41Overview
42
43    There are a number of circumstances where an application may wish to
44    blend two textures out of a larger set of textures.  Moreover, in some
45    cases the selected textures may vary on a per-fragment basis within
46    a polygon.  Several examples include:
47
48       1. High dynamic range textures.  The application stores several
49       different "exposures" of an image as different textures.  On a
50       per-fragment basis, the application selects which exposures are
51       used.
52
53       2. A terrain engine where the altitude of a point determines the
54       texture applied to it.  If the transition is from beach sand to
55       grass to rocks to snow, the application will store each texture
56       in a different texture map, and dynamically select which two
57       textures to blend at run-time.
58
59       3. Storing short video clips in textures.  Each depth slice is a
60       single frame of video.
61
62    Several solutions to this problem have been proposed, but they either
63    involve using a separate texture unit for each texture map or using 3D
64    textures without mipmaps.  Both of these options have major drawbacks.
65
66    This extension provides a third alternative that eliminates the major
67    drawbacks of both previous methods.  A new texture target,
68    TEXTURE_2D_ARRAY, is added that functions identically to TEXTURE_3D in
69    all aspects except the sizes of the non-base level images.  In
70    traditional 3D texturing, the size of the N+1 LOD is half the size
71    of the N LOD in all three dimensions.  For the TEXTURE_2D_ARRAY target,
72    the height and width of the N+1 LOD is halved, but the depth is the
73    same for all levels of detail. The texture then becomes an array of
74    2D textures.  The per-fragment texel is selected by the R texture
75    coordinate.

344       textures, one- and two-dimensional array textures, and the six image
345       arrays for the cube map texture, partially instantiated image arrays
346       are maintained for one-, two-, and three-dimensional textures and one-
347       and two-dimensional array textures.  Additionally, a single proxy image
348       array is maintained for the cube map texture.  Each proxy image array
349       includes width, height, depth, border width, and internal format state
350       values, as well as state for the red, green, blue, alpha, luminance,
351       and intensity component resolutions. Proxy image arrays do not include
352       image data, nor do they include texture properties. When TexImage3D is
353       executed with target specified as PROXY_TEXTURE_3D, the
354       three-dimensional proxy state values of the specified level-of-detail
355       are recomputed and updated. If the image array would not be supported
356       by TexImage3D called with target set to TEXTURE 3D, no error is
357       generated, but the proxy width, height, depth, border width, and

362

369
370    -- Section 3.8.12 "Texture Objects"
371
372       Change section (page 180) to say (spec changes identical to
373       EXT_texture_array):
374
375       "In addition to the default textures TEXTURE_1D, TEXTURE_2D,
376       TEXTURE_3D, TEXTURE_CUBE_MAP, TEXTURE_1D_ARRAY_EXT, and TEXTURE_2D_EXT,
377       named one-, two-, and three-dimensional, cube map, and one- and
378       two-dimensional array texture objects can be created and operated upon.
379       The name space for texture objects is the unsigned integers, with zero
380       reserved by the GL.
381
382       A texture object is created by binding an unused name to TEXTURE_1D,
383       TEXTURE_2D, TEXTURE_3D, TEXTURE_CUBE_MAP, TEXTURE_1D_ARRAY_EXT, or
384       TEXTURE_2D_ARRAY_EXT. The binding is effected by calling
385
386         void BindTexture(enum target, uint texture);
387
388       with <target> set to the desired texture target and <texture> set to
389       the unused name.  The resulting texture object is a new state vector,
390       comprising all the state values listed in section 3.8.11, set to the
391       same initial values. If the new texture object is bound to TEXTURE_1D,
392       TEXTURE_2D, TEXTURE_3D, TEXTURE_CUBE_MAP, TEXTURE_1D_ARRAY_EXT, or
393       TEXTURE_2D_ARRAY_EXT, it is and remains a one-, two-,
394       three-dimensional, cube map, one- or two-dimensional array texture
395       respectively until it is deleted.

