1 Mojo Public C API | |
2 ================= | |
3 | |
4 This directory contains C language bindings for the Mojo Public API. | |
5 | |
6 Environment | |
7 ----------- | |
8 | |
9 The environment/ subdirectory defines some common things that, while not part of | |
10 the system API, may be required for GLES2 (for example). These are things that a | |
11 Mojo application may be required to provide to the GLES2 (for example) library | |
12 in order to use it. (However, the Mojo application may implement these things as | |
13 it sees fit.) | |
14 | |
15 GLES2 | |
16 ----- | |
17 | |
18 The gles2/ subdirectory defines the GLES2 C API that's available to Mojo | |
19 applications. To use GLES2, Mojo applications must link against a dynamic | |
20 library (the exact mechanism being platform-dependent) and use the header files | |
21 in this directory as well as the standard Khronos GLES2 header files. | |
22 | |
23 The reason for this, rather than providing GLES2 using the standard Mojo IPC | |
24 mechanism, is performance: The protocol (and transport mechanisms) used to | |
25 communicate with the Mojo GLES2 service is not stable nor "public" (mainly for | |
26 performance reasons), and using the dynamic library shields the application from | |
27 changes to the underlying system. | |
28 | |
29 System | |
30 ------ | |
31 | |
32 The system/ subdirectory provides definitions of the basic low-level API used by | |
33 all Mojo applications (whether directly or indirectly). These consist primarily | |
34 of the IPC primitives used to communicate with Mojo services. | |
35 | |
36 Though the message protocol is stable, the implementation of the transport is | |
37 not, and access to the IPC mechanisms must be via the primitives defined in this | |
38 directory. | |
39 | |
40 Test Support | |
41 ------------ | |
42 | |
43 This directory contains a C API for running tests. This API is only available | |
44 under special, specific test conditions. It is not meant for general use by Mojo | |
45 applications. | |
