[Csgl-users] 1.3.1 BUGFIXE

[Lloyd D. <ll...@ga...>]

some people had no display with 1.3
I "fix" it.

It is due to an incorrect return of DescribePixelFormat, so my DisplayType
structure has wrong value. I can't do nothing about that but I remove a
conditional test before swapping buffer.

I also ship a VS.NET project.
Update the FAQ

and improve the build process of NeHe example. you could build it with
"make" or "run.bat" and with or without ResBuilder (the resource builder)

RE: [Csgl-users] Compiling NeHe apps.

[jnsmith <jn...@ut...>]

How big is your pipe on the download end? I could zip up the files (the NeHe
tutorials) and send them to you - they're each about ~500KB when the CsGL
.dll's and everything are included (the generated debug .exe's are trivially
small compared to the .dll's), and there's one for each lesson 2-9,11 and
17, for a total ~5.5MB.

glad you appreciate.
send me a link ? .... ;-)

you make me think that ship a VS.NET project should to be
on the list of things I have to do, one day...

Re: [Csgl-users] csgl 1.3

[Lloyd D. <ll...@ga...>]

HI Eric,

mmh.. I cannot really understand your problem....
a major change,to answer your question, is that I rewrite most low-level
object in managed C++

about your screenshot, it just show the console, without problem.
do you mean the example application didn't show ?
(what is your console behind, by the way ?)

could you be more explicit ?
do you try ALT+TAB ? maybe the application form is somewhere, hidden by your
other app ?

I have no idea of your problem...

[Csgl-users] csgl 1.3

[<Eri...@fs...>]

Hello.
I cannot seem to make your CSGL v1.3 work.

I have been successfully using a previous version (0.9.1) for some time now
with no problem.
What has changed here?
I have tried all of the samples, and they all have the same result.

It seems that the OpenGLControl is not painting properly.

Here is a screenshot: ( any ideas??)

[Csgl-users] Compiling NeHe apps.

[jnsmith <jn...@ut...>]

I'm a new user and just debugged and compiled lesson 02. If there's anyone
who downloaded the most recent files (6/12/2002) and owns the Visual Studio
.NET (7) environment here's what you do:

(1)Download all the zip files from sourceforge.
(2)Unzip all into a single file (just to keep track of them).
(3)Run the .bat inside of libinstall just for kicks.
*******NeHE********
(4)Open a Windows Application C# Project <--- MUY IMPORTANTE!!
(5)Add all the .dll's (references) within the lib file (next to libinstall
on the extraction), I'm brand new to C# ... these things look like debug
projects so DO NOT set the "Copy Local" variable to false, there are
occasional conflicts and a small (oft reported) bug in VS.NET.
(6)Add Existing to the project and add the Common.cs and Lesson02.cs files.
(7)Search through the Common.cs and comment out all the delegate calls to
LoadIcon OR don't comment them out and figure out how to get the LoadIcon
member to load the app icon.
(8)ctrl-F5 and it should run.

Re: [Csgl-users] Quadrics

[Lloyd D. <ll...@ga...>]

you could download here:
ftp://ftp.sgi.com/opengl/opengl12.zip
a lot of examples.

this are C example but you should be able to easily translating them into C#
oh, I found only one quadric example.
I attach it here.

maybe I will try to rewrite it in C# too and add ity to next version, it's
is a good idea.

[Csgl-users] Quadrics

[R.Livsey <R.L...@ca...>]

Hi, Does anyone have any examples of using quadrics with CSGL?

Ive gone through all the examples included but none cover quadrics, so
Ive been looking at nehe etc and their tutorials, but cant get them to
work :)

[Csgl-users] update

[Lloyd D. <ll...@ga...>]

Hi fellow users..

I made an update to CsGL tonight.

well, there is no new feature.

But all foundations were rewritte in managed C++, much easier to =
maintain. it even remove one very mysterious though apparently not =
harmfull bug, but who knows...

