[OXR ]Meta Quest 2 : use stencil buffer with OpenXR SDK in hello_xr base application - SOLVED

Hi,

To add "real mirrors" and "portals" to my Meta Quest 2 application, I need to use stencil buffer masking; however, the stencil OpenGL ES functions (glEnable(GL_STENCIL_TEST); glStencilFunc(GL_ALWAYS, 1, 0xff); ...) have no effect.

Desktop platform : Debian/GNU/Linux Bookworm
Developement IDE : Android Studio Flamingo 2022.2.1
VR platform : Meta Quest 2 v 57.0.0
SDK : OpenXR SDK Source 1.0.27 + ovr_openxr_mobile_sdk 54.0

After digging in the hello_xr, I've found the problem and add a solution :

in src/tests/hello_xr/graphicsplugin_opengles.cpp, the function GetDepthTexture(...) create an texture as the depth buffer and this can't manage a stencil buffer; it must create a renderbuffer to support stencil.

Here is my working patch :

This may help other developers.
