[Interest] QWebEngine makes QApplication ignore AA_UseOpenGLES

[Agocs Laszlo]

Call QCoreApplication::setAttribute(Qt::AA_UseOpenGLES) before anything else, most importantly before constructing the Q(Gui)Application.

Right now you are making your request way too late, after WebEngine (and potentially others) have already run OpenGL related code.

Best regards,
Laszlo

That looks odd. This means that when we ask Qt which OpenGL module is in use
it returns LibGL.

The method we use to get the use-gl flag is QOpenGLContext::openGLModuleType
which in turn asks QWindowsIntegration::openGLModuleType which does not check
the application flags.

You better open a bug report on it.
