🦋 OpenGL(3) 🦋

okay so bestie, this is the OpenGL(3) page from User Contributed Perl Documentation — yes, the manual name is OpenGL(3), and it's all about the Perl OpenGL module. We're doing this in six parts; this is part one, and it's lowkey a lot, but we're gonna slay it together. 💅

✨ NAME ✨

OpenGL - v0.70 — that's the module and the version, periodt. 🎀

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

Here's how you load this thing, and the vibes change depending on what you import:

use OpenGL qw(:all); # exports all new functionality, without
                     # the OpenGL-0.4 compatibility functions

use OpenGL qw(:glfunctions :glconstants); # exports functions and
                     # constants for using OpenGL, without exporting
                     # GLU, GLUT, or GLX stuff.

use OpenGL qw(:old); # Exports much old functionality of OpenGL 0.4

use OpenGL; # DEPRECATED!  Same as above.  DEPRECATED!

🚨 warning bestie: use OpenGL; is literally marked DEPRECATED! — same as above, and DEPRECATED! — so don't act surprised later, okay?

Also see: POGL Objects — the little side squad:

OpenGL::Array — optimized data arrays via C pointers
OpenGL::Image — direct C pointer acces to ImageMagick image cache
OpenGL::Shader — abstracted shader interface: ARB, GLSL and Cg

🌈 PREREQUISITES 🌈

okay so this module is assuming you already have OpenGL, GLU, and some flavor of GLUT properly installed on your system. Not "kinda installed," not "vibes only" — properly installed, bestie. 😭

These will be names like libGL.so, libGLU.so and libglut.so for unixen, and opengl32.dll and glu32.dll for MS Windows.

If you're using it with OpenGL::Image, use v1.03 or higher. No cap. 💖

🧚 DESCRIPTION 🧚

🫶 Naming convention: 🫶

Virtually all of the OpenGL 1.0, and 1.1 functions are available, and most of 1.2. In general, the calling sequence is identical in Perl as in C — the way that makes porting feel less like a boss fight. ✨

Most functions that have no pointer arguments are called identically in Perl as in C, and the same name is used.

Functions that use Perl array arguments and have been changed in "the obvious way" — to take a variable number of arguments and/or to return an array — have the same names as their C counterparts, but with a _p suffix.

All functions that take pointers are available with their original calling syntax and a _c suffix. These are most useful when combined with the OpenGL::Array module, which lets you allocate C arrays from Perl — iconic behavior, honestly.

A third variant, _s, exists for most pointer functions, and takes a string argument for each pointer or a reference to a Perl string containing packed data. The underlying OpenGL function will be passed a pointer to that data. 🫶

and that's where this chunk runs out 😭 — the list is still going, obviously, so don't go anywhere 💜

oh also, before I forget: those _c, _p and _s suffixes are literally part of the names, so copy them exactly, they are not typos, do not "clean them up", iykyk 💅

okay so we're STILL going through the roster and honestly? this is the longest guest list ever 💀 but you asked for the whole thing so here's the whole thing, alphabetically, no skips, no cap. type these exactly, _c, _p, _s and all, because they are literally part of the name 🎀

         glVertexPointerEXT_c
         glVertexPointerEXT_p
         glVertexPointerEXT_s
         glVertexPointer_c

         glWindowPos3iMESA
         glWindowPos4dMESA
         glWindowPos4iMESA

And that's the end of that list, periodt. 💅

Then there's a whole lil squad of glp helpers doing their own thing:

         glpCheckExtension
         glpFullScreen
         glpHasGLUT
         glpRestoreScreen

Not a single _c/_p/_s suffix in sight — they're built different, lowkey main character energy. 🫶

🌈 GLX functions 🌈

Okay so here's the tea on GLX, and I need you to hear me out 🎀: GLX is only supported to the degree that Stan's original module supported it. Like, that's the ceiling, that's the vibe check, that's the whole story.

Without an entire X binding it is of limited use, and — real talk — the recommendation is to use GLUT/FreeGLUT instead. Fr fr. Save yourself. 💀

Here's what's in the GLX corner:

         XPending              (X11 only)
         glXSwapBuffers        (X11 only)
         glpXNextEvent         (X11 only)
         glpXQueryPointer      (X11 only)

         glpcOpenWindow        (Not exported, must use fully qualified package name)

Heads up bestie: those first four are flagged (X11 only) — no X11, no entry. And glpcOpenWindow is not exported, so you gotta use the fully qualified package name to get to it. No shortcuts, iykyk. 🙈

🧸 Old functions 🧸

okay so bestie, this next bit is the throwback shelf 💅 — literally every name below is listed in the page under Old functions. We're not skipping a single one, because they're all still here and they all still matter for anyone reading old code (iykyk). Buckle up, this list is long and it's giving "my older cousin's codebase from 2004" energy 🎀

