Benifits of GL Window

Hi

Im not sure if this is already in the forum, I couldnt find it. Does anyone knows the benefits of using GLWindow and Newt in general? And how can u plug it in the application doesnt extend Component…etc?

The main benefit is that it isn’t a Component. Newt is a new windowing API that’s independent of AWT and Swing. So, you won’t be able to integrate with any of those, but it should be much lighter weight and somewhat faster if all you need is a window that you control all drawing into.

Thanks for the reply, i guess i wont be able to use it then since 3D is one window in my application
