ANNOUNCE: GtkGLExt 0.6.0



Application
===========

GtkGLExt 0.6.0

Description
===========

GtkGLExt is an OpenGL extension to GTK. It provides the GDK objects to
support OpenGL rendering in GTK, and GtkWidget API add-ons to make GTK+
widgets OpenGL-capable.

The official web site is:
  http://gtkglext.sourceforge.net/

The official download & development project site is:
  http://sourceforge.net/projects/gtkglext/

Enhancements
============

- Bump the API version to 1.0. Use new "gtkglext-1.0" package name.
  Major API changes:
  * gtk_gl_init() library initialization. Now explicit
    gdk_gl_query_extension() call is not needed. Such required
    checks are done by gtk_gl_init().
  * gdk_gl_draw_*() geometric object rendering functions imported
    from GLUT.
  * gdk_gl_query_get_proc_address() and run-time OpenGL extension
    testing functions.
  * gdk_gl_context_get_current(), gdk_gl_drawable_get_current().
- X11: Standard RGB colormap sharing using the ICCCM conventions
  (GTK-2.1 or above).
- gtk_widget_set_gl_capability() improvements.
  Code clean up, top-level window colormap installation feature
- GTK style debug options and environment variables.
- New demo programs and useful program template written by Alif 
  Wahid. Thank you, Alif ;-)

Fixes
=====

- GTK-2.1 support bugfixes and improvements.
  GTK+-2.1.4 or above is required. Some serious X error may be
  arised with GTK+ <= 2.1.3.
- Win32: pixel format selection fix.
