Hi
Dunno if this is the right place to ask, but what happened to the jogl-demos project page jogl-demos.dev.java.net ?, I can’t even get to the project home page to ask for observer status or anything, and I can’t seem to checkout the cvs node either (both wincvs and cli cvs on linux give the following error for cvs checkout ‘User endolf doesn’t have access to project jogl-demos’, confused as i’m trying to checkout, not checkin, all the other projects I have tried work fine so it seems not to be my end of things?

Cheers

The JOGL demos pages are back. (or at least they should be!) Please go to jogl-demos@dev.java.net and let me know if they are, in fact reachable.

Thanks.

Hi
Yup it’s back, and the cvs node is working again too (well, checkout works)

Cheers

The jogl userguide says:
“It is strongly recommended that applications always refetch the GL
and GLU objects out of the GLDrawable upon each call to the init(),
display() and reshape() methods.”

Is this directive violated in the Gears.java demo ? Or, am I not
following the code correctly ?

OK ! reading the directive again, is it because init() is called
only once where the displaylists are created and display()
simply invokes them ?

It’s probably violated in the Gears demo (which is an old GL4Java demo ported to JOGL) so sorry about that. However it is definitely not violated in the other, more advanced, demos.
