Introduction</h2> <p>Welcome to version 2.7.7 of the GLFW library. GLFW is a free, Open Source, multi-platform library for OpenGL application development that provides a powerful API for handling operating system specific tasks such as opening an OpenGL window, reading keyboard, mouse, joystick and time input, creating threads, and more.</p> <p>GLFW 2.7 is expected to be the last major release of the 2.x series, with most development now being done on what will become version 3.0.</p> <p>This release adds fixes for a few minor bugs on each platform, support for more swap interval methods on X11 and Visual C++ 2012 project files.</p> <p>For a full list of changes, see the <a href="#changelog">version history</a>.</p> <a name="compiling"></a> <h2>2. Compiling GLFW and the example programs</h2> <p>A top level makefile can be found in the root directory of the GLFW distribution that has been designed to work with several compilers. If you simply enter the GLFW root directory in a shell and type <code>make</code> (or <code>nmake</code>, <code>mingw32-make</code>, <code>gnumake</code>, <code>gmake</code> or something else, depending on your development envronment), and a list should appear with the currently supported options for systems and compilers.</p> <p>For example, one of the options is to compile GLFW for Windows using MinGW and MSYS. To do this, use:</p> <blockquote><code>make win32-msys</code></blockquote> <p>This will compile the GLFW static library and DLL as well as the supplied example and test programs.</p> <p>Currently supported compilers and systems are:</p> <ul> <li>Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 and 2010</li> <li>MinGW with or without MSYS</li> <li>MinGW cross-compilation for Unix-like systems</li> <li>OpenWatcom for Windows</li> <li>Unix or Unix-like systems running the X Window System</li> <li>Apple GCC or Clang on Mac OS X</li> </ul> <p>There are also project files available for Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 and 2010 in the <code>support/msvc90</code> and <code>support/msvc100</code> directories.</p> <p>If your compiler/system is not in the list, you may have to create new makefiles in the <code>lib\win32</code>, <code>lib/x11</code> or <code>lib/cocoa</code> directory, and in the <code>examples</code> directory. If you have any problems, please use our <a href="http://sourceforge.net/projects/glfw/forums/forum/247562">support forum</a> and <a href="http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=72569&atid=534938">bug tracker</a> on SourceForge.net. We would like to support as many systems as possible, so if you had to make any modifications or additions to the source and/or makefiles in order to make GLFW compile successfully, we would very much like to know what you had to do.</p> <h3>2.1 Microsoft Windows</h3> <p>When building GLFW as a DLL (dynamic link library), all compilation units need to have the <code>GLFW_BUILD_DLL</code> macro defined. All build methods listed below already does this, but you need to do it yourself if you are making a custom build. Without this macro, the GLFW DLL will not export functions correctly and code calling the DLL will be incorrectly generated.</p> <h4>2.1.1 Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 and 2010</h4> <p>Project files for both the static and dynamic versions of the GLFW library are provided in the <code>support/msvc90</code> and <code>support/msvc100</code> directories.