    public class GLJPanel

extends JPanel
implements GLAutoDrawable

A lightweight Swing component which provides OpenGL rendering support. Provided for compatibility with Swing user interfaces when adding a heavyweight doesn't work either because of Z-ordering or LayoutManager problems.

The GLJPanel can be made transparent by creating it with a GLCapabilities object with alpha bits specified and calling `setOpaque(boolean)`(false). Pixels with resulting OpenGL alpha values less than 1.0 will be overlaid on any underlying Swing rendering.

Notes specific to the Reference Implementation: This component attempts to use hardware-accelerated rendering via pbuffers and falls back on to software rendering if problems occur. Note that because this component attempts to use pbuffers for rendering, and because pbuffers can not be resized, somewhat surprising behavior may occur during resize operations; the `GLEventListener.init(javax.media.opengl.GLAutoDrawable)` method may be called multiple times as the pbuffer is resized to be able to cover the size of the GLJPanel. This behavior is correct, as the textures and display lists for the GLJPanel will have been lost during the resize operation. The application should attempt to make its GLEventListener.init() methods as side-effect-free as possible.

Constructor Detail

### GLJPanel

    public GLJPanel()

  Creates a new GLJPanel component with a default set of OpenGL capabilities and using the default OpenGL capabilities selection mechanism.

### GLJPanel

    public GLJPanel(GLCapabilities capabilities)

  Creates a new GLJPanel component with the requested set of OpenGL capabilities, using the default OpenGL capabilities selection mechanism.

### GLJPanel

    public GLJPanel(GLCapabilities capabilities,
                    GLCapabilitiesChooser chooser,
                    GLContext shareWith)

  Creates a new GLJPanel component. The passed GLCapabilities specifies the OpenGL capabilities for the component; if null, a default set of capabilities is used. The GLCapabilitiesChooser specifies the algorithm for selecting one of the available GLCapabilities for the component; a DefaultGLCapabilitesChooser is used if null is passed for this argument. The passed GLContext specifies an OpenGL context with which to share textures, display lists and other OpenGL state, and may be null if sharing is not desired. See the note in the overview documentation on context sharing.

Method Detail

### display

    public void display()

  Description copied from interface: `GLAutoDrawable`
  Causes OpenGL rendering to be performed for this GLAutoDrawable by calling `display` for all registered `GLEventListener`s. Called automatically by the window system toolkit upon receiving a repaint() request. this routine may be called manually for better control over the rendering process. It is legal to call another GLAutoDrawable's display method from within the `display` callback.

  Specified by:
    `display` in interface `GLAutoDrawable`

### paintComponent

    protected void paintComponent(Graphics g)

  Overridden to cause OpenGL rendering to be performed during repaint cycles. Subclasses which override this method must call super.paintComponent() in their paintComponent() method in order to function properly.

  Overrides:

    `paintComponent` in class `javax.swing.JComponent`

  Overrides:
    `paintComponent` in class `JComponent`

### addNotify

    public void addNotify()

  Overridden to track when this component is added to a container. Subclasses which override this method must call super.addNotify() in their addNotify() method in order to function properly.

  Overrides:

    `addNotify` in class `java.awt.Component`

  Overrides:
    `addNotify` in class `JComponent`

### removeNotify

    public void removeNotify()

  Overridden to track when this component is removed from a container. Subclasses which override this method must call super.removeNotify() in their removeNotify() method in order to function properly.

  Overrides:

    `removeNotify` in class `java.awt.Component`

  Overrides:
    `removeNotify` in class `JComponent`

### reshape

    public void reshape(int x,
                        int y,
                        int width,
                        int height)

  Overridden to cause `GLDrawableHelper.reshape(javax.media.opengl.GLAutoDrawable, int, int, int, int)` to be called on all registered `GLEventListener`s. Subclasses which override this method must call super.reshape() in their reshape() method in order to function properly.

  Overrides:

    `reshape` in class `java.awt.Component`

  Overrides:
    `reshape` in class `JComponent`

### setOpaque

    public void setOpaque(boolean opaque)

  Overrides:
    `setOpaque` in class `JComponent`

### addGLEventListener

    public void addGLEventListener(GLEventListener listener)

  Description copied from interface: `GLAutoDrawable`
  Adds a `GLEventListener` to this drawable. If multiple listeners are added to a given drawable, they are notified of events in an arbitrary order.

  Specified by:
    `addGLEventListener` in interface `GLAutoDrawable`

### removeGLEventListener

    public void removeGLEventListener(GLEventListener listener)

  Description copied from interface: `GLAutoDrawable`
  Removes a `GLEventListener` from this drawable. Note that if this is done from within a particular drawable's `GLEventListener` handler (reshape, display, etc.) that it is not guaranteed that all other listeners will be evaluated properly during this update cycle.

