  • Setting up Opengl, GLM, and FLTK
    Comp 175 - Graphics In Class Lab 0 Setting Up OpenGL, GLM, and FLTK Description: In this lab, your task is to set up your development environment for future labs and assignments that use OpenGL, the GLM library, and FLTK. OpenGL is the standard (3D) graphics library. Although there are other graphics libraries out there (e.g. Vulcan, DirectX or Direct3D by Microsoft, Metal by Apple, and Mantle by AMD), OpenGL remains the most common and most popular API for implementing 3D graphics applications. For convenience, we will be using the GLM library (GLM stands for OpenGL Mathematics) to do all of our linear algebra. The library will help keep the code readable when manipulating matrices, vectors, points, and such. Finally, we will be using FLTK (version 1.3.4) in conjunction with OpenGL. FLTK is a cross-platform, lightweight graphical user interface (GUI) library that supports OpenGL canvas. Since FLTK is cross-platform, you should be able to use your own favorite operating system and windows environment. What a cross-platform toolkit means is that you will write your GUI code once, and you can compile the code in Windows, Mac, and whatever operating system that FLTK supports. The resulting compiled program will be native to the operating system (whereas Java is also a cross-platform language, but Java applications are run in a virtual machine). Personally, I use a Windows machine at home and at work. I have therefore written the initial support code and demo applications in Windows (using Visual Studio 2017 Enterprise edition). For this class, we will support Windows and Mac development environments.

  • Doing 3D with Tcl
    5th European Tcl/Tk User Meeting May 2005 Doing 3D with Tcl Paul Obermeier [email protected] Abstract This paper presents an approach called tclogl, which offers the 3D functionality of OpenGL at the Tcl scripting level. Tclogl is an improved and enhanced OpenGL binding based on the work done with Frustum by Roger E Critchlow. The paper starts with an overview of existing 3D libraries with a Tcl sripting interface. Different solution approaches are discussed and compared against the given requirements. The choosen implementation, which relies heavily on SWIG, is explained in detail in the main section of this paper. Common pitfalls when programming OpenGL in Tcl, as well as open issues of this approach are shown. Finally the results of a range of test programs and some demonstration applications are shown. 1 Overview Hardware accelerated 3D capabilities are available nowadays on nearly every PC. There is also a broad range of programming libraries for doing 3D visualization, coming from different application domains, like simulation, gaming, visualization or animation. These libraries differ in availability on computer architectures and operating systems, complexity and richness of supplied functionality, as well as the supported language bindings. There are two low-level (light-weight) graphic APIs in common use today: OpenGL and DirectX. While DirectX from Microsoft is available only on machines running the Windows operating system, OpenGL is running on PC's as well as on workstations. OpenGL also has a software-only implementation called "Mesa", so you can run OpenGL based programs even in virtual machines or over a network. OpenGL libraries are part of all major operating systems distributions.
