|

<p>The <a href="/docs/api.php">Application Programming Interface</a> documentation is now online, in addition to being distributed with the tarball. There have been a few changes to freeglut since the last update to the API documentation, and if anyone would like to make the appropriate updates, the whole project would appreciate it. Despite that, it's nearly wholly up-to-date. Please make good use of it.</p>

of his freeglut work.</div>
|
|
|
|
<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:
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Immediate exit() (old GLUT behavior)</li>
|
|
<li>glutMainLoop() returns to you</li>
|
|
<li>continue execution</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<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>

<p>If you like freeglut, think about helping out with the project. There's always more to be done to enhance the library!</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Documentation, example programs, suggestions for improvement -- they're all needed.</p>
