Hello All,

I have been a user of eclipse for a couple of years, and now
I am starting to evaluate it for a product platform.

One of the requirements that I have is multi-platform 3d
rendering.

JOGL seems to fit the bill, can I use JOGL with eclipse? If not
what is the "eclipse way" of using OGL ??

Thanks
Mike

Isn't
http://eclipse-plugins.2y.net/eclipse/plugin_details.jsp?id= 562
OGL1.1 compliant only?

How about using only GLContext from the above + www.lwjgl.org (the latest
CVS) - for the OpenGL API calls. It should work
In theory.

Isn't it possible to mix SWT with Swing/AWT? If this is the case wouldn't
it be possible to open a window with Java3D?

I have used LWJGL and it works quite well with SWT, and there is no need for Swing or AWT to be involved. The two problems I had were flashing when resizing the window, and running a dual graphics card setup (you can't drag the window to the secondary monitor when dual carding which is a more common hardware setup that you might think given multi-GPU cards). I did not explore using buffers (pbuffers I believe) - where you render to a buffer then display.
