buffer type is committed, which was causing segfaults. Thanks @Ramblurr for reporting it!
• Fixed segfault occurring when an idle inhibitor resource was destroyed.
• Wayland Backend: Resolved issue where modifier keys were not released when the window lost focus. Thanks @renhiyama for reporting it!

API Additions

• Added LTexture::setFence() and LRenderBuffer::setFence() to prevent partial updates when used as source textures.
• Added LTexture::setDataFromGL() to enable wrapping of already created OpenGL textures.

Performance

• Replaced glFinish() calls with fences, ensuring synchronization without requiring CPU-side waiting.

Tests

• Added test to validate support for common texture formats and the synchronization of updates across threads.

Dependencies

• Updated SRM dependency to version >= v0.8.0.

Thanks @renhiyama, @kingdomkind, and @Fox2Code for your invaluable support!
