DrawBuffers2 extension and OpenGL 3.3

[JoshKlint]

Is the functionality of the DrawBuffers2 extension made core in OpenGL 3.3+, under a different name? I am looking for an equivalent to the glEnableIndexedEXT() command, to tell the GPU which color attachments should be written to.

It's part of glDrawBuffers() now. Here is some example code that will clear the color bit of one color attachment, and then clear the other color attachments with a different color:

GLenum buffers[] = {GL_COLOR_ATTACHMENT0, GL_COLOR_ATTACHMENT1, GL_COLOR_ATTACHMENT2, GL_COLOR_ATTACHMENT3, GL_COLOR_ATTACHMENT4, GL_COLOR_ATTACHMENT5, GL_COLOR_ATTACHMENT6, GL_COLOR_ATTACHMENT7};
GLenum offsetbuffers[] = {GL_COLOR_ATTACHMENT1, GL_COLOR_ATTACHMENT2, GL_COLOR_ATTACHMENT3, GL_COLOR_ATTACHMENT4, GL_COLOR_ATTACHMENT5, GL_COLOR_ATTACHMENT6, GL_COLOR_ATTACHMENT7};

//Clear color component 0 using the specified clear color
glDrawBuffers(1,buffers);
glClearColor(clearcolor.x,clearcolor.y,clearcolor. z,clearcolor.w);
glClear(clearflags);

//Set clear color to black and clear color component 1-7
glClearColor(0,0,0,0);
glDrawBuffers(gbuffer->CountColorTextures()-1,offsetbuffers);
glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT);

//Restore writing to all components
glDrawBuffers(gbuffer->CountColorTextures(),buffers);
