I am working on an OpenGL renderer in Win32… I was wondering, when a texture is bound to an ID if it is automatically destroyed and wiped from the video memory when the rendering context is destroyed, or does that count as a memory leak if they are left bound when the process terminates suddenly.
Thanks
All OpenGL resources are per-process, so it is reasonable to assume they get cleaned up on termination. Otherwise, you’d get nasty system-wide memory leaks on crashing applications – something completely unacceptable on any half-decent OS.
