Java3d & OpenGL
Hello List, i am writing a rendering software based on OpenGL and now i'm trying to do the GUI components with Java. The rendering software is written in C. I started to create just a simple Canvas3D, then i do some native C calls which render into the current OpenGL context created by Java). So far it works quite good. Obviousely this solution has some problems: 1. Not all Java3d implementations are based on OpenGL. 2. Some Java repaint or whatever events destroy the frame i rendered with my C-lib. (How can i make sure that Java doesn't handle ANY events concerning the Canvas3D) ? 3. Interaction with my scene: I want to implement a trackball for my OpenGL scnene. I get the mouse event trough mouseMoved(MouseEvent e), from there i do native calls for rendering. How can i make sure that only ONE event is handled at any time? You know that it's a bad idea having two different threads drawing into the same context in parallel. What are your experiences? Any comments appreciated...

[ANNOUNCE] Java3D 1.2.1_01 for Linux
The Blackdown Java-Linux Team is proud to announce the availability of the final release of Java3D 1.2.1_01 for Linux: The Java 3D API enables the creation of three-dimensional graphics applications and Internet-based 3D applets. It provides high-level constructs for creating and manipulation of 3D geometry and building the structures used in rendering that geometry. With this software, you can efficiently define and render very large virtual worlds. Requirements and installation instructions can be found at http://www.blackdown.org/java-linux/java2-status/README-3D121_01 Please choose one of our FTP mirrors (http://www.blackdown.org/java-linux/mirrors.html) for downloading. Documentation for the Java3D 1.2.1 API can be downloaded from http://java.sun.com/products/java-media/3D/download.html General information about Java3D and demos are available from http://java.sun.com/products/java-media/3D/index.html Blackdown Java-Linux Team -- Juergen Kreileder, Blackdown Java-Linux Team http://www.blackdown.org/java-linux/java2-status/ Visit the Java 2 Platform on Linux BOF at JavaOne: http://servlet.java.sun.com/javaone/conf/bofs/1745/0-sf2001.jsp -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
