Hi,

Is there any way to get the amount of currently available video mem? I would use this for debugging to make sure that I correctly free all buffers and textures.

I expect it would be available through glGetInteger, but can't seem to find a constant that returns available vmem.

I'm currently working on a model viewer, and would like to be sure that I free up everything correctly when closing down one model in order to load in another one.

Any help appreciated,

You should be able to do it in straight Java by doing something like:
    GraphicsEnvironment env;
    GraphicsDevice device;

        env = GraphicsEnvironment.getLocalGraphicsEnvironment();
        device = env.getDefaultScreenDevice();
        System.out.println("Free video memory: " + (device.getAvailableAcceleratedMemory() / 1024)
                    + "Kb\n");

Hope that helps

Thanks, that was exactly what I needed
