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 include it in your PATH/CLASSPATH along with the Java 3D jar files.<br> +</p> +<p>NOTE: Installing the j3d or jogl jars and native libs into the "ext" +directory of the JRE is strongly discouraged.
