Hello,
im realy new in OpenGL Development for Java (and Graphic Devel. self). I ask me, if it is possible to create a OpenGL Plane in a Swing Enviroment.

Or if there are Classes for "Buttons, Select Boxes..." in lwjgl.
Maybe a class to build a "HUD".

There are examples that use an AWTGLCanvas in the lwjgl sourceforge area.

I am also looking for an example on how to use AWTGLCanvas.

I have searched through the Source distribution, there is no example there, only the sparsely documented class itself.

My problem is: The overridden paintGL function is called, the gl Functions are executed, but nothing appears in the canvas. What do I have to do to make the AWTGLCanvas acutally draw something?

Did you call swapBuffers() at the end of the paintGL() method?

Yeah, that was one third of the problem. :-)

I found the example now. swapBuffers() and makeCurrent() were both missing.
