Does the Android emulator support OpenGL ES 3.0?

Question

I know that the emulator has supported OpenGL ES 2.0 as of SDK tools 17 and Android 4.0.3, but that was introduced back in April 2012.

Does the Android emulator sup

Answer 1

I found the version that the emulator supported by running glGetString(GLES20.GL_VERSION). It appears that the emulators I tested do not support OpenGL ES 3.0 or higher, but I don't want to assume that what they are reporting is what they actually support, so I'm not making any promises that this word is final.