</p> <h4>2.1.2 MinGW on Windows</h4> <p>GLFW can be compiled using only <a href="http://www.mingw.org/">MinGW</a>. Open a Windows command prompt, enter the root directory of the GLFW source distribution and use the <code>win32-mingw</code> target:</p> <blockquote><code>mingw32-make win32-mingw</code></blockquote> <h4>2.1.3 MSYS and MinGW on Windows</h4> <p>If you have both <a href="http://www.mingw.org/">MinGW and MSYS</a> installed, a better alternative is to use the built-in MSYS support. Open an MSYS shell, enter the root directory of the GLFW source distribution and use the <code>win32-msys</code> target:</p> <blockquote><code>mingw32-make win32-msys</code></blockquote> <h4>2.1.4 Cygwin's MinGW on Windows</h4> <p>GLFW can be cross-compiled to native Win32 code using the MinGW packages in <a href="http://www.cygwin.com/">Cygwin</a> (the newer <code>mingw-</code> packages, not the older <code>gcc-mingw-</code> ones). Open a Cygwin shell, enter the root directory of the GLFW source distribution and use the <code>cross-mgw</code> target:</p> <blockquote><code>env TARGET=i686-pc-mingw32- make cross-mgw</code></blockquote> <p>This results in binaries that are functionally identical to those produced by the other MinGW variants, i.e. they will use <code>msvcrt.dll</code> as libc and will have no dependency on Cygwin.</p> <h4>2.1.5 MinGW cross-compilation for Unix or Unix-like systems</h4> <p>Some Unix-like systems have a MinGW cross-compilation package for compiling native Win32 binaries, for example the <code>mingw32</code> package on Debian GNU/Linux and its derivatives. You can use this to build Win32 binaries of GLFW and all examples without having to run Microsoft Windows or even Wine. Use the regular make program with the <code>cross-mgw</code> target. You may also need to adjust the <code>TARGET</code> environment variable, depending on how packagers named the binaries.</p> <h4>2.1.6 OpenWatcom on Windows</h4> <p>GLFW can be compiled using <a href="http://www.openwatcom.org/">OpenWatcom</a> for Windows by running the following in the GLFW root directory:</p> <blockquote><code>nmake MAKE=nmake win32-ow</code></blockquote> <p>Also make sure that you have all your environment variables set up correctly. It is the default option when installing OpenWatcom to permanently set up all the required environment variables. If <code>nmake</code> is unavailable, you probably have to run <code>WATCOM\setvars.bat</code> from the command prompt first, where <code>WATCOM</code> is the directory in which you installed OpenWatcom (e.g. <code>C:\Watcom</code>).</p> <h3>2.2 X11 on Unix-like systems</h3> <p>Compiler and link library capabilities are auto-detected with a script called <code>compile.sh</code>. Note that you don't need to run this script yourself, as it is run automatically by the top-level makefile when necessary. It has been tested on FreeBSD and many Linux distributions and should hopefully run correctly on the majority of available Unix-like systems.</p> <p>If you wish to customize the compilation or link flags for GLFW, set the <code>CFLAGS</code> or <code>LFLAGS</code> environment variables as needed before building the library. These flags will be picked up and added to the generated <code>Makefile.x11</code> files.</p> <p>If you wish to use a certain compiler, set the <code>CC</code> environment variable before building the library. This will also be stored in the generated <code>Makefile.x11</code> files.</p> <p>If you have already configured your source tree, you can reset it to an un-configured state by running make with the <code>x11-dist-clean</code> target.</p> <p>If you are making your own build setup for GLFW, you need to be aware of the various preprocessor symbols that the bundled makefiles use to enable various features and code paths. They need to be defined either on the command-line or at the very beginning for each GLFW source file with an <code>x11_</code> prefix.</p> <p>Note that the X11 port of GLFW compiles on Mac OS X, but is currently unable to open a window when running against X11.app, due to Apple's incomplete implementation of GLXFBConfigs.</p> <table border=1> <tr> <td>_GLFW_USE_LINUX_JOYSTICKS</td> <td>Use the Linux joystick API. This is the only supported API for the X11 port. Without it, joystick input will be unavailable.</td> </tr> <tr> <td>_GLFW_HAS_XRANDR</td> <td>Use the X Resize and Rotate extension for display mode changes.

