Is that an OpenGL ES feature, or something specific to iOS?
Generally, all your Android threads run in one process, and it's not
hard to share data between them. Might it be possible to save your
OpenGL context from your rendering thread, then use it to create
textures in another thread? One approach would be static vars in your
rendering subclass:
static GL10 glContext;
static int textures[] = new int[3];
public void onSurfaceCreated(GL10 gl, EGLConfig config) {
glContext = gl;
gl.glGenTextures(3, textures, 0);
...
}
Something like that might work, anyway.
