TextRenderer, BitmapFont, DebugLineRenderer, and TextureCache's UI-texture
upload path (GetOrUploadRenderSurface/UploadRgba8) now issue every draw and
resource creation through the pinned IGpuDevice/IGpuFrame/IGpuPassEncoder
RHI contract instead of raw GL. This is the RHI's first real production
consumer - V0-V3 only established the contract, GL backend skeleton, and a
shader-dialect migration with no live GL exercise. TextRenderer owns one
IGpuPipeline (ui_text shader, straight-alpha blend, depth disabled) and
allocates a per-bucket ring each Flush; BitmapFont's atlas texture is
created and uploaded via device.CreateTexture/.Upload; DebugLineRenderer
mirrors the same one-pipeline-per-Flush shape for its line-list draws.
World-path TextureCache methods (GetOrUpload, the raw-GL layer-array
upload) are untouched - still legacy GL, still out of scope.
Frame lifecycle: GpuDeviceFrameLifetime (RenderFrameOrchestrator.cs) wraps
IGpuDevice.BeginFrame()/IGpuFrame.End() inside the existing
IRenderFrameLifetime bracket HostInputCameraCompositionPhase already opens
per callback, additively - no frame-graph restructuring. Ported renderers
reach the frame via ICurrentGpuFrameSource, a plain interface (not a
delegate field) so WorldSceneDiagnosticsController keeps passing its
existing "no stored window/delegate" architectural-conformance test.
Two real bugs surfaced by actually exercising the RHI against a live GL
context (nothing here was previously reachable before this slice):
- GlGpuDevice.BeginFrame() now resets the render-state cache every frame.
The cache assumes it is the sole writer of GL program/blend/depth/cull
state, which was true while it had zero real consumers, but every
still-legacy renderer (WbDrawDispatcher, terrain, particles, EnvCells)
mutates that same GL state directly and never informs the cache. Once a
legacy renderer ran between two RHI binds, the cache's belief about the
current GL program went stale, so a later BindPipeline(text shader)
skipped re-issuing glUseProgram and the following push-constant upload
threw GL_INVALID_OPERATION against whatever program was actually bound.
Reset() at the frame boundary is the same defensive move BeginPass
already makes after a forced clear (see its comment); it costs one
redundant state application on the frame's first bind.
- GL_MULTISAMPLE has no representation in the pinned contract. Added a
GL-backend-internal Multisample field to GlRenderStateSnapshot/Changes,
computed from GpuPipelineDescription.SampleCount at BindPipeline time -
mirrors how Vulkan bakes MSAA into the pipeline instead of a separate
toggle.
Collateral, scoped to keep the port real rather than a stub:
- GpuTextureSlot (Unassigned = uint.MaxValue, NOT 0) now flows through
every consumer of TextureCache.GetOrUploadRenderSurface/UploadRgba8 and
TextRenderer.DrawSprite - the entire retained UI layer, since a pervasive
Func<uint,(uint,int,int)> sprite-resolve delegate threads through nearly
every UI element/controller. Every prior `== 0` / `!= 0` "no texture"
check became `.IsAssigned` / `!.IsAssigned`; slot 0 is a real assigned
slot (the device's default white texture), so the old sentinel would
have produced live visual regressions if left in place.
- GpuTextureSlot/IGpuDevice/IGpuFrame are internal, so ~270 previously
public AcDream.App types that touched them (directly or transitively)
are now internal too - safe, since AcDream.App is an exe with no
external project references; only the two test projects consume it, via
InternalsVisibleTo. A handful of unrelated types the sweep caught
(ElementInfo/ImportedLayout's property-bag hierarchy, several enums used
as public [Theory] parameters, CursorFeedbackSnapshot's DragAcceptState)
were reverted back to public where making them internal would have
either cascaded into unrelated files or broken xUnit's public-member
discovery.
- ExternalViewportTextureBridge (new) registers the still-raw-GL FBO
color textures PrivateEntityViewportRenderer/PaperdollViewportRenderer
produce (V4g's scope) into the device's texture table for
UiViewport.TextureHandle, via a temporary
GlGpuDevice.RegisterExternalColorTexture escape hatch (internal, not
part of IGpuDevice) deleted when V4g ports those viewports.
- TextRenderGlStateScope.cs and its test deleted: the pipeline description
now bakes what it used to restore by hand.
- ResourceCleanupGroupTests/GlTextureOwnershipTests: the two source-text
conformance tests keyed to TextRenderer's old multi-resource
construction shape (Shader + per-flight FrameBufferSet array + white
texture + tracked VAO/VBO, all via ResourceCleanupGroup) no longer apply
- that shape is gone, replaced by one IGpuPipeline created through
IGpuDevice. The construction-order test is deleted; the checked-commit
texture-creation check now targets GlGpuTexture (which already used
the same GlResourceCommand.CreateName primitive before this slice).
Gates:
- dotnet build -c Release: 0 warnings, 0 errors (AcDream.App has
TreatWarningsAsErrors).
- dotnet test tests/AcDream.App.Tests -c Release: 3,840 passed / 3
skipped (was 3,843/3 entering this slice - net 3 fewer tests:
TextRendererFailureSafetyTests.cs deleted (2, tested the now-deleted
TextRenderGlStateScope) plus the one retired ResourceCleanupGroupTests
method). Full solution: 8,908 passed / 5 skipped across all nine test
projects.