A version of these tools can be found on your Mac OS X disc, with newer versions available from the Apple Developer Connection site. When they are installed, simply open Terminal and go to the root GLFW directory. From there, you can build the library and all the examples by running make with the appropriate target, i.e.:</p> <blockquote><code>make cocoa</code></blockquote> <p>The default compiler for the Cocoa port of GLFW is <code>cc</code>, which as of Mac OS X 10.6 still defaults to GCC, but you can override this using the <code>CC</code> environment variable. For example, to build GLFW using Clang, use:</p> <blockquote><code>env CC=clang make cocoa</code></blockquote> <p>There is also a deprecated Carbon port of GLFW, which is limited to 32-bit code and only runs well on Mac OS X 10.3 and 10.4. However, if you need to build applications for those systems, it is a better choice than the Cocoa port, which uses APIs unavailable on systems older than 10.5.</p> <a name="installing"></a> <h2>3. Installing GLFW</h2> <h3>3.1 Windows</h3> <p>After compiling GLFW with MinGW or Cygwin, three files of interest should have appeared in the <code>lib\win32</code> directory. They are: <code>libglfw.a</code> (the static link version of GLFW), <code>glfw.dll</code> (the DLL version of GLFW) and <code>libglfwdll.a</code> (the DLL import library).</p> <p>To install GLFW on Cygwin (and possibly MinGW), run make with the <code>cygwin-install</code> target. This will generate the pkg-config file and copy it, the header file and the library to the correct locations of your Cygwin installation. If you wish to change the installation location from its default, set the desired prefix path with the environment variable <code>PREFIX</code>.</p> <p>If you used Borland C++ Builder, LCC-Win32, Microsoft Visual C++ or OpenWatcom, the files are named <code>glfw.lib</code> (the static link version of GLFW), <code>glfw.dll</code> (the DLL version of GLFW) and <code>glfwdll.lib</code> (the DLL import library).</p> <p>The static link library and the DLL import library should be copied to your compiler's <code>LIB</code> directory (where all other link libraries are located). The DLL can be copied either to your Windows system directory (where opengl32.dll is located), or to the project directory of your GLFW-based projects (where you place your executable files).</p> <p>You should also copy the GLFW include file, <code>include\GL\glfw.h</code>, to the <code>GL</code> directory of your compiler's include directory (i.e. where <code>gl.h</code>, <code>glu.h</code> etc. are located).</p> <h3>3.2 Unix</h3> <p>After compiling GLFW, three files named <code>libglfw.pc.in</code>, <code>libglfw.a</code> and <code>libglfw.so</code> should have appeared in the <code>lib/x11</code> directory. This is the pkg-config template file, the GLFW static link library and the GLFW shared library, respectively.</p> <p>To install GLFW onto your system, run make as root with the <code>x11-install</code> make target. This will install the pkg-config file, the static library and the header. By default, the files will be installed under <code>/usr/local</code>. If you wish to install to a different location, set the <code>PREFIX</code> environment variable appropriately when running make.</p> <p>Note that the shared library is not installed by default, as you really should think twice before using it. GLFW is very small and shared library distribution on Unix outside of packaging systems is quite tricky. The GLFW license also allows static linking without requiring you to share your code.</p> <p>However, if you're a *nix distribution packager, use a language binding or for some other reason wish to install the shared library along with the rest, run make with the <code>x11-dist-install</code> target.</p> <h3>3.4 Mac OS X</h3> <p>After compiling GLFW, three files named <code>libglfw.pc.in</code>, <code>libglfw.a</code> and <code>libglfw.dylib</code> should appear in the <code>lib/cocoa</code> directory. This is the pkg-config template file, the GLFW static link library and the GLFW dynamic library, respectively.