Code review comment for lp:~vanvugt/mir/eglapp-bits

Yes you could do it that way. Although both approaches require a stupid/ugly linear search.

I suggest what is proposed here is a bit cleaner though. Because it allows the toolkit/app to choose its config in a way that is not bound to the limited/changeable list of Mir pixel formats. In fact, this way the toolkit/app never even has to see what its Mir pixel format is.

Setting up EGL before creating the native window is also how the EGL docs approach it:
