Re: GTK+ 3.16.0 released



Hi;

I thought it would also be good to let people know about this, rendering
windows using OpenGL is also implemented on Microsoft Windows as well,
also using libepoxy.

Provided that libepoxy is appropriately-patched to consider OpenGL 1.1 to be
the core implementation provided by opengl32.dll
 (otherwise it may crash at runtime when you try to call OpenGL 1.1 functions).

You mean all functions that were added in OpenGL 1.1 and not
deprecated after OpenGL 3.2?

GTK+ does not support legacy profiles, so using deprecated, pre-3.2
API is not going to be possible in any case.

Ciao,
 Emmanuele.
