Re: [Visualpython-users] GtkGLExt vs GtkGLArea

[Jonathan B. <jbr...@ea...>]

I started some skeleton code using gtkglextmm a while ago.  As a new
feature, it has been on hold while we overhaul the Unix installation
tools.  If you want to look at what has been started you can look at the
files xgl2.cpp and xgl2.h in the CVS cvisual module.  We will not be
including the code in any distributions until it has been fully tested. 
You won't even get it to compile without some other patches to the
source tree.  If you want it, ask and you shall recieve.

Even after we have full support for GtkGLext, we will probably keep the
GtkGLarea code around for compatability with the slow movers (eg,
Debian).