</p> <p>To install GLFW onto your system, run make with sudo and the <code>cocoa-install</code> build target, i.e.:</p> <blockquote><code>sudo make cocoa-install</code></blockquote> <p>This will install the pkg-config file, the static library and the header. By default, the files will be installed under <code>/usr/local</code>. If you wish to install to a different location, set the environment variable <code>PREFIX</code> appropriately when running make.</p> <p>Note that the shared library is not installed by default, as you really should think twice before using it. GLFW is very small and very suitable for static linking. The GLFW license also allows static linking without requiring your to share your code.</p> <a name="using"></a> <h2>4. Using GLFW</h2> <p>There are two aspects to using GLFW:</p> <ol> <li>How does the GLFW API work</li> <li>How to compile programs that use GLFW</li> </ol> <p>The first point is covered in the <a href="docs/UsersGuide.pdf">GLFW Users Guide</a> and the <a href="docs/Reference.pdf">GLFW Reference Manual</a>, and we suggest that you read at least the Users Guide, since it's a good introduction to the GLFW API.</p> <p>Designing and compiling programs that use GLFW is not very difficult. A few rules for successfully designing GLFW-based programs are presented in the following sections.</p> <h3>4.1 Include the GLFW header file</h3> <p>In the files of your program where you use OpenGL or GLFW, you should include the <code>GL/glfw.h</code> header file, i.e.:</p> <blockquote><code>#include <GL/glfw.h></code></blockquote> <p>This defines all the constants, types and function prototypes of the GLFW API. It also includes the OpenGL and GLU header files, and defines all the necessary constants and types that are necessary for these headers to work on that particular platform.</p> <p>For example, under Microsoft Windows you are normally required to include <code>windows.h</code> before you include <code>GL/gl.h</code>. This would however make your code dependent on the Windows platform, or at least require your program to check which platform it is being compiled on.</p> <p>The GLFW header file takes care of this for you, not by including <code>windows.h</code>, but rather by itself duplicating the necessary parts of it. This way, the namespace won't be cluttered by the entire Windows API.</p> <p>By default, the regular <code>gl.h</code> OpenGL header is included. If you wish to include the draft <code>gl3.h</code> header instead, define <code>GLFW_INCLUDE_GL3</code> before the inclusion of the GLFW header.</p> <p>By default, the <code>glu.h</code> GLU header is included. If you wish to avoid this, define <code>GLFW_NO_GLU</code> before the inclusion of the GLFW header.</p> <p>In other words: <ul> <li>Do <em>not</em> include <code>gl.h</code> or <code>glu.h</code> yourself, as GLFW does this for you</li> <li>Do <em>not</em> include <code>windows.h</code> unless you need direct access to the Windows API</li> <li>If you <em>do</em> include <code>windows.h</code>, do it <em>before</em> including <code>GL/glfw.h</code>. The GLFW header will detect this and act appropriately.</li> </ul> <p>Also note that if you are using an OpenGL extension loading library such as <a href="http://glew.sourceforge.net/">GLEW</a>, you should include the GLEW header <em>before</em> the GLFW one. The GLEW header defines macros that disable any <code>gl.h</code> that the GLFW header includes and GLEW will work as expected.</p> <h3>4.2 Link with the right libraries</h3> <h4>4.2.1 Windows static library</h4> <p>If you link with the static version of GLFW, it is also necessary to link with some system libraries that GLFW uses.</p> <p>When linking a program under Windows that uses the static version of GLFW, you must also link with the following libraries: <code>opengl32</code>, <code>user32</code> and <code>kernel32</code>. Some of these libraries may be linked with by default by your compiler. In the table below you can see the minimum required link options for each supported Windows compiler (you may want to add other libraries as well, such as <code>glu32</code>):</p> <table border=1> <tr> <td><b>Compiler</b></td> <td><b>Link options</b></td> </tr> <tr> <td>Borland C++ Builder</td> <td><code>glfw.lib opengl32.lib</code></td> </tr> <tr> <td>Cygwin</td> <td><i>See Unix static library below</i></td> </tr> <tr> <td>LCC-Win32</td> <td><code>glfw.lib opengl32.lib</code></td> </tr> <tr> <td>Microsoft