Command-line arguments
======================

The Android version of glmark2 can accept command-line arguments from either
an extra intent key or a file. If arguments are specified in an intent key, the
file is disregarded.

Arguments from an extra intent key
----------------------------------

The 'args' extra intent key is used to specify arguments. For example:

am start -a android.intent.action.MAIN \
         -n org.linaro.glmark2/org.linaro.glmark2.Glmark2Activity \
         -e args '-b :duration=2 -b texture -f /path/file --debug'

Arguments from a file
---------------------

If the 'args' intent key is not defined, the contents of the file
'/data/glmark2/args' (if present) are used as command line arguments. The
arguments can be placed in either a single or multiple lines. For example:

-b :duration -b texture
-f /path/file
--debug

Android limitations and peculiarities
=====================================

The Android version of glmark2 doesn't accept all of the command-line arguments
that the X11 version accepts. In particular, the Android version currently
ignores the following:

--validate
--frame-end
--off-screen
--reuse-context
--fullscreen
-l,--list-scenes

The default visual config used on Android is:

'red=5:green=6:blue=5:alpha=0:depth=16:buffer=1'

Of course, you can change it using the '--visual-config' option.

The Android system is free to resize the application at will, so although the
'-s,--size' option is initially taken into account, it usually doesn't have any
lasting effect.
