The OpenGL programming world owes a tremendous debt to Mr. Mark J. Kilgard
|
|
|
|
|
for writing the OpenGL Utility Toolkit, or GLUT. The GLUT library
|
2002-11-26 21:56:55 +02:00
|
|
|
of functions allows an application programmer to create, control, and manipulate
|
2003-06-19 01:26:50 +03:00
|
|
|
windows independent of what operating system the program is running on.
|
|
|
|
|
By hiding the dependency on the operating system from the application programmer,
|
|
|
|
|
he allowed people to write truly portable OpenGL applications.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p> Mr. Kilgard copyrighted
|
|
|
|
|
his library and gave it a rather unusual license. Under his license,
|
|
|
|
|
people are allowed freely to copy and distribute the libraries and the source
|
|
|
|
|
code, but they are not allowed to modify it. For a long time this did
|
|
|
|
|
not matter because the GLUT library worked so well and because Mr. Kilgard
|
|
|
|
|
was releasing updates on a regular basis. But with the passage of time,
|
|
|
|
|
people started wanting some slightly different behaviours in their windowing
|
|
|
|
|
system. When Mr. Kilgard stopped supporting the GLUT library in 1999,
|
|
|
|
|
having moved on to bigger and better things, this started to become a problem.
|
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p> In December 1999,
|
|
|
|
|
Mr. Pawel Olzsta started work on an open-source clone of the GLUT library.
|
|
|
|
|
This open-source clone, which does not use any of the GLUT source code, has
|
|
|
|
|
evolved into the present <i>freeglut</i> library. This documentation
|
|
|
|
|
specifies the application program interface to the <i>freeglut</i> library.

<h2> 3.4 Differences from GLUT 3.7</h2>
|
|
|
|
|
Since the <i>freeglut</i> library was developed in order to update GLUT,
|
|
|
|
|
it is natural that there will be some differences between the two.
|
|
|
|
|
Each function in the API notes any differences between the GLUT and the <i>
|
|
|
|
|
freeglut</i> function behaviours. The important ones are summarized
|
|
|
|
|
here.
|
|
|
|
|
<h3> 3.4.1 glutMainLoop Behaviour</h3>
|
|
|
|
|
One of the commonest complaints about the GLUT library was that once an
|
2002-11-26 21:56:55 +02:00
|
|
|
application called "<tt>glutMainLoop</tt>", it never got control back.
|
|
|
|
|
There was no way for an application to loop in GLUT for a while, possibly
|
|
|
|
|
as a subloop while a specific window was open, and then return to the calling
|
2003-06-19 01:26:50 +03:00
|
|
|
function. A new function, "<tt>glutMainLoopEvent</tt>", has been added
|
|
|
|
|
to allow this functionality. Another function, "<tt>glutLeaveMainLoop</tt>
|
2003-06-25 21:01:36 +03:00
|
|
|
", has also been added to allow the application to tell <i>freeglut</i> to clean
|
2003-06-19 01:26:50 +03:00
|
|
|
up and close down.
|
|
|
|
|
<h3> 3.4.2 Action on Window Closure</h3>
|
|
|
|
|
Another difficulty with GLUT, especially with multiple-window programs,
|
2002-11-26 21:56:55 +02:00
|
|
|
is that if the user clicks on the "x" in the window header the application
|
|
|
|
|
exits immediately. The application programmer can now set an option,
|
2003-06-02 21:46:27 +03:00
|
|
|
"<tt> GLUT_ACTION_ON_WINDOW_CLOSE</tt>", to specify whether execution should
|
2002-11-26 21:56:55 +02:00
|
|
|
continue, whether GLUT should return control to the main program, or whether
|
2003-06-19 01:26:50 +03:00
|
|
|
GLUT should simply exit (the default).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<h3>3.4.3 Changes to Callbacks<br>
|
|
|
|
|
</h3>
|
|
|
|
|
Several new callbacks have been added and several callbacks which were specific
|
|
|
|
|
to Silicon Graphics hardware have not been implemented. Most or all
|
|
|
|
|
of the new callbacks are listed in the GLUT Version 4 "glut.h" header file
|
|
|
|
|
but did not make it into the documentation. The new callbacks consist
|
2005-06-23 20:39:05 +03:00
|
|
|
of regular and special key release callbacks, a joystick callback, a window
|
|
|
|
|
status callback, window closure callbacks, a menu closure callback, and a
|
|
|
|
|
mouse wheel callback. Unsupported callbacks are the three Spaceball
|
|
|
|
|
callbacks, the ButtonBox callback, and the two Tablet
|
2003-06-19 01:26:50 +03:00
|
|
|
callbacks. If the user has a need for an unsupported callback he should
|
|
|
|
|
contact the <i>freeglut</i> development team.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<h3>3.4.4 String Rendering<br>
|
|
|
|
|
</h3>
|
|
|
|
|
New functions have been added to render full character strings (including
|
|
|
|
|
carriage returns) rather than rendering one character at a time. More
|
|
|
|
|
functions return the widths of character strings and the font heights, in
|
|
|
|
|
pixels for bitmapped fonts and in OpenGL units for the stroke fonts.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<h3>3.4.5 Geometry Rendering<br>
|
|
|
|
|
</h3>
|
2005-06-23 20:39:05 +03:00
|
|
|
Functions have been added to render a wireframe and a solid rhombic
|
|
|
|
|
dodecahedron, a cylinder, and a Sierpinski sponge.