  Specified by:
    `removeGLEventListener` in interface `GLAutoDrawable`

### createContext

    public GLContext createContext(GLContext shareWith)

  Description copied from interface: `GLDrawable`
  Creates a new context for drawing to this drawable that will optionally share display lists and other server-side OpenGL objects with the specified GLContext.

  The GLContext `share` need not be associated with this GLDrawable and may be null if sharing of display lists and other objects is not desired. See the note in the overview documentation on context sharing.

  Specified by:
    `createContext` in interface `GLDrawable`

### setRealized

    public void setRealized(boolean realized)

  Description copied from interface: `GLDrawable`
  Indicates to on-screen GLDrawable implementations whether the underlying window has been created and can be drawn into. This method must be called from GLDrawables obtained from the GLDrawableFactory via the `GLDrawableFactory.getGLDrawable()` method. It must typically be called with an argument of `true` in the `addNotify` method of components performing OpenGL rendering and with an argument of `false` in the `removeNotify` method. Calling this method has no other effects. For example, if `removeNotify` is called on a Canvas implementation for which a GLDrawable has been created, it is also necessary to destroy all OpenGL contexts associated with that GLDrawable. This is not done automatically by the implementation. It is not necessary to call `setRealized` on a GLCanvas, a GLJPanel, or a GLPbuffer, as these perform the appropriate calls on their underlying GLDrawables internally..

  Specified by:
    `setRealized` in interface `GLDrawable`

### getContext

    public GLContext getContext()

  Description copied from interface: `GLAutoDrawable`
  Returns the context associated with this drawable. The returned context will be synchronized.

  Specified by:
    `getContext` in interface `GLAutoDrawable`

### getGL

    public GL getGL()

  Description copied from interface: `GLAutoDrawable`
  Returns the `GL` pipeline object this GLAutoDrawable uses. If this method is called outside of the `GLEventListener`'s callback methods (init, display, etc.) it may return null. Users should not rely on the identity of the returned GL object; for example, users should not maintain a hash table with the GL object as the key. Additionally, the GL object should not be cached in client code, but should be re-fetched from the GLAutoDrawable at the beginning of each call to init, display, etc.

  Specified by:
    `getGL` in interface `GLAutoDrawable`

### setGL

    public void setGL(GL gl)

  Description copied from interface: `GLAutoDrawable`
  Sets the `GL` pipeline object this GLAutoDrawable uses. This should only be called from within the GLEventListener's callback methods, and usually only from within the init() method, in order to install a composable pipeline. See the JOGL demos for examples.

  Specified by:
    `setGL` in interface `GLAutoDrawable`

### setAutoSwapBufferMode

    public void setAutoSwapBufferMode(boolean onOrOff)

  Description copied from interface: `GLAutoDrawable`
  Enables or disables automatic buffer swapping for this drawable. By default this property is set to true; when true, after all GLEventListeners have been called for a display() event, the front and back buffers are swapped, displaying the results of the render. When disabled, the user is responsible for calling `GLDrawable.swapBuffers()` manually.

  Specified by:
    `setAutoSwapBufferMode` in interface `GLAutoDrawable`

### getAutoSwapBufferMode

    public boolean getAutoSwapBufferMode()

  Description copied from interface: `GLAutoDrawable`
  Indicates whether automatic buffer swapping is enabled for this drawable. See `GLAutoDrawable.setAutoSwapBufferMode(boolean)`.

  Specified by:
    `getAutoSwapBufferMode` in interface `GLAutoDrawable`

### swapBuffers

    public void swapBuffers()

  Description copied from interface: `GLDrawable`
  Swaps the front and back buffers of this drawable. For `GLAutoDrawable` implementations, when automatic buffer swapping is enabled (as is the default), this method is called automatically and should not be called by the end user.

  Specified by:
    `swapBuffers` in interface `GLDrawable`

### shouldPreserveColorBufferIfTranslucent

    public boolean shouldPreserveColorBufferIfTranslucent()

  For a translucent GLJPanel (one for which `setOpaque`(false) has been called), indicates whether the application should preserve the OpenGL color buffer (GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT) for correct rendering of the GLJPanel and underlying widgets which may show through portions of the GLJPanel with alpha values less than 1. Most Swing implementations currently expect the GLJPanel to be completely cleared (e.g., by `glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT | GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT)`), but for certain optimized Swing implementations which use OpenGL internally, it may be possible to perform OpenGL rendering using the GLJPanel into the same OpenGL drawable as the Swing implementation uses.

### getChosenGLCapabilities

    public GLCapabilities getChosenGLCapabilities()

  Description copied from interface: `GLDrawable`
  Fetches the `GLCapabilities` corresponding to the chosen OpenGL capabilities (pixel format / visual) for this drawable. Some drawables, in particular on-screen drawables, may be created lazily; null is returned if the drawable is not currently created or if its pixel format has not been set yet. On some platforms, the pixel format is not directly associated with the drawable; a best attempt is made to return a reasonable value in this case.

  Specified by:
    `getChosenGLCapabilities` in interface `GLDrawable`
