JOGL

Key Features

* It provides full access to the APIs in the OpenGL 1.3 - 3.0, 3.1 - 3.3, ≥ 4.0, ES 1.x and ES 2.x specification as well as nearly all vendor extensions. OpenGL Evolution & JOGL (UML) gives you a brief overview of OpenGL, its profiles and how we map them to JOGL. * It integrates with the AWT, Swing and SWT widget sets, as well with custom windowing toolkits using the NativeWindow API. JOGL also provides its own native windowing toolkit, NEWT. * AWT integration is available via AWT GLCanvas and NEWT's NewtCanvasAWT, where Swing integration is available via GLJPanel. * SWT integration is available via SWT GLCanvas and by using the SWT/AWT brigde. * Other windowing systems or widgets sets can be implemented by using the NativeWindow API. * Jogl provides access to the latest OpenGL routines (OpenGL 4.x with nearly all vendor extensions) as well as platform-independent access to hardware-accelerated offscreen rendering ("pbuffers"). Jogl also provides some of the most popular features introduced by other Java bindings for OpenGL like GL4Java, LWJGL and Magician, including a composable pipeline model which can provide faster debugging for Java-based OpenGL applications than the analogous C program and a native windowing toolkit independent of AWT called NEWT.
