Hi Emmanuele,
I'm really not working on it - mainly for three reasons: 1) if you want to
use GL, GtkGlExt is "good enough" and integrating it into gtk+ it's not a
good idea;
1) If you think GtkGlExt should not be integrated with GTK+ that's fine
for me.
2) GtkGlExt is good enough for GTK-2.0, I never had a single problem with
GTKGLExt.
3) However GtkGlExt is not GTK-3.0 ready, because it cannot be compiled with
SEAL_ENABLE and SINGLE_INCLUDES...
4) Scientific/engineering applications often use OpenGL, which is a well
established, well documented, industry-standard with a large, vibrant
community, as these foruns clearly show:
http://www.opengl.org/discussion_boards/
So all I am asking the GTK team is, please find a solution regarding OpenGL
support for GTK-3.0... with or without GtkGLExt...
Regards,
Carlos
2) cairo should get GPU acceleration for 2D drawing, which is
what most of users really care about; 3) if you want a 3D canvas you should
be using Clutter.
Integrating raw GL inside a gtk+ application is a niche requirement enough
that I'm not at all sure it should be moved to gtk+ itself. And if you're
dropping into raw GL there is no way you are not a niche use case.