The first chunk is the X11-flavoured crew — masks, events, notify modes, grabs, all of it — exactly as the page has them:

AlreadyGrabbed, AnyModifier, AsyncBoth, AsyncKeyboard, AsyncPointer, Button1
Button1Mask, Button1MotionMask, Button2, Button2Mask, Button2MotionMask, Button3

and then the GL side of the old-functions fam — the gl* crowd, then the little glu trio at the end. no cap, this is a lot of them, but every single one gets its moment 🌸

💡 heads up bestie: glXSwapBuffers is marked (X11 only) in the original, so don't come for me when it's not there on your fancy non-X11 setup 🙈

🐪 "Perl" GL access shortcuts 🐪

okay and then there's this whole other little pocket of the page — the glp* shortcuts, literally tagged as the "Perl" GL access shortcuts section. Some of these are flagged (X11 only), and a few are flagged as coming (from PDL) — and yes, glpRasterFont is both, because it's an overachiever like that ✨

glpClipPlane
glpDisplay (X11 only)
glpFlush
glpFullScreen
glpGetClipPlane
glpLoadMatrixd
glpLoadMatrixf
glpMainLoop
glpMoveResizeWindow (X11 only)
glpMoveWindow (X11 only)
glpMultMatrixd
glpMultMatrixf
glpOpenWindow (X11 only)
glpPrintString (from PDL)
glpRasterFont (from PDL, X11 only)
glpReadTex
glpResizeWindow (X11 only)
glpRestoreScreen
glpSetDebug (from PDL)
glpSolidSphere
glpXNextEvent (X11 only)
glpXQueryPointer (X11 only)

🫶 tiny note because I love you: those parentheses are part of the deal — (X11 only) and (from PDL) are exactly how the page marks them, so copy them along if you're quoting this at someone 💖

and that's where this chunk wraps — but hold up, we're not done, there's more page to go, so keep scrolling bestie 🌈

okay so glpOpenWindow() is literally the preferred interface to glpcOpenWindow() 💅✨. Both of these functions have a special little (mis)feature for when you don’t need double buffering: if no GLX_DOUBLEBUFFER is specified, and creation of a "visual" fails, the creation is retried with GLX_DOUBLEBUFFER specified — to make it easier to support implementation which do not have SINGLEBUFFER visuals, which is typical on Suns. No cap, that’s the whole tea 🫖.

Since "finishing drawing" with and without GLX_DOUBLEBUFFER should be done in different ways, there’s a convenience function called glpFlush() 🎀. It operates the same as glFlush() if no enable-GLX_DOUBLEBUFFER hack was needed; otherwise it acts as glFlush() followed by glXSwapBuffers().

bestie, use glpFlush() only in the case no GLX_DOUBLEBUFFER attribute was given to glpOpenWindow() — that’s the rule, okay? 💖

Additionally, in absence of GLUT, glpSolidSphere() is aliased to glutSolidSphere(), to make writing simple portable backward-compatible scripts easier ✨.

🕰️ Historical Compatibility 🕰️

The original OpenGL-0.4 library, written by Stan Melax, was released to CPAN on 16-Feb-1996 🎀.

The OpenGL-0.5 library, by Kenneth Albanowski, was released to CPAN on 24-Apr-1999.
Ilya Zakharevich released OpenGL-0.53 on 05-Nov-2000 and OpenGL-0.54 on 26-May-2002.
Bob Free has been responsible for the OpenGL module development starting with OpenGL-0.55 on 26-Apr-2007.
Chris Marshall has been responsible for the OpenGL module development starting with OpenGL-0.58 on 06-Sep-2009.

Compatibility with these earlier libraries is in a state of flux — there’s on-going work to refactor the Perl OpenGL module to improve support for other GUI toolkits with Perl bindings and to update the version of OpenGL API supported. It’s giving “glow-up in progress” ✨.

✨ EXPORTS ✨

The following tags can be used to selectively import symbols into the main namespace — pick your faves, bestie 💅:

:all — exports all symbols (constants and functions).
:functions — exports all functions.
:constants — exports all constants.
:glfunctions — exports all gl* functions.
:glconstants — exports all symbols needed for the gl* functions.
:glufunctions — exports all glu* functions.
:gluconstants — exports all symbols needed for the glu* functions.
:glutfunctions — exports all glut* functions.
:glutconstants — exports all symbols needed for the glut* functions.
:glxfunctions — exports all glx* functions. No longer exports glpcOpenWindow().
:glxconstants — exports all symbols needed for the glx* functions.
:old — exports all old functions and constants.
:oldfunctions — exports all old functions.
:oldconstants — exports all symbols needed for the old functions.
