Re: [sdljava-users] glew initialisation too early in gljava

[Ivan Z. G. <iva...@ya...>]

Greetings,

I've changed the code so that it does not call SWIG_glew_init().  The
user of the library must now call this at the appropriate time.

CVS has been updated.  Please let me know if this works for you.  I've
also updated the class comment in GlewImpl.

Thanks,
-Ivan/
