Bug#636679: ITP: apitrace -- tool for debugging OpenGL applications and drivers
 

Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Christopher James Halse Rogers <raof@ubuntu.com>


* Package name : apitrace
Version : 1.0+git
Upstream Author : José Fonseca <jose.r.fonseca@gmail.com>
* URL : https://github.com/apitrace/apitrace
* License : MIT
Programming Lang: C++, Python
Description : tools for debugging OpenGL applications and drivers

apitrace is a suite of tools for debugging OpenGL applications and drivers.
It includes a tool to generate a trace of all the OpenGL calls an applicaton
makes and a tool for replaying these traces and inspecting the rendering and
OpenGL state during the program's execution.
.
This makes it useful for identifying the sources of graphical corruption in
OpenGL applications.

sounds very interesting. But I wonder if the name could be a bit more
specific, like opengl-trace or graphics-api-trace, as it does not seem
to trace arbitrary APIs.

Greetings,

Currently I see:
| Source: apitrace
| Package: apitrace-gl-tracer
| Package: apitrace-gl-retracer

does that look OK enough?

Mraw,

I’d probably have chosen the Source name to also include GL, but thats
almost bikeshedding, so OK from my POV.
