## Description

A CoglContext is the top most sandbox of Cogl state for an application or toolkit. Its main purpose is to act as a sandbox for the memory management of state objects. Normally an application will only create a single context since there is no way to share resources between contexts.

For those familiar with OpenGL or perhaps Cairo it should be understood that unlike these APIs a Cogl context isn't a rendering context as such. In other words Cogl doesn't aim to provide a state machine style model for configuring rendering parameters. Most rendering state in Cogl is directly associated with user managed objects called pipelines and geometry is drawn with a specific pipeline object to a framebuffer object and those 3 things fully define the state for drawing. This is an important part of Cogl's design since it helps you write orthogonal rendering components that can all access the same GPU without having to worry about what state other components have left you with.

Cogl does not maintain internal references to the context for resources that depend on the context so applications. This is to help applications control the lifetime a context without us needing to introduce special api to handle the breakup of internal circular references due to internal resources and caches associated with the context. One a context has been destroyed then all directly or indirectly dependant resources will be in an inconsistent state and should not be manipulated or queried in any way. For applications that rely on the operating system to clean up resources this policy shouldn't affect them, but for applications that need to carefully destroy and re-create Cogl contexts multiple times throughout their lifetime (such as Android applications) they should be careful to destroy all context dependant resources, such as framebuffers or textures etc before unrefing and destroying the context.

`cogl_ortho` has been deprecated since version 1.10 and should not be used in newly-written code.

Use `cogl_framebuffer_orthographic()` instead

Replaces the current projection matrix with an orthographic projection matrix. See Figure 1, “” to see how the matrix is calculated.

Figure 1.

This function copies the arguments from OpenGL's `glOrtho()` even though they are unnecessarily confusing due to the z near and z far arguments actually being a "distance" from the origin, where negative values are behind the viewer, instead of coordinates for the z clipping planes which would have been consistent with the left, right bottom and top arguments.

#### Parameters

left | The coordinate for the left clipping plane |
right | The coordinate for the right clipping plane |
bottom | The coordinate for the bottom clipping plane |
top | The coordinate for the top clipping plane |
near | The distance to the near clipping plane (negative if the plane is behind the viewer) |
far | The distance for the far clipping plane (negative if the plane is behind the viewer) |

`cogl_set_source_color` has been deprecated since version 1.16 and should not be used in newly-written code.

Latest drawing apis all take an explicit CoglPipeline argument so this stack of CoglMaterials shouldn't be used.

This is a convenience function for creating a solid fill source material from the given color. This color will be used for any subsequent drawing operation.

The color will be premultiplied by Cogl, so the color should be non-premultiplied. For example: use (1.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.5) for semi-transparent red.

See also `cogl_set_source_color4ub()` and `cogl_set_source_color4f()` if you already have the color components.

                              uint8_t alpha);

`cogl_set_source_color4ub` has been deprecated since version 1.16 and should not be used in newly-written code.

Latest drawing apis all take an explicit CoglPipeline argument so this stack of CoglMaterials shouldn't be used.

This is a convenience function for creating a solid fill source material from the given color using unsigned bytes for each component. This color will be used for any subsequent drawing operation.

The value for each component is an unsigned byte in the range between 0 and 255.

#### Parameters

red | value of the red channel, between 0 and 255 |

                             float alpha);

`cogl_set_source_color4f` has been deprecated since version 1.16 and should not be used in newly-written code.

Latest drawing apis all take an explicit CoglPipeline argument so this stack of CoglMaterials shouldn't be used.

This is a convenience function for creating a solid fill source material from the given color using normalized values for each component. This color will be used for any subsequent drawing operation.

The value for each component is a fixed point number in the range between 0 and `1`.0. If the values passed in are outside that range, they will be clamped.

#### Parameters

red | value of the red channel, between 0 and `1`.0 |
green | value of the green channel, between 0 and `1`.0 |
blue | value of the blue channel, between 0 and `1`.0 |

    void
    cogl_set_source_texture (CoglTexture *texture);

`cogl_set_source_texture` has been deprecated since version 1.16 and should not be used in newly-written code.

Latest drawing apis all take an explicit CoglPipeline argument so this stack of CoglMaterials shouldn't be used.

