Pure OpenGL 2D texture binding in processing 2.0

Hello,

I found a strange trick while trying to bind texture:

I'm loading an image ( and ONLY one, this will be important for the following ) in setup():

1. size( 1280, 768, OPENGL);
2. // then opengl stuff...
3. resource = loadImage( "/.../texture.png" );
4. resource.loadPixels(); << this seems to be important for the magic trick

Then, in draw():

1. gl.glEnable( gl.GL_TEXTURE_2D );
2. gl.glBindTexture( gl.GL_TEXTURE_2D, >> 1 << );

Surprise! The image can be used as texture!

I searched web and javadoc for hours, i didn't found any possibility to get the TextureID of the PImage!

@developpers: would it be possible to add a "getTextureID()" to PImage?

All the best.