- Offline pixel gate (tools/run-offline-pixel-gate.ps1, parent ec414d60
vs this commit): differing fraction 0.318% (1,791/563,200 compared
pixels), above the 0.001 threshold. Investigated pixel-by-pixel rather
than waved through: a diff heatmap plus 4x crops at the differing
clusters show zero differences anywhere in the retained UI, terrain,
scenery, or static meshes - every differing pixel sits on continuously-
animated ambient content (flying-insect sprites over the swamp, foliage
sparkle/dew glints) whose exact phase depends on elapsed wall-clock
time, the same category the gate's own sky-masking rationale already
documents and the campaign doc's coverage table explicitly excludes
("Not covered - particles"). Confirming evidence: two same-commit
captures at HEAD compare clean against each other (0.0025%), and two
same-commit captures at the parent compare clean against each other
(0.0044%) - only base-vs-head is consistently elevated, which is what
frame-pacing drift from genuinely new per-frame RHI work (BeginFrame,
ring resets, the render-state reset above) would produce against a
fixed wall-clock capture deadline, not a rendering defect. Recommend a
quick user visual check of this capture pair alongside the automated
result, matching how V2c's particle work was already handled in this
campaign (flagged for user visual confirmation rather than blocked on
an automated gate that cannot cover animated content).

Implements GlGpuDevice and the rest of AcDream.App.Rendering.Gpu.Gl,
filling the V0-pinned IGpuDevice contract on OpenGL 4.3. This is the
first of the port slices described in
docs/plans/2026-07-27-vulkan-campaign.md: every later renderer port
(V2 onward) needs a real, driver-proven GL implementation of the RHI
to port onto, and the GL backend is deliberately built to be
behaviour-preserving rather than optimal, because that is what turns
each subsequent slice's pixel gate into a strict identity check
instead of a moving target. The Vulkan backend (V5+) is where the
actual efficiency gains land.
GlGpuDevice is a fresh root, not derived from Chorizite's
BaseGraphicsDevice/OpenGLGraphicsDevice - shedding that inheritance is
one of the things this campaign explicitly does. It owns its own
BindlessSupport instance rather than sharing the legacy WB render
path's, which is what lets it be constructed the moment a GL context
and a GpuFrameFlightController exist, with no dependency on when
WorldRenderCompositionPhase happens to detect bindless support later
in startup. The ring buffer keeps a managed staging array plus a real
GL buffer per flight slot and flushes with one BufferSubData
immediately before each Draw/DrawIndexed/MultiDrawIndexedIndirect
(never at bind time, since a renderer may still write after binding);
V1 throws on an over-capacity ring request rather than growing it,
since nothing consumes the device yet and a silent grow would hide a
future renderer's real working set. The texture table is a bump/free-
list allocator over a managed uvec2 handle array, gated through the
frame-flight retirement queue so a released slot cannot be reused
while a submitted frame might still read it. Push constants are
applied by uniform name on the currently-bound program, cached per
program, and explicitly re-applied whenever BindPipeline switches
programs - GL uniforms are per-program state, so the "survives
pipeline changes within a pass" guarantee the interface documents (a
freebie on Vulkan's shared pipeline layout) has to be emulated here.
BindlessSupport gained one additive method,
GetResidentHandle(texture, sampler), calling the same
ArbBindlessTexture.GetTextureSamplerHandle entry point
ManagedGLTextureArray already uses through a different path. The
existing GetResidentHandle(texture) cannot express
IGpuDevice.RegisterTexture's documented pair semantics ("the same
texture registered with two samplers occupies two slots"), so this
was the minimal change needed rather than a workaround.
The pure bookkeeping - ring watermark/alignment arithmetic, the
texture-slot allocator, render-state diffing, the push-constant field-
to-uniform-name table, and GL format mapping - lives in small GL-free
classes so it is unit-testable without a live context, following the
same seam pattern GpuFrameFlightController already uses for its fence
API. GlGpuTimerPool follows suit with an injectable timer-query API.
The device is constructed in HostInputCameraCompositionPhase
immediately after the frame-flight controller (the same phase that
already builds GpuFrameFlightController), rather than in
WorldRenderCompositionPhase as first considered: GlGpuDevice's self-
contained bindless detection means it has no ordering dependency on
the legacy WB path's BindlessSupport, so it can be proven against the
real driver as early as possible while keeping the composition change
to one phase. Composition, publication, and shutdown wiring follow
the existing acquire/publish/fault-injection pattern exactly, and GPU
device disposal is scheduled through the frame-flight retirement queue
before that queue itself is torn down. Nothing consumes the device
yet - that starts at V4a - so this slice's pixel gate is trivially a
tripwire.
App tests: 3834 passed / 3 skipped (V0 baseline 3785 + 49 new: ring,
texture-slot, render-state, push-constant, format-mapping, enum-
mapping, and timer-pool tests, plus one new fault-injection point in
the existing composition theory).

Make every App composition phase borrow one GameRuntime, retire the duplicate view/event adapters, and dispose the root only after its graphical borrowers release. This preserves synchronous UI commands while giving shutdown one exact ownership ledger.
