  • Systems and methods for using EGL with an OpenGL API and a Vulkan graphics driver
    Patent number: 11232535
    Abstract: A method for using an EGL driver to create a renderable surface for an OpenGL API is provided. The EGL driver and the OpenGL API can be used with a Vulkan graphics driver, a memory, at least one processor, and a module stored in the memory including computer instruction code that is executable by the at least on processor. The method includes creating an EGL display structure; initializing the EGL display structure by querying the Vulkan driver for attributes of a physical display; choosing an EGL configuring matching the provided attributes; and creating the EGL surface. A non-transitory computer readable medium having an EGL driver with computer instruction code that is executable by a processor to create a renderable surface for an OpenGL API is also provided.
