The easiest way to run Java 3D applications +using the JOGL +pipeline is via Java Webstart from your browser (with no setup +required). +<a href="https://j3d-webstart.dev.java.net/test/">Click here</a> +to run +a Java 3D example program from your browser via the +JOGL pipeline. These +examples will use JOGL on Mac OS X and the native OpenGL pipeline on +all +other platforms.<br> + +</p> + +<p>The JOGL renderer is the default on Mac OS X. +You can select the JOGL renderer on other platforms by setting the "<code>j3d.rend</code>" +system +property +to "<code>jogl</code>", +for example: +</p> + +<ul> + + <code>java -Dj3d.rend=jogl ClassName</code> +</ul> + +<p>You will need to <a href="https://jogl.dev.java.net/">download +JOGL</a> +and install it into the JRE along with the Java 3D jar files +(or +include it in your PATH/CLASSPATH).<br> + +</p> + +<p>NOTE: You must install <i>both</i> Java 3D and +JOGL into the JRE, +or else you must install <i>neither</i> Java 3D nor JOGL +into the +JRE. If you install Java 3D into the JRE and put JOGL on your +CLASSPATH, the JoglPipeline will fail to find the JOGL classes.</p> + +<h3><a name="More_Information"></a>More +Information</h3> + +<p>For the latest information on Java 3D, see the <a href="https://java3d.dev.java.net/">main Java 3D +project page</a> +on +java.net.<br> + +</p> + +<p>Click <a href="https://java3d.dev.java.net/issues/buglist.cgi?Submit+query=Submit+query&component=java3d&issue_status=NEW&issue_status=STARTED&issue_status=REOPENED">here</a> +for a list of open issues.</p> + +</body> +</html> |
