16-bit color channels

Previously, Mesa treated color channel values as GLubytes in [0,255].
|
There's experimental support for 16-bit color channels (64-bit pixels)
|
||||||
Mesa 3.5 uses the GLchan datatype for color channel values. In the
|
in Mesa 3.5. Only the OSMesa interface can be used for 16-bit rendering.
|
||||||
future it will be possible to define GLchan to be larger than a byte
|
Type "make linux-osmesa16" in the top-level directory to build the
|
||||||
in order to support high-precision colors.
|
special libOSMesa16.so library.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Many, many occurances of GLubyte have been replaced with GLchan
|
This hasn't been tested very thoroughly yet so please file bug reports
|
||||||
and many occurances of the number 255 have been replaced with CHAN_MAX.
|
if you have trouble.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Support for CHAN_BITS > 8 is not ready yet but will be eventually.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
In the future I hope to implement support for 32-bit, floating point
|
||||||
|
color channels.
