Fixed bug #1026
Vittorio Giovara 2010-07-16 19:09:28 PDT
i was reading SDL_renderer_gles and i noticed that every time we there
is some gl call the gl state is modified with a couple of
glEnableClientState()/glDisableClientState.
While this is completely fine for desktops systems, this is a major
performace kill on mobile devices, right where opengles is
implemented.
Normal practice in this case is to update the glstate once, keep it
always the same and disable/enable other states only in very special
occasions.
On the web there's plenty of documentation (on the top of my head
http://developer.apple.com/iphone/library/documentation/3DDrawing/Conceptual/OpenGLES_ProgrammingGuide/Performance/Performance.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40008793-CH105-SW5
) and i personally tried this.
I modified my code and got a 10 fps boost, then modified SDL_render_gles and
shifted from 40 fps to 50 fps alone -- considering that i started from ~30fps i
got an 80% performance increase with this technique.
I have attached a dif of my changes, hope that it will be included in
mainstream.

Project files for embedded Visual C++ 3.0, 4.0 and Visual Studio 2005 can be found in VisualCE.zip SDL supports GAPI and WinDib output for Windows CE. GAPI driver supports: - all possible WinCE devices (Pocket PC, Smartphones, HPC) with different orientations of video memory and resolutions. - 4, 8 and 16 bpp devices - special handling of 8bpp on 8bpp devices - VGA mode, you can even switch between VGA and GAPI in runtime (between 240x320 and 480x640 for example). On VGA devices you can use either GAPI or VGA. - Landscape mode and automatic rotation of buttons and stylus coordinates. To enable landscape mode make width of video screen bigger than height. For example: SDL_SetVideoMode(320,240,16,SDL_FULLSCREEN) - WM2005 - SDL_ListModes NOTE: There are several SDL features not available in the WinCE port of SDL. - DirectX is not yet available - Semaphores are not available - Joystick support is not available - CD-ROM control is not available In addition, there are several features that run in "degraded" mode: Preprocessor Symbol Effect =================== ================================= SDL_systimer.c: USE_GETTICKCOUNT Less accurate values for SDL time functions USE_SETTIMER Use only a single marginally accurate timer SDL_syswm.c: DISABLE_ICON_SUPPORT Can't set the runtime window icon SDL_sysmouse.c: USE_STATIC_CURSOR Only the arrow cursor is available SDL_sysevents.c: NO_GETKEYBOARDSTATE Can't get modifier state on keyboard focus SDL_dibevents.c: NO_GETKEYBOARDSTATE Very limited keycode translation SDL_dibvideo.c: NO_GETDIBITS Can't distinguish between 15 bpp and 16 bpp NO_CHANGEDISPLAYSETTINGS No fullscreen support NO_GAMMA_SUPPORT Gamma correction not available
