This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the same terms as Perl itself. Perl OpenGL: a.k.a. POGL As of OpenGL-0.57 POGL now requires FreeGLUT (GLUT on Mac OS X) for full functionality: http://freeglut.sourceforge.net/ This was due to licensing constraints and lack of window close events in GLUT. Efforts are being made to support the original GLUT with reduced functionality and limited to the common subset of operations. NOTE: FreeGLUT distributions on Linux are deployed as libglut.so files, making it difficult to detect whether GLUT or FreeGLUT is installed. As such, FreeGLUT is assumed. See INSTALL for options to override this default. NOTE: POGL automatically installs a binary FreeGLUT library on 32bit win32 perl platforms. POGL provides access to most of the OpenGL 1.0, 1.1, and 1.2 APIs, and many OpenGL Extensions, such as Framebuffer Objects (FBOs) and Vertex Array Objects (VBOs). Some amount of GLU is supported, and GLUT is completely supported up to API version 3, with some support for 4.0 and FreeGlut 2.4.0. A small portion of GLX and X11 may still be supported, but this is deprecated in favor of FreeGLUT and will be removed in the future. If you use this functionality, please let us know. Compatibility notes with OpenGL 0.4: The OpenGL 0.4 library, written by Stan Melax, contains more support for some SGI specific functions then 0.5, so you may wish to stay with 0.4 on an SGI system. For other machines, 0.5 should greatly improve compatibility (compiling where 0.4 wouldn't have). Code-level compatibility with OpenGL 0.4 is available if you refer to OpenGL simply via 'use OpenGL;'. If you request specific packages (such as 'use OpenGL qw(glfunctions glconstants glutfunctions);'), you'll get 0.5 specific support. For more information, please read the OpenGL manual, available in OpenGL.pod. Portions of this module that directly derive from Stan's code are marked with "Melax" comments, and his copyright is described in the COPYRIGHT file. As this library is a simple binding between Perl and any library that complies with the OpenGL API, this module should interoperate seamlessly with any other modules that make use of OpenGL directly or (through another library) indirectly. For build instructions, please see the INSTALL file. For a brief description of what functions are supported, please read "SUPPORTS", and better yet read the two sample files, test.pl and isosurf.pl. Thanks for help developing this module goes to Stan Melax, Cass Everitt, Alligator Descarte, and probably others that I've forgotten. Happy Hacking, Kenneth Albanowski As of April 13, 2007, Bob Free has assumed primary ownership of this module. As of July 03, 2011, Chris Marshall started the Perl OpenGL Project at http://sourceforge.net/projects/pogl/ . All development and module support going forward has moved there. Chris Marshall is the current maintainer of this module.

Add more vertex_array constants (and move the definition earlier). Exchange (default) arguments for glp*: move display after window (should not break old stuff, since there was/is no way to query the display and window). New function $d = glpDisplay() (croaks on failure). Make glpOpenWindow() return the window handle. New functions with signatures void glpMoveResizeWindow(int x, int y, unsigned int width, unsigned int height, Window w, Display* display); void glpMoveWindow(int x, int y, Window w, Display* display); void glpResizeWindow(unsigned int width, unsigned int height, Window w, Display* display); (w and display are optional). 0.52: More of the portability, bug fixes, and examples. New option -steal for glpOpenWindow() to allow drawing into an existing window (no "Visual" syncronization yet). GL_EXT_vertex_array done on the level of cpp. 0.51: Portability enhancement (X and OS/2 PM), bug fixes, examples enhanced. _have_glp() should be used instead of _have_glx to test for presence of glp* functions. Remap OpenGL 1.1 functions into GL_EXT_vertex_array interface if needed.
