All Implemented Interfaces:

ImageObserver, MenuContainer, Serializable, Accessible, OffscreenLayerOption, WindowClosingProtocol, AWTGLAutoDrawable, ComponentEvents, GLAutoDrawable, GLDrawable

public class GLCanvas
extends Canvas
implements AWTGLAutoDrawable, WindowClosingProtocol, OffscreenLayerOption

A heavyweight AWT component which provides OpenGL rendering support. This is the primary implementation of an AWT GLDrawable; GLJPanel is provided for compatibility with Swing user interfaces when adding a heavyweight doesn't work either because of Z-ordering or LayoutManager problems.

Offscreen Layer Remarks

setShallUseOffscreenLayer(true) maybe called to use an offscreen drawable (FBO or PBuffer) allowing the underlying JAWT mechanism to composite the image, if supported.

setShallUseOffscreenLayer(true) is being called if CapabilitiesImmutable.isOnscreen() is false.

Java2D OpenGL Remarks

To avoid any conflicts with a potential Java2D OpenGL context,
you shall consider setting the following JVM properties:

• sun.java2d.opengl=false

• sun.java2d.noddraw=true

This is especially true in case you want to utilize a GLProfile other than GLProfile.GL2, eg. using GLProfile#getMaxFixedFunc().
On the other hand, if you like to experiment with GLJPanel's utilization of Java2D's OpenGL pipeline, you have to set them to

• sun.java2d.opengl=true

• sun.java2d.noddraw=true

Disable Background Erase

GLCanvas tries to disable background erase for the AWT Canvas before native peer creation (X11) and after it (Windows),
utilizing the optional Toolkit method disableBeackgroundErase(java.awt.Canvas).
However if this does not give you the desired results, you may want to disable AWT background erase in general:

• sun.awt.noerasebackground=true

Method Detail

getUpstreamWidget

public final Object getUpstreamWidget()

Description copied from interface: GLAutoDrawable

Method may return the upstream UI toolkit object holding this GLAutoDrawable instance, if exist.

Currently known Java UI toolkits and it's known return types are:

Toolkit	GLAutoDrawable Implementation	~	Return Type of getUpstreamWidget()
NEWT	GLWindow	has a	Window
SWT	GLCanvas	is a	Canvas
AWT	GLCanvas	is a	Canvas
AWT	GLJPanel	is a	JPanel

However, the result may be other object types than the listed above due to new supported toolkits.

This method may also return null if no UI toolkit is being used, as common for offscreen rendering.

Specified by:

getUpstreamWidget in interface GLAutoDrawable

Returns:

setShallUseOffscreenLayer

public void setShallUseOffscreenLayer(boolean v)

Description copied from interface: OffscreenLayerOption

Request an offscreen layer, if supported.

Shall be called before the first NativeSurface.lockSurface(), and hence before realization.

Specified by:

setShallUseOffscreenLayer in interface OffscreenLayerOption

See Also:

OffscreenLayerOption.getShallUseOffscreenLayer(), OffscreenLayerOption.isOffscreenLayerSurfaceEnabled()

getShallUseOffscreenLayer

public final boolean getShallUseOffscreenLayer()

Description copied from interface: OffscreenLayerOption

Returns the property set by OffscreenLayerOption.setShallUseOffscreenLayer(boolean).

Specified by:

getShallUseOffscreenLayer in interface OffscreenLayerOption

isOffscreenLayerSurfaceEnabled

Returns true if this instance uses an offscreen layer, otherwise false.

This instance is an offscreen layer, if setShallUseOffscreenLayer(true) has been called before it's realization and first lock and the underlying implementation supports it.

The return value is undefined before issuing the first NativeSurface.lockSurface().

Specified by:

isOffscreenLayerSurfaceEnabled in interface OffscreenLayerOption

See Also:

OffscreenLayerOption.setShallUseOffscreenLayer(boolean)

getGraphicsConfiguration

public GraphicsConfiguration getGraphicsConfiguration()

Overridden to choose a GraphicsConfiguration on a parent container's GraphicsDevice because both devices

Overrides:

getGraphicsConfiguration in class Component

createContext

public GLContext createContext(GLContext shareWith)

Description copied from interface: GLAutoDrawable

Creates a new context for drawing to this drawable that will optionally share display lists and other server-side OpenGL objects with the specified GLContext.

