Code that uses unsafe.Pointer to convert an integer-typed value held in memory into a pointer is illegal and must be rewritten

This issue made because https://github.com/go-gl/gl/issues/18 is the wrong repository for it. This is the exact same issue that had to be resolved back in the old bindings https://github.com/go-gl/glfw/issues/78, the most...

Remove Cgo dependency on Windows

13

Fixes https://github.com/go-gl/gl/issues/109 # Design Document https://docs.google.com/document/d/1mqquznil9fR2amtb3eTC2ObCx3A8Af_5INqKjO-pKDg/edit?usp=sharing # tl;dr I propose to eliminate Cgo usages on Windows from go-gl/gl by fixing go-gl/glow to generate code using syscall.Syscall.

EGL: C syntax

For example https://github.com/errcw/glow/blob/master/xml/spec/egl.xml#L179 gives `DEFAULT_DISPLAY = ((EGLNativeDisplayType)0)` needs to be rewritten to `DEFAULT_DISPLAY = C.EGLNativeDisplayType(0)` UPDATE: needs more work ./package.go:120: cannot convert 0 (type int) to type C.EGLNativeDisplayType

automagic debug binding

Not really an issue, just another idea dump. I have found this debug binding to be very useful, you guys may want to implement something similar. https://github.com/bryanturley/gl/blob/master/dbg/gl.go#L31 It doesn't do...

slim down glow

My original cgo bindings took 4 minutes to compile with go (WITH GO). That was on tip between 1.1 and 1.2. 4 minutes! go compile times really spoiled me so...

Add sanitized prebuilt packages

4

Following @bryanturley's lead Glow should consider offering "sanitized" packages with a friendlier API. As a first pass I expect two things. One, including only relevant, high-quality extensions. Two, providing functions...

Non-GL-API packages may not work out of the box

Investigate whether all APIs at a minimum compile and can be initialized.

The `DrawElementsInstanced` takes a pointer that specifies the offset in the indices. Any chance for a `WithOffset` variant? Same goes for `ReadPixels`, which takes a Buffer offset in case of...
