[gl4java-usergroup] animation

[Martin G. <mg...@gm...>]

Hi,

I want to write a typical animation app, i.e. the graphics should
re-rendered 'all the time' (20+ times per second). Is it then possible to
ignore AWT redraw events and redraw the graphics not in the display() method
which is called by the AWT thread, but instead redraw them from the main
thread?

It looked to me like GLAnimCanvas does exactly this internally, but I was
not sure. Anyway, if this is possible, should I use a GLCanvas or
GLAnimCanvas for it? Or would I duplicate most of GL*Canvas by that and had
better set up everything manually?

BTW, nice work!
