@kvark

dunno if my cam works, and if child allows, but we can try ;)

Brendan Zabarauskas

@brendanzab

11:22 - starts at 12:00

so yeah, if I can get cargo working it will be much awesome

Dzmitry Malyshau

@kvark

Well I created a bunch of issues already (#24 just now) that require thought, good design, and solid implementations. You should not have a shortage of tasks for gfx-rs for sure ;)

Brendan Zabarauskas

@brendanzab

I might have to ask @cmr for some help though

yes

Dzmitry Malyshau

@kvark

Would be even more exciting if @cmr joins the crowd!

Coraline Sherratt

@removed~csherratt

I can supply cats

Brendan Zabarauskas

@brendanzab

@kvark do we even need a initialization error for now?

Dzmitry Malyshau

@kvark

where?

Brendan Zabarauskas

@brendanzab

for gfx::start

Dzmitry Malyshau

@kvark

we don't seem to be using it

Brendan Zabarauskas

@brendanzab

I mean, the errors seem to come from initing glfw, but that is separate

Dzmitry Malyshau

@kvark

nice

@bjz I guess you can remove InitError

Dzmitry Malyshau

@kvark

@bjz in this Metal triangle example vertex data looks very much the same as in GL, draw call is also the same (drawPrimitives(0,3)), the only real difference I see is that there is no notion of shader program... Gnm has it implemented this way as well, and I supposed DX11 too, so everyone but GL?.. Hence, that is a problem with our shader abstraction - just something to think about.

Brendan Zabarauskas

@brendanzab

yeah, the shaders are pre-compiled into libs

Brendan Zabarauskas

@brendanzab

I think you can build up some sort of set of pipeline builder objects on different threads, then send them to a command queue

@photex beep

@photex gonna join in on the spinning trianglethon?

Coraline Sherratt

@removed~csherratt

Not a goo

Not a good time to break X

Brendan Zabarauskas

@brendanzab

brendanzab @bjz cannot parse @csherratt's comments

Coraline Sherratt

@removed~csherratt

Driver update did not go well. I am now on a smart phone.

@kvark

@bjz I'll keep an eye on gitter and GH activity, but will not participate in the vidyo room. Have a good time hacking!

Brendan Zabarauskas

@brendanzab

aww, I wanted to see your face for once!

Dzmitry Malyshau

@kvark

@bjz sorry, my linux lappy is a flash-free environment, and my macmini doesn't have a webcam. You can still see my face on linkedin ;) Besides, you didn't show up either!

just wondering, is the goal of the hackaton to get the triangle spinning?

Brendan Zabarauskas

@brendanzab

yes!

still figuring out your patch

I think it might be good to have a simple triangle example, then one with the more complex stuff you added

I'm wondering if we should move to #rust-gamedev for the meetup

@kvark aslo, do you know about the bitflags! macro?

might be useful for some bitfield thingies in the messages

Brendan Zabarauskas

@brendanzab

@kvark could you join the irc?

Dzmitry Malyshau

@kvark

@bjz do you propose to have a spinning textured triangle as a separate sample? I'm good with it, sure. As for the bitflags - I considered it and rejected. If the ShaderStage type is a bitflag, then passing it for shader creation makes it less secured comparing to enum, because the user may pass Vertex | Fragment or something along these lines. Please correct me if that's wrong. I haven't figured out the best way to store block usage yet, but good thing is - it's not required for anything at the moment, so we can postpone the solution.

Brendan Zabarauskas

@brendanzab

parse_storage is nice :)

@bvssvni o/

Dzmitry Malyshau

@kvark

@bjz thanks! it's one of the brightest spots in the CL

@bvssvni hi Sven!

Brendan Zabarauskas

@brendanzab

I wonder if there is a better name for it though - I don't really understand what it does

could you add some more docs to your patch?

@bvssvni we are chatting about #23
