ABSTRACT

DEPRECATED The Gtk2::GLExt module allows a Perl developer to use GtkGLExt, an OpenGL extension to GTK+ by Naofumi Yasufuku, with Gtk2-Perl.

DESCRIPTION

NOTICE NOTICE NOTICE NOTICE NOTICE NOTICE NOTICE NOTICE NOTICE NOTICE

This module has been deprecated by the Gtk-Perl project. This means that the module will no longer be updated with security patches, bug fixes, or when changes are made in the Perl ABI. The Git repo for this module has been archived (made read-only), it will no longer possible to submit new commits to it. You are more than welcome to ask about this module on the Gtk-Perl mailing list, but our priorities going forward will be maintaining Gtk-Perl modules that are supported and maintained upstream; this module is neither.

Since this module is licensed under the LGPL v2.1, you may also fork this module, if you wish, but you will need to use a different name for it on CPAN, and the Gtk-Perl team requests that you use your own resources (mailing list, Git repos, bug trackers, etc.) to maintain your fork going forward.

NOTE NOTE NOTE NOTE NOTE NOTE NOTE NOTE NOTE NOTE NOTE NOTE NOTE NOTE

The Gtk2::GLExt module allows a Perl developer to use GtkGLExt, an OpenGL extension to GTK+ by Naofumi Yasufuku, with Gtk2-Perl.

Like the Gtk2 module on which it depends, Gtk2::GLExt follows the C API of gtkglext as closely as possible while still being perlish. Thus, the C API reference remains the canonical documentation.

You can find out everything you need to know about GtkGLExt at its homepage, http://gtkglext.sourceforge.net

This module does not include actual OpenGL bindings; you need to get those separately. Search CPAN for OpenGL, SDL::OpenGL, and PDL::Graphics::OpenGL; your mileage may vary.