And I need your help, I have written a tool to create OpenGL extension =
for CsGL in 10 minutes, but now I need header (.h), sample, =
specifications, examples of extension use. could anyone send me such =
materials ?
any contribution would be wellcome...

btw I ship now a .cpp and VB.NET example. for .cpp it was not a big =
deal.
but for VB I had to add a new utility class, but it work well now, as =
far I can tell...

[Csgl-users] poll on OpenGLContext

[Lloyd D. <ll...@ga...>]

Hi fellow user,

I have a question to submit you before doing some work in my own way.

1st: on OpenGLContext:
---------------------------
I am currently rewritting the basic object in managed C++
this because:
    - it is much cleaner and easier to access/debug OS specific feature
    - I am commited to because it will greatly help me for (coming) OpenGL
extension

mmhh.. It appear I will make a few modification to OpenGLContext object.
does it bother some of you ?

what I plan:
Remove access to PIXELFORMAT descriptor structure (it is not mulitplatform
and who knows ?...)
Instead I will let the user the opportunity to set:
    - RGBA or COLORINDEX mode
    - DOUBLEBUFFER or not
    - support GDI or not
    - color depth
    - z-buffer depth

is that ok for you ?
any comment ?

btw I will try to let you create context on printer and bitmap....

2nd on OpenGLControl:
---------------------------
here it is more a fact than a question, I just let you know that I plan to
make a per thread automatic instanciation of OpenGLContext by the
OpenGLControl.
Though I have some hesitation to add, instead, an "Ungrab()" method (in the
context), but I believe I can't (I can't rememeber but I believe I already
test it without success)

[Csgl-users] Re: Again

[Lloyd D. <ll...@ga...>]

mmhh..
NeHeModel is in comon.cs.
I don't know how you try to build.....

but you should build any example like this

csc /r:csgl-opengl.dll common.cs lessonXX.cs

did you do that ?

[Csgl-users] CsGL Install Problems

[Elias M. <el...@ro...>]

I am having problems installing the program.  I have all the required =
stuff installed yet when I try the demo files out, as in try to compile =
them, I get the following two errors:

"lesson02.cs:error CS0246:The type or namespace name "NeHeApp" could not =
be found(are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)"

As well,

"lesson02.cs:error CS0246:The type or namespac name "NeHeModel" could =
not be found(are you missing a using directive or an assembly =
reference?)"

I installed the program and am trying to run the example programs.  I am =
using windows xp and have the necessary files.  My build line includes =
the /r:csgl-opengl.dll
So why am I getting these errors and how do I go about remedying the =
situation?  Thanks for your time.

Cheers,

Eli.

[Csgl-users] Re: CsGL binaries ?

[Lloyd D. <ll...@ga...>]

the corrupted files problem on soureforge is now fixed.
sorry ;-)

[Csgl-users] CsGL update

[Lloyd D. <ll...@ga...>]

Hi guys there is an update of CsGL (yeah again),
so, what's news ?

a.. the OpenGLFont and OpenGLTexture2D are now ContextLocal, alloc once, =
use on any context easily...=20
a.. the GDITextureFont has a nicer output=20
a.. about 40 new safe function=20
a.. a new related project GLViewer

the new porject (which I write tool) is (in my opinion very nice) a =
generic 3D model viewer, this mean you could either write SimpleGLModel=20
//---
public MyModel : SimpleGLModel
{
    public override Draw()
    {
        glSomething();
    }
}

and that's it, the viewer could display it, dynamically loading your =
dll... I think it could help...
you could also write an IGLModelReader interface, put the dll in =
bin/filters, and the viewer will suddenly become
able to open your file format

that's it, enjoy and give me your feedback....

Cheers that was it. Been using the Beta version on VS.NET and am waiting
to receive a working copy of the full version from MS - last one I had
wouldn't install.
Updated the Framework and it works fine now, although it has broken
VS.NET! :(

Will just use it with editplus and csc until I get VS working again.

