glDesigner version 0.2

glDesigner is a gtk2-GUI to work with OpenGL-Objects. A part of this project is glInterpret which implements an interpreter for OpenGL. This project was started to be an interactive Tutorial for OpenGL.

Installation for unix-like systems is pretty easy. Only type:

./configure
make
make install

and it's all done. Please note that you need gtk2, glut and both devel packages. Now you could exec
- glDesigner and
- glInterpret

At the moment there are no manpages and online help. (version 0.2!)

The windows build is more complicated. You need gtk2, glut and I use Dev-C++ as development environment. In src/ only type:

make -f Makefile.win32

to see further instructions for compiling. But note, windows compiling is at the moment not as easy as unix compiling. Perhaps you need to change your PATH environment and edit Makefile.win32. Installing gtk2 is also not very easy. (Look at http://www.gtk.org and search windows)

glDesigner is tested and developed on an Linux System. Compiling with Linux should be no problem. It's also tested on Windows without problems. Some time ago I've tested glDesigner with Solaris x86. It works without problems. But I changed a lot of code, so I must test it again later.

For glInterpret applies the same as above. But I tested glInterpret also with Solaris sparc and IRIX. This should work, because I've changed no code in glInterpret since the last test.
