MesaDrawingArea - An Xt widget for Mesa/X with richer
semantics
DESCRIPTION
The MesaDrawingArea widget is an extension of the
GLwDrawingArea widget which takes advantage of some
features of the Mesa/X implementation of the OpenGL API.
It also simplifies programming by associating a drawing
context transparently to the widget. This feature is
particulary convenient in applications that have to deal
with multiple instances of a MesaDrawingArea widget.
Resources
The following X resources are available in addition to the
GLwDrawingArea resources:
___________________________________________________________________________
| | | | |
| Name | Class | Type | OpenGL attribute |
|____________________|____________________|_________|______________________|
| | | | |
| GLwNximage | GLwCXImage | Boolean | N/A |
|____________________|____________________|_________|______________________|

| GLwNshareLists | GLwCShareLists | Boolean | N/A |

| GLwNshareListsWith | GLwCShareListsWith | Widget | N/A |
|____________________|____________________|_________|______________________|
Boolean ximage
Is False by default, setting it to True will cause
Mesa/X to use an Ximage (in contrast to a pixmap) as
second buffer.
Boolean shareLists
Is False by default, setting it to True will cause
Mesa/X to share display lists among all widgets that
have this ressource set to True.
Boolean shareListsWith
[Caveat: This resource is not honored yet.]
Is NULL by default, setting it to another
MesaDrawingArea widget will cause the two widgets to
share display lists.
Utility functions
The following utility functions are available
switches the Mesa/X context to the one associated to
the widget w.