The GLContext share need not be associated with this GLDrawable and may be null if sharing of display lists and other objects is not desired. See the note in the overview documentation on context sharing.

This GLAutoDrawable implementation holds it's own GLContext reference, thus created a GLContext using this methods won't replace it implicitly. To replace or set this GLAutoDrawable's GLContext you need to call GLAutoDrawable.setContext(GLContext).

The GLAutoDrawable implementation shall also set the context creation flags as customized w/ GLAutoDrawable.setContextCreationFlags(int).

Specified by:

createContext in interface GLAutoDrawable

Specified by:

createContext in interface GLDrawable

setRealized

public void setRealized(boolean realized)

Description copied from interface: GLDrawable

Indicates to on-screen GLDrawable implementations whether the underlying window has been created and can be drawn into. End users do not need to call this method; it is not necessary to call setRealized on a GLCanvas, a GLJPanel, or a GLPbuffer, as these perform the appropriate calls on their underlying GLDrawables internally.

Developers implementing new OpenGL components for various window toolkits need to call this method against GLDrawables obtained from the GLDrawableFactory via the GLDrawableFactory.getGLDrawable() method. It must typically be called with an argument of true when the component associated with the GLDrawable is realized and with an argument of false just before the component is unrealized. For the AWT, this means calling setRealized(true) in the addNotify method and with an argument of false in the removeNotify method.

GLDrawable implementations should handle multiple cycles of setRealized(true) / setRealized(false) calls. Most, if not all, Java window toolkits have a persistent object associated with a given component, regardless of whether that component is currently realized. The GLDrawable object associated with a particular component is intended to be similarly persistent. A GLDrawable is intended to be created for a given component when it is constructed and live as long as that component. setRealized allows the GLDrawable to re-initialize and destroy any associated resources as the component becomes realized and unrealized, respectively.

With an argument of true, the minimum implementation shall call NativeSurface's lockSurface() and if successfull:

• Update the GLCapabilities, which are associated with the attached NativeSurface's AbstractGraphicsConfiguration.
• Release the lock with NativeSurface's unlockSurface().

This is important since NativeSurface's lockSurface() ensures resolving the window/surface handles, and the drawable's GLCapabilities might have changed.

Calling this method has no other effects. For example, if removeNotify is called on a Canvas implementation for which a GLDrawable has been created, it is also necessary to destroy all OpenGL contexts associated with that GLDrawable. This is not done automatically by the implementation.

Specified by:

setRealized in interface GLDrawable

isRealized

public boolean isRealized()

Specified by:

isRealized in interface GLDrawable

Returns:

true if this drawable is realized, otherwise false

display

public void display()

Description copied from interface: GLAutoDrawable

Causes OpenGL rendering to be performed for this GLAutoDrawable in the following order:

• Calling display(..) for all registered GLEventListeners.
• Executes all one-shot GLRunnable, enqueued via GLAutoDrawable.invoke(boolean, GLRunnable).

May be called periodically by a running GLAnimatorControl implementation,
which must register itself with GLAutoDrawable.setAnimator(javax.media.opengl.GLAnimatorControl).

Called automatically by the window system toolkit upon receiving a repaint() request,
except an GLAnimatorControl implementation GLAnimatorControl.isAnimating().

This routine may also be called manually for better control over the rendering process. It is legal to call another GLAutoDrawable's display method from within the display(..) callback.

In case of a new generated OpenGL context, the implementation shall call init(..) for all registered GLEventListeners before making the actual display(..) calls, in case this has not been done yet.

Specified by:

display in interface GLAutoDrawable

See Also:

GLAutoDrawable.setAnimator(javax.media.opengl.GLAnimatorControl)

destroy

public void destroy()

Destroys all resources associated with this GLAutoDrawable, inclusive the GLContext. If a window is attached to it's implementation, it shall be closed. Causes disposing of all OpenGL resources by calling dispose(..) for all registered GLEventListeners. Called automatically by the window system toolkit upon receiving a destroy notification. This routine may be called manually.

