NAME

6       PDL::Graphics::OpenGL::Perl::OpenGL - PDL TriD OpenGL interface using
7       POGL
8

VERSION

10       Version 0.01_10
11

SYNOPSIS

13       This module provides the glue between the Perl OpenGL functions and the
14       API defined by the internal PDL::Graphics::OpenGL one. It also supports
15       any miscellaneous OpenGL or GUI related functionality to support
16       PDL::Graphics::TriD refactoring.
17
18       You should eventually be able to replace:
19
20           use PDL::Graphics::OpenGL
21       by
22           use PDL::Graphics::OpenGL::Perl::OpenGL;
23
24       This module also includes support for FreeGLUT and GLUT instead of
25       X11+GLX as mechanism for creating windows and graphics contexts.
26

EXPORT

28       See the documentation for the OpenGL module.  More details to follow as
29       the refactored TriD module interface and build environment matures

FUNCTIONS

32   TBD
33   TBD
34   new($class,$options,[$window_type])
35       Returns a new OpenGL object with attributes specified in the options
36       field, and of the 3d window type, if specified.  These attributes are:
37
38         x,y - the position of the upper left corner of the window (0,0)
39         width,height - the width and height of the window in pixels (500,500)
40         parent - the parent under which the new window should be opened (root)
41         mask - the user interface mask (StructureNotifyMask)
42         attributes - attributes to pass to glXChooseVisual
43
44       Allowed 3d window types, case insensitive, are:
45
46         pdl-legacy-x11 - use deprecated PDL::PP OpenGL interface
47         x11  - use Perl OpenGL (POGL) bindings and X11 windows
48                (supports PDL::Graphics::TriD::Tk use)
49         glut - use Perl OpenGL bindings and GLUT windows (no Tk)
50
51   default GLUT callbacks
52       These routines are set as the default GLUT callbacks for when GLUT
53       windows are used for PDL/POGL.  Their only function at the moment is to
54       drive an fake XEvent queue to feed the existing TriD GUI controls.  At
55       some point, the X11 stuff will the deprecated and we can rewrite this
56       more cleanly.
57
58   default_options
59       default options for object oriented methods
60
61   XPending()
62       OO interface to XPending
63
64   XResizeWindow(x,y)
65       OO interface to XResizeWindow
66
67   glpXNextEvent()
68       OO interface to glpXNextEvent
69
70   glpRasterFont()
71       OO interface to the glpRasterFont function
72
73   AUTOLOAD
74       If the function is not prototyped in OO we assume there is no explicit
75       mention of the three identifying parameters (Display, Window, Context)
76       and try to load the OpenGL function.
77
78   glXSwapBuffers
79       OO interface to the glXSwapBuffers function

SUPPORT

89       PDL uses a mailing list support model.  The Perldl mailing list is the
90       best for questions, problems, and feature discussions with other PDL
91       users and PDL developers.