Visual C++</td> <td><code>glfw.lib opengl32.lib</code></td> </tr> <tr> <td>MinGW and MinGW-w64</td> <td><code>-lglfw -lopengl32</code></td> </tr> <tr> <td>OpenWatcom</td> <td><code>glfw.lib opengl32.lib user32.lib</code></td> </tr> </table> <h4>4.2.2 Windows DLL</h4> <p>To compile a program that uses the DLL version of GLFW, you need to define the <code>GLFW_DLL</code> constant. This can either be done with a compiler switch, typically by adding <code>-DGLFW_DLL</code> to the list of compiler options. You can also do it by adding the following line to all your source files <b>before</b> including the GLFW header file:</p> <blockquote><code>#define GLFW_DLL</code></blockquote> <p>When linking a program under Windows that uses the DLL version of GLFW, the only library you need to link with for GLFW to work is <code>glfwdll</code>. In the table below you can see the minimum required link options for each supported Windows compiler (you may want to add other libraries as well, such as <code>opengl32</code> and <code>glu32</code>):</p> <table border=1> <tr> <td><b>Compiler</b></td> <td><b>Link options</b></td> </tr> <tr> <td>Borland C++ Builder</td> <td><code>glfwdll.lib</code></td> </tr> <tr> <td>Cygwin</td> <td><code>-lglfwdll</code></td> </tr> <tr> <td>LCC-Win32</td> <td><code>glfwdll.lib</code></td> </tr> <tr> <td>Microsoft Visual C++</td> <td><code>glfwdll.lib</code></td> </tr> <tr> <td>MinGW and MinGW-w64</td> <td><code>-lglfwdll</code></td> </tr> <tr> <td>OpenWatcom</td> <td><code>glfwdll.lib</code></td> </tr> </table> <h4>4.2.3 Unix static library</h4> <p>GLFW supports <a href="http://pkgconfig.freedesktop.org/wiki/">pkg-config</a>, and a <code>libglfw.pc</code> file is generated and installed when you install the library. For systems that do not provide pkg-config, you should look in this file for the proper compile and link flags for your system, as determined by compile.sh at compile time.</p> <p>A typical compile and link command-line when using the GLFW static library may look like this:</p> <blockquote><code>cc `pkg-config --cflags libglfw` -o myprog myprog.c `pkg-config --static --libs libglfw`</code></blockquote> <p>When using the GLFW sharedd library it may look like this:</p> <blockquote><code>cc `pkg-config --cflags libglfw` -o myprog myprog.c `pkg-config --libs libglfw`</code></blockquote> <p>If you use GLU functions in your program you should also add <code>-lGLU</code> to your link flags.</p> <h4>4.2.5 Mac OS X static library</h4> <p>When compiling and linking a program under Mac OS X that uses GLFW, you must also link with Cocoa and OpenGL frameworks. <p>If you are using Xcode, you simply add the GLFW library <code>libglfw.a</code> and these frameworks to your project. If, however, you are building your program from the command-line, there are two methods for correctly linking your GLFW program.</p> <p>GLFW supports <a href="http://pkgconfig.freedesktop.org/wiki/">pkg-config</a>, and a libglfw.pc file is generated and installed when you install the library. You can find pkg-config in most packaging systems, such as <a href="http://www.finkproject.org/">Fink</a> and <a href="http://www.macports.org/">MacPorts</a>, so if you have one of them installed, simply install pkg-config. Once you have pkg-config available, the command-line for compiling and linking your program is:</p> <blockquote><code>cc `pkg-config --cflags libglfw` -o myprog myprog.c `pkg-config --libs libglfw`</code></blockquote> <p>If you do not wish to use pkg-config, you will need to add the required frameworks and libraries to your command-line using the <code>-l</code> and <code>-framework</code> switches, i.e.:</p> <blockquote><code>cc -o myprog myprog.c -lglfw -framework Cocoa -framework OpenGL -framework IOKit</code></blockquote> <p>Note that you do not add the .framework extension to a framework when adding it from the command-line.</p> <p>These frameworks contain all OpenGL and GLU functions, so there is no need to add additional libraries or frameworks when using GLU functionality. Also note that even though your machine may have Unix-style OpenGL libraries, they are for use with the X Window System, and will <em>not</em> work with the Mac OS X native version of GLFW.</p> <a name="changelog"></a> <h2>5.