Cheers - have now worked through the tuts and have a good grasp of it,
should be fun working with it on this project :)

mmhh..
looks like your environment is not properly set for C#/.NET.
System.Windows.Form is a default microsoft assembly for GUI component
(Frame, Button, ..)

could your compile/run any program from your command line ?
could you compile compile/run with Form like this one ?
// --- compile & run -----
csc t.cs && t
// ---- t.cs source ----
using System.Windows.Forms;

class Test : Form
{
 public static void Main()
 {
  Application.Run(new Test());
 }
}
// --------
if yes and your problems remains I am puzzled !...
f not try to set the following env var (and set them acording to your
system)
(do you have latest version of .NET by the way ? between RC1 and final
release namespace System.Winforms became System.Windows.Forms)

PATH=C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.0.3705\

[Csgl-users] Problem when running csgl programs

[Csgl-users] CSGL update

[Lloyd D. <ll...@ga...>]

  a.. version 1.1 released=20

  b.. what you all wait for without daring to ask: a Document-view =
update of CSGL. Commit me to make a lot of change. This new architecture =
lie mainly on 2 new object GLView, an OpenGLControl, displaying the new =
OpenGLModel object.=20
  It also have built in navigation feature.=20
  c.. A document (that is OpenGLModel) could be see on a lot of =
different view at the same time this lead me to create ContextLocal =
object, an object wich transparently manage OpenGLContext local instance =
of any object, and one of its most valuable subclass: DisplayList.=20
  d.. a new example (./examples/OO) which is quite unfinished now, but =
provide a nice skeleton of model viewing application.=20
  help you to go very rapidly in OpenGL code test without bothering with =
all init/GUI/etc.. stuff=20

  e.. now in binary distribution there is lib and libinstall directory =
(respectively build with make and make install commands). The first one =
is an anonymous assembly (which cannot be installed and should lie in =
you application directory), the other one has a strong name and could be =
installed with the install.bat provided=20

  f.. Paul Michael Saunders (nu...@bi...) take the SDL project =
project under his responsability, and could now be found at =
http://cs-sdl.sourceforge.net=20

  g.. a sample, unfinished, implementation of OpenGL extension=20

  h.. Sad news, Jan Nockeman is too busy and leave the project, thank =
you and see you later Jan=20

  i.. I remove OpenGLException.AssertGL() and break it into 2 part:=20
    a.. OpenGLException.Assert(), which test only OpenGL error=20
    b.. SystemError.Assert(), which test win32 error=20
  this for maintenance reason.=20

[Csgl-users] RE: [Csgl-news] CSGL update - texture bug fixed

[Julien A. <ni...@fr...>]

I don't really know why yet but the bug I had with textures on my laptop
disappeared with 1.0. I tried every NeHe sample and they all work fine
although a lot of them flicker wildly and seem to eat every cpu cycle
they can (maybe a thread priority issue). 

Great job !

Subject: [Csgl-news] CSGL update


Hi folks.

I update CSGL just now.
This is a minor update in code quantity but a big one in code quality.

Here are the changes:
1. CSGL is only shipped for OpenGL now.

2. CSGL is now a signed assembly provide with an "install.bat" file
which could install/uninstall it

3. CSGL is shipped with it C# doc (though it is an awfull doc system, in
my humble opinion)

3. lot of debugging, particularly with Dispose() method

4. OpenGLControl is easier to create with a personalized PIXELFORMAT,
just overwrite CreateContext() method

5. ScreenForm work well now, no flickering and cooperate with other of
it kind ! and simpler code

6. of course the traditional site update http://csgl.sourceforge.net

for all this reason I call this release "1.0", as it is preety complete.
the next lacking step are (and contributor wellcome as I don;t really
work fulltime on it now...) 1. adding OpenGL extension 2. provide VS.NET
and NAnt buid file

Hope you will enjoy.
Cheers,
Lloyd

Nice update! The final touch it needed. I'm looking forward to trying it =

About SDL: As C# is currently only available in windows platforms, the =
cross platform capability of SDL seems obsolete. Anyways, it might =
become of interest when mono (www.go-mono.com) is finished.
Whats the state of the last version? Any big things missing?
I might do the maintance if get enough time and if nobody else wants =
to....
