OpenGL 2.0

#1

Hi,

I just downloaded the specs PDF of OGL2.0 and since im a noob i thought it wa worth reading, it’s over 300 pages so by the time i finish this ill be old and gray :slight_smile:

I had a question… i’ve read the first couple pages but im not sure how OGL2.0 is used.
Do i need to download a library, and where do i download it ?

Is this only available for c/c++ ?

I tried searching opengl.org but i cant download anything for opengl2.0 !
Maybe im completely wrong, so please correct me…

thanks,
Galo

goede dag galo!

you can download opengl 2.0 on http://www.opengl.org/documentation/implementations.html for your platform.

it’s not only for vc++, but it’s the most common combination (vc++ and opengl) and you’ll find loads of docs for vc++. but i think they’re developing opengl 2.0 for java, aren’t they?

Yeah i’m still waiting for a decent library for c#, now there’s only CsGL which i don’t like, although you can use managed c++ in c# the implementation of the OGL2.0 wouldn’t be a problem!

#5

Btw, i dont see a download for OGL2.0, only http and ftp link for v1.1,… can anyone help me ?

*edit : sorry, found it via google, why do they name it opengl95.exe ? why not 2.0, well doesn’t matter anyway.
Installed it, now is the time to search how to use this in c# thanks guys :slight_smile:
thanks

There is a .net opengl wrapper by Randy Ridge (real name?) in his Tao framework. his site is under maintenance now, but there seems to be a dowload here. It is used in the Axiom 3d rendering library too (c# Ogre port). It’s not opengl2.0 yet, but i guess that will come.

yeah, it’s confusing that it’s still called opengl95 but it’s the correct file! :slight_smile:

Thanks, downloaded it, looks promesing but there’s no manual for the tao framework to download, ill check on google.

cheers,
Galo
