Vendors known +to ship said extension on Windows currently include nVidia and Intel. + +The other method involves using the ANGLE library (https://code.google.com/p/angleproject/) +If an OpenGL ES 2.x context is requested and no WGL_EXT_create_context_es2_profile +extension is found, SDL will try to load the libEGL.dll library provided by +ANGLE. +To obtain the ANGLE binaries, you can either compile from source from +https://chromium.googlesource.com/angle/angle or copy the relevant binaries from +a recent Chrome/Chromium install for Windows. The files you need are: + + * libEGL.dll + * libGLESv2.dll + * d3dcompiler_46.dll (supports Windows Vista or later, better shader compiler) + or... + * d3dcompiler_43.dll (supports Windows XP or later) + +If you compile ANGLE from source, you can configure it so it does not need the +d3dcompiler_* DLL at all (for details on this, see their documentation). +However, by default SDL will try to preload the d3dcompiler_46.dll to +comply with ANGLE's requirements. If you wish SDL to preload d3dcompiler_43.dll (to +support Windows XP) or to skip this step at all, you can use the +SDL_HINT_VIDEO_WIN_D3DCOMPILER hint (see SDL_hints.h for more details). + +Known Bugs: + + * SDL_GL_SetSwapInterval is currently a no op when using ANGLE. It appears + that there's a bug in the library which prevents the window contents from + refreshing if this is set to anything other than the default value. + +Vulkan Surface Support +============== + +Support for creating Vulkan surfaces is configured on by default. To disable it change the value of `SDL_VIDEO_VULKAN` to 0 in `SDL_config_windows.h`. You must install the [Vulkan SDK](https://www.lunarg.com/vulkan-sdk/) in order to use Vulkan graphics in your application. |
