JOGL Rendering Pipeline

+

A preliminary version of the JOGL rendering pipeline, as described +in issue +229, is now +available on all supported platforms. It should also run on Apple Mac +OSX (x86 or PPC)! However, +there isn't a specific Mac build yet. To run Java 3D on the Mac, just +grab the binary for any other platform (e.g., Windows) and run it. It +won't try to use the DLLs. The JOGL renderer is the default on Mac OSX. +You can select the JOGL renderer on other platforms by setting the "j3d.rend" +system +property +to "jogl", +for example: +

+ +

You will need to download JOGL +and install it into the JRE along with the Java 3D jar files (or +include it in your PATH/CLASSPATH).
+

+

Most Java 3D features are implemented in the JOGL pipeline, but the +following are known to be missing:
+

+ +

There may be others missing, as well. Any missing function will +print +out a message of the form:

+ +

We would appreciate feedback on bugs or problems you run into.
