JogAmp Deployment Enhancements: Automatic loading of native JARs (Applet/Application)

Currently implemented in modules GlueGen and JOGL. TODO: JOAL and JOCL.

jogamp-next points now to the signed beta build gluegen_410-joal_213-jogl_489-jocl_424-signed.

See how it (NApplet) works online on the new JOGL Applet Test page.

Without the need for using

  • our Applet-Launcher
  • the JNLP extension
  • setting up the native library folder for applications

we automatically Continue reading “JogAmp Deployment Enhancements: Automatic loading of native JARs (Applet/Application)”

Oracle Gives up on Java3D (and JOGL) for RIA (Webstart and Applets)

I couldn’t resist to blog this here since I spontaneously spit coffee on my keyboard and ROTFL 🙂

Oracle Gives up on Java3D (and JOGL) for RIA (Webstart and Applets)

So after we have received quite some emails (some ignore) and even a bugreport about JOGL 1.1.1, which is no more working online and no more developed since .. errrrNovember 2009, Oracle finally made a statement deeply hidden in their support section.

Well, don’t worry, we are still up and running.

JOGL Website Updates & Docs

Beautified the JOGL Test Applet page and replaced the applet-tag with a object-embed mixed one.

Added a little a NEWT Overview writeup.

.. and fixed the html code a bit.

This just reminds me about previous code changes in regards to the Gears ES1 | ES2 test code.
Their common VBO code[v2.0-rc3] uses interleaved arrays,
which is now possible with our managed VBO util GLArrayDataServer.

JogAmp Release v2.0-rc3

v2.0-rc3 released ..

As described earlier, v2.0-rc3 follows the new FHS

JOGL Embedded Device Status (p1)

To perform the JogAmp embedded device development for our SIGGRAPH2011 BOF,
Rami and I setup up the following embedded devices:

JogAmp @ SIGGRAPH2011 ..

Once again, we will be at SIGGRAPH2011 with our own BOF Session:

JogAmp: 2D/3D & Multimedia Across Devices
Tuesday, 9 August | 2:30 pm – 4:30 pm | Probably: Vancouver Convention Centre
JogAmp provides JOGL (OpenGL), JOCL (OpenCL) across devices on top of Java.
Showcasing Resolution Independent Curve, Font and UI GPU Rendering on desktop and mobile (Android, etc).

Our goal is to Continue reading “JogAmp @ SIGGRAPH2011 ..”

Resolution independent GPU accelerated Curve & Font rendering

Rami Santina and I had the luxury and fun of implementing something hopefully useful for the desktop and mobile Java, UI and 3D community.
Without AWT dependencies and with utilizing the GPU, curve and font rendering now happens within Jogl.

Rami, the math dude behind the equations, will publish some boring papers about his findings,
which allows us to have and use this nice technique w/o patent worries.
Yes, it’s not Loop/Blinn.

Source is already pushed.

A few teaser 🙂
