The Integration</h2></center>

<ul>
<li>
GL4Java uses the Java Native Interface (JNI) to pass all OpenGL calls from
Java to the machines native OpenGL library.</li>

<ul>&nbsp;
<br>GL4Java has two layers:
<ul>
<li>
Java-Classes</li>

<li>
Native-Library</li>
</ul>

<p><br>Both layers are connected via JNI, where the native library is platform
dependend
<br>and must be ported and compiled for each platform.
