[Chromium-dev] EGL call remoting in Chromium

[Suman S. <su...@an...>]

Hello All,


I am trying to understand what it would take to remote OpenGL calls from an android guest running inside VirtualBox to the host. From what I have seen, VirtualBox uses Chromium for 3d acceleration. However, the guest tools for Linux will not work as is on Android because of missing the X windows subsystem etc.

If I wanted to remote android opengl calls to the host (running on Windows) I think I will need to patch opengl and egl calls in android and have them remoted to virtualbox. Has anyone worked on something like this before? Is there anything I should watch out for?

I have no prior experience with 3d graphics so I might be wildly off here. Please bear with me :-)

Thanks
Suman
