| | OpenGL plus plus - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | OpenGL++ (OGL++) was intended to offer a selection of routines and standardized data structures to dramatically simplify writing "real" programs using OpenGL. | | | Work on OpenGL++ ended when SGI decided to partner with Microsoft instead, leading to the Fahrenheit project, which also died. | | | Much of OGL++ was a combination of ideas from earlier SGI projects in the same vein, namely Open Inventor which offered ease-of-use, and OpenGL Performer which was written separately from Inventor to deliver a system that optimized scene graphs for increased performance and exploited scalable architectures. |

| | OpenGL ES Overview |
| | Although the OpenGL ES specification defines a particular graphics processing pipeline, individual calls can be executed on dedicated hardware, run as software routines on the system CPU, or implemented as a combination of both dedicated hardware and software routines. | | | Based on OpenGL, OpenGL ES is well structured with an intuitive design and logical commands. | | | OpenGL ES is designed to accommodate these differences by requiring a minimum footprint with minimum data storage requirements, minimized instruction/data traffic, and is both integer and floating point friendly. |

| | OpenGL is available on all other major computer platforms, including IRIX, Solaris OE, HP-UX, AIX, Windows NT®, Windows® 98 and Mac OS X. An industry-wide architecture review board governs the evolution and ongoing development of OpenGL. | | | Introduced 10 years ago by SGI, OpenGL is now the premier environment used by software developers to create interactive 2D and 3D visual applications for computer systems ranging from consumer PCs to graphics workstations and supercomputers. | | | The OpenGL 1.4 specification evolved with input from both the OpenGL ARB, an independent consortium, and interested additional participants, reflecting predominant trends in the graphics industry. |

| | OpenGL is a powerful software interface used to produce high-quality, computer- generated images and interactive applications using 2D and 3D objects and color bitmaps and images. | | | Gradually, with each iteration of OpenGL, it moved from a dependence on SGI hardware and IRIX (their version of Unix) to a software interface that frees you from a given hardware platform. | | | OpenGL is really a hardware-independent specification of a programming interface, and you use a particular implementation of it on a particular kind of hardware. |

| | OpenGL was to be a state-of-the-art API that could be implemented efficiently on a wide variety of computers. | | | Finally, the Open Source community (notably the Mesa project) is scrambling to provide OpenGL support for computers of any type, whether or not they use one of Microsoft's operating systems. | | | In fact, for a considerable time Microsoft chose not to support OpenGL on Windows 95 at all, which made it impossible for users of OpenGL-based applications on Windows NT to run them on Windows 95. |

| | Mini vMac - a miniature Macintosh emulator |
| | The idea is to use OpenGL, which seems to be the only way to avoid the double buffering done by OS X. This made drawing much faster on my development machine (though still nowhere near the speed of the OS 9 version). | | | There are a number of things that still need to be looked into for the Macintosh SE emulation, but it seems to work as is. Future versions may improve the accuracy of the emulation, as is usual for Mini vMac. | | | The other motivation was to figure out the emulation of ADB for keyboard and mouse, since that will also be needed to emulate any later machine. |
