Re: Vulkan(tm) announced
Super cool. I for one can't wait to use C++ like CUDA can. Type traits and static / compile time polymorphism - some fools think C is the way to go but it becomes hard to make generic code and you...

I hope the option to have ObjC interfaces, Swift Interfaces, Java, Python, Ruby, etc., are a possibility and not for a need of a bridge via C++. I'll take C 7 days a week over C++, especially seeing as...

Re: Vulkan(tm) announced
Uh... objc is probably possible but all the other stuff is not likely to have a good backing. We're talking of inside the kernels/on device, nothing about the runtime api - restricted subsets of...

THANKS realhet! Not specific to Hawaii, but see also OpenGL Programming Resources just in case there's something generally useful.

Unfortunately, I'm not aware of anything specific that AMD has produced on this topic since the manual you cited, either generic or for the actual gpu architecture yo're interested in. I'll dig...

Thank you very much for your help. Maybe AMD will release some specific manuals as soon as Vulkan evolves.

Re: How to force OpenGL texture/buffer memory to be freed?
Thanks for your reply. This is definitely a bug in the AMD driver if it cannot free memory that has been marked for release and there is a pending memory request that needs satisfying, i.e. a giant...
View ArticleRe: How to force OpenGL texture/buffer memory to be freed?
I think 'Doing a glFlush() and glFinish() after the delete' should work. Does the texture detached before delete ?

Re: How to force OpenGL texture/buffer memory to be freed?
Do you have access to Nvidia hardware to test the behavior ? Even though the GPU driver does the allocation of memory for the graphics resources you mentioned...driver memory management is tightly...
