texture-sharing between multiple contexts
user report: sharing textures with multiple gemwindows leads to a crash.
sometimes.
shared texture between multiple contexts is not working, it displays only white. i compiled gem from git on debian, and tried examples/14.multiple_windows/03.texture_sharing.pd with gemglutwindow and gemglxwindow. no error is displayed.
that's because it has been disabled in the 0.94-release to prevent your system from crashing. see #226 for a discussion.
in examples/14.multiple_windows/03.texture_sharing.pd is written "on Linux, this is only supported by [gemglutwindow]." but in #87 you mentioned that gemglutwindow doesnt do context sharing. so either im confused, or there is a little confusing mistake somewhere. anyway im happily using context sharing with gemglxwindow, but i have to use dedictated amd gpu. i also believe context sharing was not disabled because of mine system crashing, but avilleret in #87 and mxa in #214