<p><b>Description</b> </p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>The "<tt>glutInitWindowPosition</tt>
|
|
|
|
|
" and "<tt>glutInitWindowSize</tt>" functions specify a desired position
|
|
|
|
|
and size for windows that <i>freeglut</i> will create in the future.
|
|
|
|
|
The position is measured in pixels from the upper left hand corner of the
|
|
|
|
|
screen, with "x" increasing to the right and "y" increasing towards the bottom
|
|
|
|
|
of the screen. The size is measured in pixels. <i>Freeglut</i>
|
|
|
|
|
does not promise to follow these specifications in creating its windows,
|
|
|
|
|
it certainly makes an attempt to. </p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>The position and size of a window are
|
|
|
|
|
a matter of some subtlety. Most windows have a usable area surrounded
|
|
|
|
|
by a border and with a title bar on the top. The border and title bar
|
|
|
|
|
are commonly called "decorations." The position of the window unfortunately
|
|
|
|
|
varies with the operating system. On Linux, it is the coordinates of
|
|
|
|
|
the upper left-hand corner of its decorations. On Windows, it is the
|
|
|
|
|
coordinates of the upper left hand corner of its usable interior. For
|
|
|
|
|
both operating systems, the size of the window is the size of the usable interior.
|
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>Windows has some additional quirks which
|
|
|
|
|
the application programmer should know about. First, the minimum y-coordinate
|
|
|
|
|
of a window decoration is zero. (This is a feature of <i>freeglut</i>
|
|
|
|
|
and can be adjusted if so desired.) Second, there appears to be a
|
|
|
|
|
minimum window width on Windows which is 104 pixels. The user may specify
|
|
|
|
|
a smaller width, but the Windows system calls ignore it. It is also
|
|
|
|
|
impossible to make a window narrower than this by dragging on its corner.
|
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p><b>Changes From GLUT</b> </p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>For some reason, GLUT is not affected
|
|
|
|
|
by the 104-pixel minimum window width. If the user clicks on the corner
|
|
|
|
|
of a window which is narrower than this amount, the window will immediately
|
|
|
|
|
snap out to this width, but the application can call "<tt>glutReshapeWindow</tt>
|
|
|
|
|
" and make a window narrower again. </p>

