- [section:interop Interoperability]
- Boost.Compute provides a number of facilities to ease interoperability with
- other C and C++ libraries including [@http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenGL
- OpenGL], [@http://opencv.org/ OpenCV], [@http://eigen.tuxfamily.org Eigen],
- [@http://qt-project.org/ Qt], and [@http://vtk.org/ VTK].
- All of the interop headers are located in the `<boost/compute/interop/...>`
- directory.
- [section OpenGL]
- OpenGL is a standard API for 3D graphics and closely related to OpenCL.
- Boost.Compute provides an easy way to create a shared OpenCL/OpenGL context
- via the [funcref boost::compute::opengl_create_shared_context
- opengl_create_shared_context()] function. This creates a Boost.Compute
- [classref boost::compute::context context] object which can be used to create
- OpenCL memory buffers corresponding to OpenGL memory objects (such as VBOs).
- This allows for OpenCL kernels to read and write data which is then used
- directly for rendering with OpenGL.
- Boost.Compute provides a few classes to manage OpenGL objects and make them
- accessible to OpenCL. These include [classref boost::compute::opengl_buffer
- opengl_buffer] (for OpenGL memory objects) and [classref
- boost::compute::opengl_texture opengl_texture] (for OpenGL texture objects).
- Control of shared OpenCL/OpenGL memory objects is transfered between OpenCL and
- OpenGL using the [funcref boost::compute::opengl_enqueue_acquire_gl_objects
- opengl_enqueue_acquire_gl_objects()] and [funcref
- boost::compute::opengl_enqueue_release_gl_objects
- opengl_enqueue_release_gl_objects()] functions.
- See the OpenCL documentation for the
- [@https://www.khronos.org/registry/cl/sdk/1.2/docs/man/xhtml/cl_khr_gl_sharing.html
- cl_khr_gl_sharing] extension for more information.
