Hi everyone, Does openGl has a lost device state like directX do? I can't seems to find such thing and if it doesn't, why? I've been using directX all these while and i am asking out of curiousity. Thanks

gl is meant to deal with all behind your back that so its impossible to lose the device state, IIRC i think d3d will be using something similar in the future (but dont quote me on that)

It's not a useful feature to have lost devices :)