<h1> 5.0 <a name="EventProcessing"></a>
|
|
|
|
|
Event Processing Functions</h1>
|
|
|
|
|
After an application has finished initializing its windows and menus, it
|
|
|
|
|
enters an event loop. Within this loop, <i>freeglut</i> polls the
|
|
|
|
|
data entry devices (keyboard, mouse, etc.) and calls the application's appropriate
|
|
|
|
|
callbacks.
|
|
|
|
|
<p>In GLUT, control never returned from
|
|
|
|
|
the event loop (as invoked by the "<tt>glutMainLoop</tt>" function) to the
|
|
|
|
|
calling function. This prevented an application from having re-entrant
|
|
|
|
|
code, in which GLUT could be invoked from within a callback, and it prevented
|
|
|
|
|
the application from doing any post-processing (such as freeing allocated
|
|
|
|
|
memory) after GLUT had closed down. <i>Freeglut</i> allows the application
|
|
|
|
|
programmer to specify more direct control over the event loop by means of
|
|
|
|
|
two new functions. The first, "<tt>glutMainLoopEvent</tt>", processes
|
|
|
|
|
a single iteration of the event loop and allows the application to use a different
|
|
|
|
|
event loop controller or to contain re-entrant code. The second, "<tt>
|
|
|
|
|
glutLeaveMainLoop</tt>", causes the event loop to exit nicely; this is preferable
|
|
|
|
|
to the application's calling "<tt>exit</tt>" from within a GLUT callback.
|
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<h2> 5.1 glutMainLoop</h2>
|
|
|
|
|
The "<tt>glutMainLoop</tt>" function enters the event loop.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p><b>Usage</b> </p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p><tt>void glutMainLoop ( void ) ;</tt>
|
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p><b>Description</b> </p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>The "<tt>glutMainLoop</tt>" function
|
|
|
|
|
causes the program to enter the window event loop. An application should
|
|
|
|
|
call this function at most once. It will call any application callback
|
|
|
|
|
functions as required to process mouse clicks, mouse motion, key presses,
|
|
|
|
|
and so on. </p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p><b>Changes From GLUT</b> </p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>In GLUT, there was absolutely no way
|
|
|
|
|
for the application programmer to have control return from the "<tt>glutMainLoop</tt>
|
|
|
|
|
" function to the calling function. <i>Freeglut</i> allows the programmer
|
|
|
|
|
to force this by setting the "<tt>GLUT_ACTION_ON_WINDOW_CLOSE</tt>" option
|
|
|
|
|
and invoking the "<tt>glutLeaveMainLoop</tt>" function from one of the callbacks.
|
|
|
|
|
Stopping the program this way is preferable to simply calling "<tt>exit</tt>
|
|
|
|
|
" from within a callback because this allows <i>freeglut</i> to free allocated
|
|
|
|
|
memory and otherwise clean up after itself. (I know I just said this,
|
|
|
|
|
but I think it is important enough that it bears repeating.) </p>

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<h2> 5.2 glutMainLoopEvent</h2>
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|

in its event loop. This allows the application to control its own event

<p><b>Description</b> </p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>The "<tt>glutIdleFunc</tt>" function
|
|
|
|
|
specifies the function that <i>freeglut</i> will call to perform background
|
|
|
|
|
processing tasks such as continuous animation when window system events are
|
|
|
|
|
not being received. If enabled, this function is called continuously
|
|
|
|
|
from <i>freeglut</i> while no events are received. The callback function
|
|
|
|
|
has no parameters and returns no value. <i>Freeglut</i> does not change
|
|
|
|
|
the <i>current window</i> or the <i>current menu</i> before invoking the idle
|
|
|
|
|
callback; programs with multiple windows or menus must explicitly set the
|
|
|
|
|
<i>current window</i> and <i>current menu</i>
|
|
|
|
|
and not rely on its current setting. <br>
|
|
|
|
|
The amount of computation and rendering done in an idle
|
|
|
|
|
callback should be minimized to avoid affecting the program's interactive
|
|
|
|
|
response. In general, no more than a single frame of rendering should
|
|
|
|
|
be done in a single invocation of an idle callback. <br>
|
|
|
|
|
Calling "<tt>glutIdleFunc</tt>" with a NULL argument
|
|
|
|
|
disables the call to an idle callback. </p>

|
<p>Application programmers should note that
|
|
|
|
|
if they have specified the "continue execution" action on window closure,
|
|
|
|
|
<i>freeglut</i> will continue to call the
|
|
|
|
|
idle callback after the user has closed a window by clicking on the "x" in
|
|
|
|
|
the window header bar. If the idle callback renders a particular window
|
|
|
|
|
(this is considered bad form but is frequently done anyway), the programmer
|
|
|
|
|
should supply a window closure callback for that window which changes or disables
|
|
|
|
|
the idle callback. </p>

<p><tt>glutGetProcAddress</tt> is useful

functions directly, that application will only link/run with an OpenGL library

|
|
that supports the extension. By using a function pointer returned from glutGetProcAddress(),
|
|
|
|
|
the application will avoid this hard dependency and be more portable and interoperate
|
|
|
|
|
better with various implementations of OpenGL. </p>