license to the zlib license (almost identical to the previous GLFW license), so now GLFW is OSI Certified</li> <li>Rewrote the GLFW documentation in LaTeX, meaning several improvements (both visual and practical)</li> <li>Added the <code>support</code> folder to the distribution, which includes support for various languages</li> <li>[Win32] Added OpenWatcom compiler support (thanks Sebastian Schuberth!)</li> <li>[Win32] Changed fallback timer from GetTickCount to timeGetTime, which usually provides better resolution</li> <li>[Win32] Bugfix: Accumulator buffer selection should be more

System now works under Mac OS X</li> <li>[Win32] Bugfix: glfwWaitCond treated the timeout as milliseconds instead of seconds</li> <li>[X11] Bugfix: GLFW should now compile under IRIX v5.3</li> <li>[X11] Bugfix: GLFW should now compile with Kylix</li> </ul> <h3>v2.4</h3> <ul> <li>Major source code rearrangement - much code is now shared between different platforms, and it should be easier to port GLFW to new platforms</li> <li>Added a Unicode keyboard text input interface (CharCallback)</li> <li>Keyboard key input is now slightly more internationalized: GLFW now uses 8-bit ISO-8859-1 encoding for keys representing printable characters (e.g. "Ö", "§", etc), as opposed to the previous 7-bit US-ASCII encoding</li> <li>Added more key constants (F13-F25, keypad '=')</li> <li>Added an enable/disable swicth for automatic event polling from glfwSwapBuffers</li> <li>[X11] Added support for sysctl for querying the number of processors in the system (if POSIX sysconf is not

Bugfix: When closing a fullscreen window under Win 9x/NT4, the task bar icon now disappears properly</li> <li>[Win32] Bugfix: GLFW should now compile on a wider range of MSVC compilers (e.g. .NET) - Thanks Tim Little!</li> </ul> <h3>v2.3.2</h3> <ul> <li>Removed the silly limitation of 100 threads (the thread information is now kept in a linked list)</li> <li>General source cleanup (window state is now kept in a single struct, plus some other minor changes)</li> <li>[X11] Added Solaris gethrtime() support (not tested yet), which should give an improved timer for Sun/Solaris stations</li> <li>[X11] Some fixes to the 'compile.sh' script (-O for non-gcc compilers and 'make x11-gcc' should now really force GCC)</li> </ul> <h3>v2.3.1</h3> <ul> <li>[X11] A minimalist configuration script was added that solves the issue with glXGetProcAddressARB, and unifies all Unix/X11 Makefiles into one template Makefile (well, one for GLFW, and one for the examples)</li> </ul> <h3>v2.3</h3> <ul> <li>Added OpenGL stereo rendering support</li> <li>Added a function for parsing the OpenGL version string (glfwGetGLVersion)</li> <li>[x86] Bugfix: Hopefully the CPU core clock dependent timer RDTSC will never be used on CPUs with variable core frequencies anymore</li> <li>[X11] Bugfix: GLFW could create stereo rendering capable windows, even if it was not requested (GLFW v2.2.x did not support selection of stereo rendering)</li> <li>[X11] Bugfix: glfwGetProcAddress returned NULL on most systems (even on those that supported glXGetProcAddressARB). Now GLFW assumes that glXGetProcAddressARB is supported on all systems, which solves the bug, but may result in compiler errors on some systems (please let me know if you have any related problems).</li> </ul> <h3>v2.2.3</h3> <ul> <li>Bugfix: Checking for GL_SGIS_generate_mipmap is more robust</li> <li>Bugfix: glfwLoadTexture2D will now fail if no window is opened</li> <li>[Win32] Bugfix: Right shift was not detected under Win 9x/ME (it is still not as good as under NT/2K/XP, but at least you get right shifts)</li> <li>[X11] Bugfix: Visuals are now selected more accurately. For instance, glfwOpenWindow will no longer fail if you request a 24-bit color buffer if only 16-bit color visuals are available (which means that pong3d should work on 16-bit displays).