NAME

OpenGL::Modern - Perl extension Modern OpenGL API 3.1 and greater

SYNOPSIS

  use OpenGL::Modern qw(:all);

DESCRIPTION

OpenGL::Modern provides perl bindings to the OpenGL graphics APIs using the OpenGL Extension Wrangler (GLEW) library. This file was mostly generated by parsing glew.h.

This module updates the original Perl OpenGL bindings OpenGL (abbreviated as POGL) to support modern OpenGL. For this purpose, modern OpenGL APIs are those starting with version 3.1 and higher. OpenGL 3.1 was the first version where the legacy OpenGL functionality from versions 1.x-3.0 was fully deprecated. Much of the functionality that used to be accessed via the extension mechanism in OpenGL now is standardized and in the Core.

EXPORT

None by default.

Perl OpenGL (POGL) and Perl OpenGL::Modern (POGL2) development share common resources. At some point OpenGL::Modern will replace the legacy OpenGL implementation. Together they are referred to as POGL.

Perl OpenGL developer and users lists are at https://sourceforge.net/p/pogl/mailman/?source=navbar

Perl OpenGL IRC is at #pogl on irc.perl.org

POGL2 development will take place on github and the repository is being set up there. The sf.net repository will be the official release repository and is mirrored from github.
