How to load image BACK from OpenGL?

Question

I have succeed in loading an image to OpenGL as a texture (I use Gdk::Pixbuf from GTKmm library), but I have no idea how to get modified image from OpenGL and load it to Gdk::Pixbuf...

I want to modify images in OpenGL and the save them on hard disk.

There is some code:

Glib::RefPtr<Gdk::Pixbuf> pixmap = Gdk::Pixbuf::create_from_file("image.jpg");
GLuint texture[1];
glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D, texture[1]);
glTexParameteri(GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL_TEXTURE_MIN_FILTER, GL_LINEAR);
glTexParameteri(GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL_TEXTURE_MAG_FILTER, GL_LINEAR);
glTexImage2D(GL_TEXTURE_2D, 0, GL_RGB, pixmap->get_width(), pixmap->get_height(), 0,      GL_RGB, GL_UNSIGNED_BYTE, pixmap->get_pixels() );

Answer 1

将纹理四边形渲染到帧缓冲区，然后渲染glReadPixels() 。

Answer 2

只要你不使用OpenGL ES，但真正的桌面OpenGL，你就可以使用glGetTexImage 。

Answer 3

如果你想避免绘制调用，你可以创建一个帧缓冲并将纹理附加到颜色附件，然后使用glReadPixels
