Noob! getFactory().createGLCanvas()

OpenGL Development JOGL Development
#1

can someone explain why all the jogl tutorials include the statement

         GLCapabilities capabilities = new GLCapabilities();
	         GLCanvas canvas =
	             GLDrawableFactory.getFactory().createGLCanvas(capabilities);

yet I cant find the DrawableFactory.createGLCanvas method in any documentation? This is very frustrating
thanks all,
matt

EDIT: I possibly didn’t make it clear that eclipse is giving me an “unrecognized method” error

Try to use just

new Canvas()

. Right now that’s the preferred way to instantiate a new canvas.

Makes quite a bit more sense… I guess tutorials are tough when things change so much
thanks.
