D3D11 and OpenGL 3+I am working on an application where I need to create and destroy render textures of different sizes a lot.
Originally, I created a compositor workspace and several render textures, and wanted to use the single workspace to render to different textures.
However, going through the Ogre tutorial and examples, I can not find any clue about how to change the output target of the workspace.
So, each time I create an RT, I also add a workspace rendering to it. Then during destruction, the RT and the workspace are destroyed together.
At this point, I ran into memory leak. As the textures and workspaces are destroyed, the memory usage goes up quickly and never goes down.
I tried to see if those textures and workspaces are actually destroyed, by adding some printf to their destructors.
They are destroyed, the destructors are called.
I was using D3D11, now I tried OpenGL 3+, the memory leak is GONE! Seems like this is a D3D11 issue.
Searching the forum, I realize that D3D11 will cache the resources and not release them until ID3D11DeviceContext::Flush() is called.
So, I added a call to D3D11RenderSystem::_clearStateAndFlushCommandBuffer(). It works, partially. If the textures have fixed size,
no memory leak, otherwise leaking still occurs.
Then I looked through the forum and find that I may have to call RenderSystem::_cleanupDepthBuffers(false) to get rid of Ogre's caching.
Well, adding this call works, no memory leaks with changing texture size.
However, surprisingly, OpenGL 3+ now leaks memory! In OpenGL 3+, calling RenderSystem::_cleanupDepthBuffers(false) leads to memory leak,
but it works fine without the call.
So I wonder if this is a bug? Or am I doing something wrong ?
Btw, I don't feel right to call D3D11RenderSystem::_clearStateAndFlushCommandBuffer(), I think this kind of issue should be handled in RenderSystem, without going down to the concrete type like D3D11RenderSystem.
The test code is attached. It leaks in OpenGL but works in D3D11.
