Welcome to the JOGL API Project!
Overview

The JOGL project hosts the development version of the Java Bindings for OpenGL (JSR-231), and is designed to provide hardware-supported 3D graphics to applications written in Java. JOGL is not the official reference implementation of the JSR, but an evolving workspace; snapshots are taken from this workspace which become the official reference implementations of the JSR. JOGL is part of a suite of open-source technologies initiated by the Game Technology Group at Sun Microsystems.

JOGL provides full access to the APIs in the OpenGL 2.0 specification as well as nearly all vendor extensions, and integrates with the AWT and Swing widget sets.

Please see the JOGL demos for illustrations of advanced OpenGL techniques now possible with the Java platform.

Project Status
The intial implementation of the JOGL API is available for download from CVS.
