Re: [sdljava-users] help getting space-invaders to run (GNU/Linux, FC4, GCJ)

[John M. G. <joh...@ya...>]

Ivan -- why use GLEW at all? Is it simply for platform
independence?

On GNU/Linux, SDL by itself doesn't require it at all.
There's a tool called glxinfo that tells all about what
extensions are loaded/available (?), and I'm sure there's
gotta be a way to use glx to do whatever GLEW is doing,
right?

I just took a look at the GLEW mailing list,
https://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?forum_id=43720
and it looks pretty barren.

Ivan -- do you have a GNU/Linux box around for testing
sdljava? I'm guessing you're on some version of MS Windows.

Thanks,
---John