|
|
Font Rendering Functions</h1>
|
|
|
|
|
<i>Freeglut</i> supports two types of font rendering: bitmap fonts,
|
|
|
|
|
which are rendered using the "<tt>glBitmap</tt>" function call, and stroke
|
|
|
|
|
fonts, which are rendered as sequences of OpenGL line segments. Because
|
|
|
|
|
they are rendered as bitmaps, the bitmap fonts tend to render more quickly
|
|
|
|
|
than stroke fonts, but they are less flexible in terms of scaling and rendering.
|
|
|
|
|
Bitmap font characters are positioned with calls to the "<tt>glRasterPos*</tt>
|
|
|
|
|
" functions while stroke font characters use the OpenGL transformations
|
|
|
|
|
to position characters.
|
|
|
|
|
<p> It should be noted
|
|
|
|
|
that <i>freeglut</i> fonts are similar but not identical to GLUT fonts.
|
|
|
|
|
At the moment, <i>freeglut</i> fonts do not support the "`" (backquote) and
|
|
|
|
|
"|" (vertical line) characters; in their place it renders asterisks. </p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p> <i>Freeglut</i> supports
|
|
|
|
|
the following bitmap fonts: </p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
|
|
|
<li> <tt>GLUT_BITMAP_8_BY_13</tt> - A variable-width font with every character
|
|
|
|
|
fitting in a rectangle of 13 pixels high by at most 8 pixels wide.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
<li> <tt>GLUT_BITMAP_9_BY_15</tt> - A variable-width font with every character
|
|
|
|
|
fitting in a rectangle of 15 pixels high by at most 9 pixels wide.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
<li> <tt>GLUT_BITMAP_TIMES_ROMAN_10</tt> - A 10-point variable-width Times
|
|
|
|
|
Roman font.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
<li> <tt>GLUT_BITMAP_TIMES_ROMAN_24</tt> - A 24-point variable-width Times
|
|
|
|
|
Roman font.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
<li> <tt>GLUT_BITMAP_HELVETICA_10</tt> - A 10-point variable-width Helvetica
|
|
|
|
|
font.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
<li> <tt>GLUT_BITMAP_HELVETICA_12</tt> - A 12-point variable-width Helvetica
|
|
|
|
|
font.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
<li> <tt>GLUT_BITMAP_HELVETICA_18</tt> - A 18-point variable-width Helvetica

|
font.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
|
<i>Freeglut</i> calls "<tt>glRasterPos4v</tt>" to advance the cursor by
|
2002-11-26 21:56:55 +02:00
|
|
|
the width of a character and to render carriage returns when appropriate.
|
2003-06-19 01:26:50 +03:00
|
|
|
It does not use any display lists in it rendering in bitmap fonts.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p> <i>Freeglut</i> supports
|
|
|
|
|
the following stroke fonts: </p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|

<li> <tt>GLUT_STROKE_ROMAN</tt> - A proportionally-spaced Roman Simplex

|
|
|

|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
|
<i>Freeglut</i> does not use any display lists in its rendering of stroke

Geometric Object Rendering Functions</h1>
|
|
|
|
|
<i>Freeglut</i> includes eighteen routines for generating easily-recognizable
|
|
|
|
|
3-d geometric objects. These routines are effectively the same ones
|
|
|
|
|
that are included in the GLUT library, and reflect the functionality available
|
|
|
|
|
in the <i>aux</i> toolkit described in the <i>OpenGL Programmer's Guide</i>
|
|
|
|
|
. They are included to allow programmers to create with a single
|
2003-06-02 21:46:27 +03:00
|
|
|
line of code a three-dimensional object which can be used to test a variety
|
2003-06-19 01:26:50 +03:00
|
|
|
of OpenGL functionality. None of the routines generates a display list
|
|
|
|
|
for the object which it draws. The functions generate normals appropriate
|
|
|
|
|
for lighting but, except for the teapon functions, do not generate texture

Application programmers who are porting their GLUT programs to <i>freeglut</i> may continue
|
|
|
|
|
to include <tt><GL/glut.h></tt> in their programs.
|
|
|
|
|
Programs which use the <i>freeglut</i>-specific extensions to GLUT should include
|
|
|
|
|
<tt><GL/freeglut.h></tt>. One possible arrangement is as follows:

Compile-time <i>freeglut</i> version testing can be done as follows:

In future releases, FREEGLUT_VERSION_2_1, FREEGLUT_VERSION_2_2, etc will
|
2003-06-19 18:35:51 +03:00
|
|
|
be defined. This scheme mimics OpenGL conventions.

The <i>freeglut</i> version can be queried at runtime by calling
|
2003-06-19 18:35:51 +03:00
|
|
|
glutGet(GLUT_VERSION).
|
|
|
|
|
The result will be X*10000+Y*100+Z where X is the major version, Y is the
|
|
|
|
|
minor version and Z is the patch level.

|
