bgfx

https://github.com/bkaradzic/bgfx

What is it?

Cross-platform rendering library.

Supported rendering backends:

  • OpenGL 2.1
  • OpenGL ES 2
  • OpenGL ES 3
  • Direct3D 9
  • Direct3D 11

Platforms:

  • Windows
  • Linux
  • Android
  • Native Client
  • JavaScript (via Emscripten)
  • OSX

Dependencies

https://github.com/bkaradzic/bx

Optional:
https://github.com/mendsley/tinystl

Building

Prerequisites

Premake 4.4 beta4
http://industriousone.com/premake/download

GNU make
Windows users download GNU make utility from:
http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/make.htm

Getting source

git clone git://github.com/bkaradzic/bx.git
git clone git://github.com/bkaradzic/bgfx.git
cd bgfx
make

After calling make, .build/projects/* directory will be generated. All intermediate files generated by compiler will be inside .build directory structure. Deleting .build directory at any time is safe.

Prerequisites for Linux

sudo apt-get install libgl1-mesa-dev

Prerequisites for Windows

When building on Windows, you have to set DXSDK_DIR environment variable to point to DirectX SDK directory.

setx DXSDK_DIR <path to DirectX SDK directory>

If you're building with Visual Studio 2008, you'll need TR1 support from:
Visual C++ 2008 Feature Pack Release

If you're building with MinGW/TDM compiler on Windows make DirectX SDK directory link to directory without spaces in the path.

mklink /D <path to DirectX SDK directory> c:\dxsdk
setx DXSDK_DIR c:\dxsdk

Prerequisites for Native Client (Pepper 22) on Windows

Download Native Client SDK from:
https://developers.google.com/native-client/sdk/download

setx NACL <path to Native Client SDK directory>\toolchain\win_x86_newlib

Building

Visual Studio 2008 command line:

make vs2008-release64

Visual Studio 2008 IDE:

start .build/projects/vs2008/bgfx.sln

Linux 64-bit:

make linux-release64

Other platforms:

make <configuration>

Configuration is <platform>-<debug/release><32/64>. For example:

linux-release32, nacl-debug64, android-release32, etc.

Internals

bgfx is using sort-based draw call bucketing. This means that submition order doesn't necessarily matches the rendering order, but on the low-level they will be sorted and ordered correctly. On the high level this allows more optimal way of submitting draw calls for all passes at one place, and on the low-level this allows better optimization of rendering order. This sometimes creates undesired results usually for GUI rendering, where draw order should usually match submit order. bgfx provides way to enable sequential rendering for these cases (see bgfx::setViewSeq).

Internally all low-level rendering draw calls are issued inside single function Context::rendererSubmit. This function exist inside each renderer backend implementation.

More detailed description of sort-based draw call bucketing can be found at:
Order your graphics draw calls around!

Customization

By default each platform has sane default values. For example on Windows default renderer is DirectX9, and on Linux it is OpenGL 2.1. On Windows platform all rendering backends are available. For OpenGL ES on desktop you can find more information at:- OpenGL ES 2.0 and EGL on desktop

If you're targeting specific mobile hardware, you can find GLES support in their official SDKs: Adreno SDK, Mali SDK, PowerVR SDK.

All configuration settings are located inside src/config.h.

Every BGFX_CONFIG_* setting can be changed by passing defines thru compiler switches. For example setting preprocessor define BGFX_CONFIG_RENDERER_OPENGL=1 on Windows will change backend renderer to OpenGL 2.1. on Windows. Since rendering APIs are platform specific, this obviously won't work nor make sense in all cases. Certain platforms have only single choice, for example the Native Client works only with OpenGL ES 2.0 renderer, using anything other than that will result in build errors.

Tools

Shader Compiler (shaderc)

bgfx cross-platform shader language is based on GLSL syntax. It's uses ANSI C preprocessor to transform GLSL like language syntax into HLSL. This technique has certain drawbacks, but overall it's simple and allows quick authoring of cross-platform shaders.

Texture Compiler (texturec)

This tool doesn't currently exist. Use nvdxt, or any other tool that produces DDS textures for now.

Geometry Compiler (geometryc)

Converts Wavefront .obj mesh file to format optimal for using with bgfx.

Todo

  • Multiple render targets.
  • BlendFuncSeparate and BlendEquationSeparate.
  • Blit between textures.
  • Occlusion queries.
  • iOS support.
  • DX11: MSAA.
  • Fullscreen mode.

Notice

This is alpha software, and it lacks documentation and examples. If you're interested to use it in your project, please let me know.
