On Sony-Ericsson Satio glGetString returns NULL for GL_EXTENSIONS, GL_VENDOR and GL_VERSION. I have not tried GL_RENDERER. That’s especially annoying for the extensions.
Do I need to initialize something before calling glGetString?
Ok it works much better after OpenGL was initialized. Not sure what’s exactly needed though but fetching the strings after creation of the EGL display, context and surface works.
However it seems GL_EXTENSIONS returns an empty string. Am I getting that right? No extensions are supported on Satio?
Ok my bad one more time! I was getting that wrong. Satio does support a few extensions.
In fact here are the GL strings for Satio:
