Java Opengl
Design
The base OpenGL C API is accessed in JOGL via Java Native Interface (JNI) calls. As such, the underlying system must support OpenGL for JOGL to work.
JOGL differs from some other Java OpenGL wrapper libraries in that it merely exposes the procedural OpenGL API via methods on a few classes, rather than attempting to map OpenGL functionality onto the object-oriented programming paradigm. Indeed, the majority of the JOGL code is autogenerated from the OpenGL C header files via a conversion tool named Gluegen, which was programmed specifically to facilitate the creation of JOGL.
This design decision has both its advantages and disadvantages. The procedural and state machine nature of OpenGL is inconsistent with the typical method of programming under Java, which is bothersome to many programmers. However, the straightforward mapping of the OpenGL C API to Java methods makes conversion of existing C applications and example code much simpler. The thin layer of abstraction provided by JOGL makes runtime execution quite efficient, but accordingly is more difficult to code compared to higher-level abstraction libraries like Java3D. Because most of the code is autogenerated, changes to OpenGL can be rapidly added to JOGL.
Status and Standardization
As of 2007, JOGL provides full access to the OpenGL 2.0 specification.
The last 1.1.0 version is the reference implementation for JSR-231 (Java Bindings for OpenGL).
The 1.1.1 release gives limited access to GLU NURBS, providing rendering of curved lines and surfaces via the traditional GLU APIs.
The 1.1.1a release fixes a critical buffer overrun issue, and is otherwise completely compatible with 1.1.1.
A 1.1.2 pre-release was temporarily available but appears to have been abandoned.
Version 2.0 is currently in beta 10, which includes a minor API re-factoring and support for OpenGL profiles GL 1.3 – 3.0, GL 3.1, ES 1.x and ES 2.x.
Java2D / OpenGL interoperability
Since the Java SE 6 version of the Java programming language, Java2D (the API for drawing two dimensional graphics in Java) and JOGL have become interoperable, allowing it to :
Overlay Swing components (lightweight menus, tooltips, and other widgets) on top of OpenGL rendering.
Draw 3D OpenGL graphics on top of Java2D rendering (see here for a button with an OpenGL icon).
Use 3D graphics anywhere where ordinarily a Swing widget would be used. (Inside a JTable, JTree, …)
Draw Java2D graphics on top of 3D OpenGL rendering.
3D Tetrahedron Example
JOGL – 3D Tetrahedron Picture
This program displays a simple 3D rendering of a tetrahedron using JOGL (version 1.x).
JOGLTetrahedron classhis class uses the JOGL API (version 1.x) to render a 3D tetrahedron.
