<p>freeglut 2.0.0 marks the first true departure from Mark Kilgard's original GLUT library, adding much-requested features while still retaining not only high backward compatibility with older implementations of GLUT, but all the polish of the original -- and more!</p>

<div class="news-subheader">What have we done? A lot.</div>
|
|
|
|
<p>This isn't the GLUT you remember.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>This is an incomplete list -- there are simply too many improvements to write!</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>General Improvements:</p>
|
|
|
|
<ul><li>You can now control program behavior when a GLUT window is closed by the user, rather than simply exiting. Options include:</li>
|
|
|
|
<ul><li>Immediate exit() (old GLUT behavior)</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>glutMainLoop() returns to you</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>continue execution</li></ul>
|
|
|
|
<li>Option to share a rendering context for each new window</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>Interruptable glutMainLoop (glutMainLoopEvent, glutLeaveMainLoop)</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>Window-specific callback functions (Close, WindowManager Close, Menu destruction)</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>User-specified data in Windows and Menus</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>Additional font statistics (stroke and bitmap heights...)</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>New font functions to allow the user to print strings instead of one character at a time</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>New primitives (RhombicDodecahedron, SierpinskiSponge)</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>Good-looking menus</li></ul>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>XFree86 GameMode improvements:</p>
|
|
|
|
<ul><li>force re-establishment of the original video mode by the X server even if the applicatiton exits immediately after leaving game mode</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>make sure that the X server has finished game mode preparations before continuing; fixes window sliding(missed mouse grab) and application exits.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>fix support for game mode resolution equal to maximum screen resolution</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>restore original view port and Pointer position when leaving game mode</li></ul>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>Win32 GameMode improvements:</p>
|
|
|
|
<ul><li>if desired display frequency for entering game mode is not found, a display mode without matching display frequency is tried.</li></ul>
