relatively, its less slow and more delayed if that makes any sense
relatively, its less slow and more delayed if that makes any sense
Rwhich is what I'm trying to make
RDelayed is still functionally slow for the user
Lnah thats not the way to do it
Rand if the user's me, the user will not tolerate a low effective framerate when designing my game.
REssentially what I wanna do is take an eto control and somehow get at the native x11, wayland, and win32 window handles
LLand just adapt to WebGPU
Rthrough this method
in my engine's INativeWindow interface
in my engine's INativeWindow interface
Rfor win32 I need an HISTANCE, and an HWND, both are IntPtrs
Rfor x11 I need a Display (IntPtr) and a Window (uint)
Rwayland needs a Display and Surface, both are IntPtrs
R@baebey I'm lost lol
Lhappens
RI mean the above link doesn't even support wayland
Rso that's an issue
Li dont think eto does anyway
Lisnt it gtk3
RI have no idea
Rbut even then
Rwayland aside
Rthe gtk one in the link above is creating a swapchain
Rand not a surface
Rbut for webgpu I need to create a surface and my only options for creating a surface are
Rcreate a win32 one, create an x11 one, create an xcb one, create a wayland one, create a cocoa one, create an android one, or create an HTML canvas one
Rand for x11
Rwebgpu expects the display as a void* and the window as a uint @baebey
Rand the veldrid thing gets both as an IntPtr
Rand yes I did just try casting the IntPtr to a uint, it crashed
Mthe intptr is 64-bit on 64-bit executables
Mdon't cast it to a 32 bit value
Mthat uint is probably not meant to be a pointer
Mprobably some kind of handle
Chandle likely
C
Mmaybe a HWND
Lthey are talking about X11
Mwhatever a HWND is on linux
RI am telling you right now it's NOT a HWND
Rthat's Win32
Rthis is x11
Clikely x window id or something like that
Rx11 wants a display and an xid, webgpu calls that a Display and a Window respectively
Mi didn't think linux called it handles
Myeah so pass an xid
Rthe thing is I don't know how to get the display and xid out of the GTK Control that eto is creating
Rlike I can get the GTK display and window handles but what next
Rbecause the x11 bindings in the veldrid thing beyley linked
Lthis is the function you want to call to get the X11 window
Rthe function that gets an xid
Rreturns IntPtr