This impl. calls this class's removeNotify() AWT override, where the actual implementation resides.

setAnimator

public void setAnimator(GLAnimatorControl animatorControl)

Description copied from interface: GLAutoDrawable

Registers the usage of an animator, an GLAnimatorControl implementation. The animator will be queried whether it's animating, ie periodically issuing GLAutoDrawable.display() calls or not.

This method shall be called by an animator implementation only,
e.g. AnimatorBase.add(javax.media.opengl.GLAutoDrawable), passing it's control implementation,
and AnimatorBase.remove(javax.media.opengl.GLAutoDrawable), passing null.

Impacts GLAutoDrawable.display() and GLAutoDrawable.invoke(boolean, GLRunnable) semantics.

Specified by:

setAnimator in interface GLAutoDrawable

See Also:

GLAutoDrawable.display(), GLAutoDrawable.invoke(boolean, GLRunnable), GLAnimatorControl

getAnimator

public GLAnimatorControl getAnimator()

Specified by:

getAnimator in interface GLAutoDrawable

Returns:

the registered GLAnimatorControl implementation, using this GLAutoDrawable.

See Also:

GLAutoDrawable.setAnimator(javax.media.opengl.GLAnimatorControl), GLAnimatorControl

invoke

public boolean invoke(boolean wait,
             GLRunnable glRunnable)

Description copied from interface: GLAutoDrawable

Enqueues a one-shot GLRunnable, which will be executed within the next GLAutoDrawable.display() call after all registered GLEventListeners display(GLAutoDrawable) methods has been called.

If no GLAnimatorControl is animating (default),
or if the current thread is the animator thread,
a GLAutoDrawable.display() call is issued after enqueue the GLRunnable.
No extra synchronization is performed in case wait is true, since it is executed in the current thread.

If an GLAnimatorControl is animating,
no GLAutoDrawable.display() call is issued, since the animator thread performs it.

If wait is true the call blocks until the glRunnable has been executed.

If wait is true and GLDrawable.isRealized() returns false or GLAutoDrawable.getContext() returns null, the call is ignored and returns false.
This helps avoiding deadlocking the caller.

The internal queue of GLRunnable's is being flushed with GLAutoDrawable.destroy() where all blocked callers are being notified.

Specified by:

invoke in interface GLAutoDrawable

Parameters:

wait - if true block until execution of glRunnable is finished, otherwise return immediatly w/o waiting

glRunnable - the GLRunnable to execute within GLAutoDrawable.display()

Returns:

true if the GLRunnable has been processed or queued, otherwise false.

See Also:

GLAutoDrawable.setAnimator(GLAnimatorControl), GLAutoDrawable.display(), GLRunnable

setContext

public GLContext setContext(GLContext newCtx)

Description copied from interface: GLAutoDrawable

Associate a new context to this drawable and also propagates the context/drawable switch by calling newCtx.setGLDrawable(drawable, true);. drawable might be an inner GLDrawable instance if using a delegation pattern, or this GLAutoDrawable instance.

If the old or new context was current on this thread, it is being released before switching the drawable. The new context will be made current afterwards, if it was current before. However the user shall take extra care that no other thread attempts to make this context current.

Be aware that the old context is still bound to the drawable, and that one context can only be bound to one drawable at one time!

In case you do not intend to use the old context anymore, i.e. not assigning it to another drawable, it shall be destroyed before setting the new context, i.e.:

            GLContext oldCtx = glad.getContext();
            if(null != oldCtx) {
                oldCtx.destroy();
            }
            glad.setContext(newCtx);            
 

This is required, since a context must have a valid drawable at all times and this API shall not restrict the user in any way.

Specified by:

setContext in interface GLAutoDrawable

Parameters:

newCtx - the new context

Returns:

the replaced GLContext, maybe null

See Also:

GLContext.setGLDrawable(GLDrawable, boolean), GLContext.setGLReadDrawable(GLDrawable), GLDrawableHelper.switchContext(GLDrawable, GLContext, GLContext, int)

getDelegatedDrawable

Description copied from interface: GLAutoDrawable

If the implementation uses delegation, return the delegated GLDrawable instance, otherwise return this instance.

