OGL

Synopsis

A fork of the OpenGL 2.2.1.1 package.

Modifications to OpenGL IO using the -XGeneralizedNewtypeDeriving extension create context sensitive MonadIO aliases.

Motivation

• Simplify concurrent OpenGL applications by explicitly tagging OpenGL code/contexts.
• Enforce static type checking on commands that can only be executed in certain OpenGL contexts (sending vertex data in immediate-mode for example).

Related Software

• GLFW-OGL - A sloppy port of the GLFW package to OGL.

Caveats

• Graphics.Rendering.OGL.GLU.* is untested.