397       BindTexture may also be used to bind an existing texture object to
398       either TEXTURE_1D, TEXTURE_2D, TEXTURE_3D, TEXTURE_CUBE_MAP,
399       TEXTURE_1D_ARRAY_EXT, or TEXTURE_2D_ARRAY_EXT. The error
400       INVALID_OPERATION is generated if an attempt is made to bind a texture
401       object of different dimensionality than the specified target. If the
402       bind is successful no change is made to the state of the bound texture
403       object, and any previous binding to target is broken.
404
405       While a texture object is bound, GL operations on the target to which
406       it is bound affect the bound object, and queries of the target to which
407       it is bound return state from the bound object. If texture mapping of
408       the dimensionality of the target to which a texture object is bound is
409       enabled, the state of the bound texture object directs the texturing
410       operation.
411
412       In the initial state, TEXTURE_1D, TEXTURE_2D, TEXTURE_3D,
413       TEXTURE_CUBE_MAP, TEXTURE_1D_ARRAY_EXT, and TEXTURE_2D_ARRAY_EXT have
414       one-, two-, three-dimensional, cube map, and one- and two-dimensional
415       array texture state vectors respectively associated with them. In order
416       that access to these initial textures not be lost, they are treated as
417       texture objects all of whose names are 0. The initial one-, two-,
418       three-dimensional, cube map, one- and two-dimensional array textures
419       are therefore operated upon, queried, and applied as TEXTURE_1D,
420       TEXTURE_2D, TEXTURE_3D, TEXTURE_CUBE_MAP, TEXTURE_1D_ARRAY_EXT, and
421       TEXTURE_2D_ARRAY_EXT respectively while 0 is bound to the corresponding
422       targets.

685
686    S3TC texture compression is supported for two-dimensional array textures.
687    When <target> is TEXTURE_2D_ARRAY_EXT, each layer is stored independently
688    as a compressed two-dimensional textures.  When specifying or querying
689    compressed images using one of the S3TC formats, the images are provided
690    and/or returned as a series of two-dimensional textures stored
691    consecutively in memory, with the layer closest to zero specified first.
692    For array textures, images are not arranged in 4x4x4 or 4x4x2 blocks as in
693    the three-dimensional compression format provided in the
694    EXT_texture_compression_vtc extension.  Pixel store parameters, including
695    those specific to three-dimensional images, are ignored when compressed
696    image data are provided or returned, as in the
697    EXT_texture_compression_s3tc extension.
698
699    S3TC compression is not supported for one-dimensional texture targets in
700    EXT_texture_compression_s3tc, and is not supported for one-dimensional
701    array textures in this extension.  If compressed one-dimensional arrays
702    are needed, use a two-dimensional texture with a height of one.
703

735Issues
736
737    (1) Is "texture stack" a good name for this functionality?
738
739        NO.  The name is changed to "array texture" to match the
740        nomenclature used by GL_EXT_texture_array.
741
742    (2) Should the R texture coordinate be treated as normalized or
743    un-normalized?  If it were un-normalized, floor(R) could be thought
744    of as a direct index into the array texture.  This may be more
745    convenient for applications.
746
747        RESOLVED.  All texture coordinates are normalized.  The issue of
748        un-normalized texture coordinates has been discussed in the ARB
749        before and should be left for a layered extension.
750
751        RE-RESOLVED.  The R coordinate is un-normalized.  Accessing an array
752        using [0, layers-1] coordinates is much more natural.
753
754    (3) How does LOD selection work for stacked textures?
755
756        RESOLVED.  For 2D array textures the R coordinate is ignored, and
757        the LOD selection equations for 2D textures are used.  For 1D
758        array textures the T coordinate is ignored, and the LOD selection
759        equations for 1D textures are used.  The expected usage is in a
760        fragment program with an explicit LOD selection.
761
762    (4) What is the maximum size of a 2D array texture?  Is it the same
763    as for a 3D texture, or should a new query be added?  How about for 1D
764    array textures?
765
766        RESOLVED.  A new query is added.
767
768    (5) How are array textures exposed in GLSL?
769
770        RESOLVED.  Use GL_EXT_texture_array.
771
772    (6) Should a 1D array texture also be exposed?
773
774        RESOLVED.  For orthogonality, yes.
775
776    (7) How are stacked textures attached to framebuffer objects?
777
778        RESOLVED.  Layers of both one- and two-dimensional array textures
779        are attached using FreambufferTextureLayerEXT.  Once attached, the
780        array texture layer behaves exactly as either a one- or
781        two-dimensional texture.
782
783    (8) How is this extension related to GL_EXT_texture_array?
784
785        This extension adapats GL_MESAX_texture_stack to the notation,
786        indexing, and FBO access of GL_EXT_texture_array.  This extension
787        replaces the GLSL support of GL_EXT_texture_array with
788        GL_ARB_fragment_program support.
789
790        Assembly program support is also provided by GL_NV_gpu_program4.
791        GL_NV_gpu_program4 also adds support for other features that are
792        specific to Nvidia hardware, while this extension adds only support
793        for array textures.
794
795        Much of text of this extension that has changed since
796        GL_MESAX_texture_stack comes directly from either
797        GL_EXT_texture_array or GL_NV_gpu_program4.
