build.xml is too big to send as a message here, unfortunately!

If anyone wants it, (or the full JOGL setup), just ping me an email. It's ~3.6Mb tar.gz, so it'll sneak through as an email without too many problems :-)

Hi all,

I've been tinkering with JOGL under IRIX, and I've got it working AFAIK (i.e. basic demos seem to be OK).

Hacks were...

1/ Add new rule to build.xml (I duplicated linux & removed the Cg support, as I'm using gcc). If anyone wants it, I'll ping it to them, no problem.

2/ RTLD_DEFAULT is required (not defined in SGI's dlfcn.h); rudely hacked this in as a temporary measure into /usr/include/dlfcn.h as #define RTLD_DEFAULT ( (void*) 0)
I'm unsure if this will come back to bite me w.r.t. JOGL, SGI man pages don't mention a null ptr... should put this tidly somewhere inside JOGL. It'll definitely bite me 'cos I have hacked a system header... :-)

3/ In jogl/src/native/jogl/JAWT_DrawingSurfaceInfo.c:
Changed "#elif defined(linux) || defined(__sun)" to "#elif defined(linux) || defined(__sun) || defined(__sgi)"
Added glXGetProcAddressARB by changing "#ifdef __sun" wrapper to "#if defined(__sun) || defined(__sgi)"

4/ Changed src/net/java/games/gluegen/StructLayout.java:
Added "(os.startsWith("irix") && cpu.equals("mips")) ||" to support SGI

5/ jogl.properties: set java.home.dir=/usr/java2 (otherwise we get set to /usr/java2/.. - and then fail to find any include subdirs)

6/ Biggie - don't forget to read the "Build" docs, as I missed the URL on the front page, and jollied off using ant-1.6 - BOOM! ant-1.5.2, works a treat.

Other than that, it's fairly simple. I'm assuming (ho ho) that the Solaris/Linux X11 code will work 100% without modification for an SGI...

Well, hope someone finds it useful!

Cheers,

Ian

Hi all,

I've been trying the various JOGL demos to test the pbuffer support under X11 - under Linux, AFAIK, the hwShadowmapsSimple should work.

but... just a blank window appears, no textual output. If I run (e.g.) the gears demo, it works a treat, and I get:

[jogl-demos]$ java -classpath ../jogl/build/jogl.jar:.  -Djava.library.path=../jogl/build/obj demos/gears/Gears

CANVAS GL IS: net.java.games.jogl.impl.x11.X11GLImpl
CANVAS GLU IS: net.java.games.jogl.impl.GLUImpl
INIT GL IS: net.java.games.jogl.impl.x11.X11GLImpl
GL_VENDOR: NVIDIA Corporation
GL_RENDERER: GeForce4 420 Go/AGP/SSE2
GL_VERSION: 1.4.1 NVIDIA 53.28

glLoadTransposeMatrixfARB() supported: true
GL_VENDOR: NVIDIA Corporation
GL_RENDERER: GeForce4 420 Go/AGP/SSE2
GL_VERSION: 1.4.1 NVIDIA 53.28

glLoadTransposeMatrixfARB() supported: true

Similar results seen with Solaris build (i.e. shadow mapping demo fails to produce anything, gears works fine). Any advice greatly appreciated. I'm looking to use pbuffers for off-screen rendering...

Cheers,

Ian
