[Mesa3d-users] MAX_WIDTH and MAX_HEIGHT

[Reichelt <rei...@ig...>]

Hi everybody,

is there a special reason why the maximal size of the viewport
(MAX_WIDTH and MAX_HEIGHT, see src/config.h, line 102/103) is compiled
into Mesa (maybe performance)?

Especially for off-screen rendering one would like to have much larger
viewports than the defaults (without having to recompile the libraries).
So my question is: Are MAX_WIDTH and MAX_HEIGHT really necessary or
could one do without? If not, could they be replaced by environment
variables which could be changed on demand without touching the
libraries?

Greetings,
Volker Reichelt