Specified by:

getDelegatedDrawable in interface GLAutoDrawable

getContext

public GLContext getContext()

Description copied from interface: GLAutoDrawable

Returns the context associated with this drawable. The returned context will be synchronized. Don't rely on it's identity, the context may change.

Specified by:

getContext in interface GLAutoDrawable

getGL

public GL getGL()

Description copied from interface: GLAutoDrawable

Returns the GL pipeline object this GLAutoDrawable uses. If this method is called outside of the GLEventListener's callback methods (init, display, etc.) it may return null. Users should not rely on the identity of the returned GL object; for example, users should not maintain a hash table with the GL object as the key. Additionally, the GL object should not be cached in client code, but should be re-fetched from the GLAutoDrawable at the beginning of each call to init, display, etc.

Specified by:

getGL in interface GLAutoDrawable

setGL

public GL setGL(GL gl)

Description copied from interface: GLAutoDrawable

Sets the GL pipeline object this GLAutoDrawable uses. This should only be called from within the GLEventListener's callback methods, and usually only from within the init() method, in order to install a composable pipeline. See the JOGL demos for examples.

Specified by:

setGL in interface GLAutoDrawable

Returns:

the set GL pipeline or null if not successful

setAutoSwapBufferMode

public void setAutoSwapBufferMode(boolean onOrOff)

Description copied from interface: GLAutoDrawable

Enables or disables automatic buffer swapping for this drawable. By default this property is set to true; when true, after all GLEventListeners have been called for a display() event, the front and back buffers are swapped, displaying the results of the render. When disabled, the user is responsible for calling GLDrawable.swapBuffers(..) manually.

Specified by:

setAutoSwapBufferMode in interface GLAutoDrawable

GLContext.setContextCreationFlags(int), GLContext.enableGLDebugMessage(boolean)

getContextCreationFlags

public int getContextCreationFlags()

Specified by:

getContextCreationFlags in interface GLAutoDrawable

Returns:

Additional context creation flags

getGLProfile

public GLProfile getGLProfile()

Description copied from interface: GLDrawable

Fetches the GLProfile for this drawable. Returns the GLProfile object, no copy.

Specified by:

getGLProfile in interface GLDrawable

getChosenGLCapabilities

public GLCapabilitiesImmutable getChosenGLCapabilities()

Description copied from interface: GLDrawable

Fetches the GLCapabilitiesImmutable corresponding to the chosen OpenGL capabilities (pixel format / visual / GLProfile) for this drawable.
On some platforms, the pixel format is not directly associated with the drawable; a best attempt is made to return a reasonable value in this case.
This object shall be directly associated to the attached NativeSurface's AbstractGraphicsConfiguration, and if changes are necessary, they should reflect those as well.

Specified by:

getChosenGLCapabilities in interface GLDrawable

Returns:

The immutable queried instance.

getRequestedGLCapabilities

public GLCapabilitiesImmutable getRequestedGLCapabilities()

getNativeSurface

public NativeSurface getNativeSurface()

Description copied from interface: GLDrawable

Returns the underlying native surface which surface handle represents this OpenGL drawable's native resource.

Specified by:

getNativeSurface in interface GLDrawable

See Also:

GLDrawable.getHandle()

getHandle

public long getHandle()

Description copied from interface: GLDrawable

This is the GL/Windowing drawable handle.
It is usually the NativeSurface.getSurfaceHandle(), ie the native surface handle of the underlying windowing toolkit.
However, on X11/GLX this reflects a GLXDrawable, which represents a GLXWindow, GLXPixmap, or GLXPbuffer.
On EGL, this represents the EGLSurface.

Specified by:

getHandle in interface GLDrawable

getFactory

public GLDrawableFactory getFactory()

Description copied from interface: GLDrawable

Return the GLDrawableFactory being used to create this instance.

Specified by:

getFactory in interface GLDrawable

toString

public String toString()

Specified by:

toString in interface GLDrawable

Overrides:

toString in class Component

main

public static void main(String[] args)