This is a convenience function for creating a material with the first layer set to `texture` and setting that material as the source with cogl_set_source.

Note: There is no interaction between calls to cogl_set_source_color and cogl_set_source_texture. If you need to blend a texture with a color then you can create a simple material like this:

    material = cogl_material_new ();
    cogl_material_set_color4ub (material, 0xff, 0x00, 0x00, 0x80);
    cogl_material_set_layer (material, 0, tex_handle);

`cogl_get_source` has been deprecated since version 1.16 and should not be used in newly-written code.

Latest drawing apis all take an explicit CoglPipeline argument so this stack of CoglMaterials shouldn't be used.

Returns the current source material as previously set using `cogl_set_source()`.

You should typically consider the returned material immutable and not try to change any of its properties unless you own a reference to that material. At times you may be able to get a reference to an internally managed materials and the result of modifying such materials is undefined.

#### Returns

The current source material.

Since 1.6

### cogl_push_source ()

    void
    cogl_push_source (void *material);

`cogl_push_source` has been deprecated since version 1.16 and should not be used in newly-written code.

Latest drawing apis all take an explicit CoglPipeline argument so this stack of CoglMaterials shouldn't be used.

Pushes the given `material` to the top of the source stack. The material at the top of this stack defines the GPU state used to process later primitives as defined by `cogl_set_source()`.

#### Parameters

material | A CoglMaterial |

Since 1.6

### cogl_pop_source ()

    void
    cogl_pop_source (void);

`cogl_pop_source` has been deprecated since version 1.16 and should not be used in newly-written code.

Latest drawing apis all take an explicit CoglPipeline argument so this stack of CoglMaterials shouldn't be used.

### cogl_clear ()

    void
    cogl_clear (const CoglColor *color,
                unsigned long  buffers);

`cogl_clear` has been deprecated since version 1.16 and should not be used in newly-written code.

Use `cogl_framebuffer_clear()` api instead

Clears all the auxiliary buffers identified in the `buffers` mask, and if that includes the color buffer then the specified `color` is used.

#### Parameters

color | Background color to clear to |
buffers | A mask of CoglBufferBit's identifying which auxiliary buffers to clear |

### cogl_read_pixels ()

    void
    cogl_read_pixels (int x,
                      int y,
                      int width,
                      int height,
                      CoglReadPixelsFlags source,
                      CoglPixelFormat format,
                      uint8_t *pixels);

`cogl_read_pixels` has been deprecated since version 1.16 and should not be used in newly-written code.

Use `cogl_framebuffer_read_pixels()` instead

This reads a rectangle of pixels from the current framebuffer where position (0, 0) is the top left. The pixel at (x, y) is the first read, and the data is returned with a rowstride of (width * 4).

Currently Cogl assumes that the framebuffer is in a premultiplied format so if `format` is non-premultiplied it will convert it. To read the pixel values without any conversion you should either specify a format that doesn't use an alpha channel or use one of the formats ending in PRE.

#### Parameters

x | The window x position to start reading from |
y | The window y position to start reading from |
width | The width of the rectangle you want to read |
height | The height of the rectangle you want to read |
source | Identifies which auxillary buffer you want to read (only COGL_READ_PIXELS_COLOR_BUFFER supported currently) |
format | The pixel format you want the result in (only COGL_PIXEL_FORMAT_RGBA_8888 supported currently) |
pixels | The location to write the pixel data. |

### cogl_flush ()

    void
    cogl_flush (void);

This function should only need to be called in exceptional circumstances.

As an optimization Cogl drawing functions may batch up primitives internally, so if you are trying to use raw GL outside of Cogl you stand a better chance of being successful if you ask Cogl to flush any batched geometry before making your state changes.

It only ensure that the underlying driver is issued all the commands necessary to draw the batched primitives. It provides no guarantees about when the driver will complete the rendering.

This provides no guarantees about the GL state upon returning and to avoid confusing Cogl you should aim to restore any changes you make before resuming use of Cogl.

If you are making state changes with the intention of affecting Cogl drawing primitives you are 100% on your own since you stand a good chance of conflicting with Cogl internals. For example clutter-gst which currently uses direct GL calls to bind ARBfp programs will very likely break when Cogl starts to use ARBfb programs itself for the material API.

Since 1.0
