Description
A way to "soft deprecate" old-but-not-ancient GL functionality. I'm open to suggestions as well.
- Warn if non-DSA functions are used
- Warn if non-storage (TextureStorage, BufferStorage) functions are used
- Warn if VertexAttribPointer is used (prefer VertexAttribFormat, VertexArrayVertexBuffer, etc.)
- Warn if ActiveTexture is used (prefer BindTextureUnit)
Debatably:
- Warn if resource binding indices are set via uniform rather than setting it in the shader with `binding = #`
- Warn if uniforms are used at all (prefer uniform buffers)
- When drawing, warn if a texture object is bound to a texture binding, but no sampler object is (avoid using the built-in texture sampler state)
This is somewhat related to #1.
