Actually, only the basic compositing modes are hardware accelerated.
Will we see AND, XOR, NOT, SUB, ADD, MULT, … hardware accelerated compositing modes in the future ?
Will all java2d 's java.awt.AlphaComposite modes be accelerated when TRANSPARENT images will be hardware accelerated?
Thanks a lot for some insight.
Currently none of the compositing operations are hw accelerated.
(except for the default srcover, src, and only for certain types of images, and with simple transforms)
We do have plans to have hw acceleration for those operations, for all types of images, in our next major release (1.5).
very cool!
thanks a lot for the information.
waiting impatiently for 1.5 to come. (man, that will be looooonnng… )
