Im sorry but i am horribly confused about creating and binding a context to GL! What exactly is the recommended Window ToolKit? In the FAQ you can read, awt and swing are bad but i cant get the native Window toolkit running. http://kenai.com/projects/jogl/forums/forum/topics/1691-How-to-create-a-native-window- <- i found this here where you can see how to create a native window. But i have no idea how to get a GLDrawable out of the window in order to add it to an Animator. If this question doesnt belong here please forgive me! Since this is my problem with the "getting started" part.
