Does OpenGL Multipipe support IRIS GL ?
No, OpenGL Multipipe does not support IRIS GL. Therefore, applications such as Showcase and Snapshot, which are based on IRIS GL, are not supported. How is OpenGL Multipipe different from OpenGL Multipipe SDK? OpenGL Multipipe and OpenGL Multipipe SDK are very different. OpenGL Multipipe is an IRIX OS-level utility that allows an application to utilize multiple pipes, even though it was originally written for use with a single pipe. OpenGL Multipipe SDK is a programming interface for the development of “multipipe” applications, i.e., applications specifically designed to run in multipipe environments. Applications written with OpenGL Multipipe SDK will, in general, provide better multi-pipe scalability than single-pipe applications run transparently under the OpenGL Multipipe environment.
