    Draft

Version

    Version 1, January 3, 2020

Number

    EGL Extension #XXX

Extension Type

    EGL device extension

Dependencies

    This extension is written against the language of EGL 1.5 as
    modified by EGL_EXT_device_query.

    EGL_EXT_device_query is required.

Overview

    ANGLE on iOS internally uses an OpenGL ES context allocated via EAGL.
    This extension defines a mapping from an EGL device to the underlying
    EAGLContext, after it's been queried from an EGL display.

IP Status

    No known claims.

New Types

    None.

New Procedures and Functions

    None.

New Tokens

    Accepted as a queried <attribute> in eglQueryDeviceAttribEXT:

        EGL_EAGL_CONTEXT_ANGLE          0x348C

Add a new section 2.1.3 (EAGL Devices) after 2.1.2 (Devices)

    On iOS the underlying EAGLContext can be queried from the EGL device. The
    intented purpose is to allow applications to create new EAGLContexts which
    share resources with this one.

Changes to section 3.2 (Devices)

    Replace the paragraph immediately following the prototype for
    eglQueryDeviceAttribEXT:

    <attribute> must be EGL_EAGL_CONTEXT_ANGLE.  On success, EGL_TRUE is
    returned, and a valid EAGLContext corresponding to the EGL device is
    returned in <value>. This object is compatible with OpenGL ES and EAGL API
    functions. If the EGL device is not currently associated with an
    EAGLContext, EGL_BAD_ATTRIBUTE is returned, and <value> is left unchanged.

Issues

    None