</li> </ul> <h3>v2.2.2</h3> <ul> <li>[Win32] Bugfix: Windows did not always get focus (this was a tough one!)</li> <li>[Win32] Bugfix: glfwGetWindowParam did not work with GLFW_ACCUM_*_BITS or GLFW_AUX_BUFFERS</li> <li>[X11] Bugfix: Linux joystick Y axis positions were reversed</li> </ul> <h3>v2.2.1</h3> <ul> <li>[X11] Added joystick support for Linux</li> </ul> <h3>v2.2</h3> <ul> <li>Added joystick support (only supported under Windows so far)</li> <li>Added joystick controls to pong3d.c (only 3 more lines of code)</li> <li>Added glfwOpenWindowHint() function</li> <li>It is now possible to specify a desired vertical monitor refresh rate (for fullscreen windows)</li> <li>It is now possible to request an accumulator buffer and auxiliary buffers</li> <li>Added glfwSetTime() function</li> <li>Added a GLFW conversion of the MESA/GLUT gears.c demo to the example programs</li> <li>[Win32] gdi32.dll and winmm.dll are now loaded dynamically when glfwInit() is called. This means that there is no need to link with gdi32.lib or winmm.lib when using the static version of GLFW, which should make GLFW usage more convenient.</li> <li>[Win32] Bugfix: Greatly improved keyboard input (detect left/right CTRL etc)</li> <li>[Win32] Bugfix: glfwExtensionSupported now detects all WGL extensions (e.g. WGL_ARB_pbuffer)</li> <li>[Win32] Bugfix: Mouse cursor was not re-hidden when a GLFW window was deselected and then selected again (with ALT+TAB)</li> <li>[X11] Bugfix: Minor bug in the SGI timer - and ugly (unintended) SGI timer debug info removed</li> <li>[X11] Bugfix: glfwGetDesktopMode and glfwGetVideoModes no longer give segmentation faults if no X server is available</li> </ul> <h3>v2.1</h3> <ul> <li>Added image and texture loading capabilities (support for the TGA file format at the moment)</li> <li>Added a new example program (mipmaps.c) for showing off the automatic mipmap generation and texture loading capabilities of GLFW 2.1</li> <li>Removed the separate TGA loader (tga.c in the examples directory) since texture loading is supported natively by GLFW. Also updated the Pong3D demo to use GLFW texture loading instead of tga.c.</li> <li>Improved keyboard handling (e.g. numeric keypad keys can be detected)</li> <li>Added a new example program, keytest.c</li> <li>Changed the GLFWvidmode structure and the corresponding API functions to report pure color bits instead of the confusing (and unportable) "BPP" field</li> <li>Changed glfwSetWindowSize so that it operates in fullscreen mode too</li> <li>Added mouse wheel support under Windows (not Win95) and X11</li> <li>Added window iconification functions (glfwInconifyWindow and glfwRestoreWindow)</li> <li>Improved iconification and deactivation handling under both Windows and X11</li> <li>Made it possible to turn on/off key repeat (the default is now no key repeat)</li> <li>Added SGI hardware timer support (CLOCK_SGI_CYCLE) for improved timer resolution for SGI computers</li> <li>Added support for the free Borland C++ Builder 5.x compiler for Windows</li> <li>Made it possible to compiler GLFW as a Windows DLL using any of the supported compilers</li> <li>Some constants have changed names (e.g. GLFW_REDBITS is now called GLFW_RED_BITS)</li> <li>Updated GLFW documentation (GLFW Users Guide and GLFW Reference Manual) to reflect the changes in the API</li> <li>[Win32] Bugfix: Corrected Cygwin toplevel makefile entry</li> <li>[Win32] Bugfix: Fixed event lag bug</li> <li>[Win32] Bugfix: Fixed Radeon 8500 crash</li> <li>[X11] Bugfix: Fixed the window close bug</li> <li>[X11] Bugfix: Iconification/deactivation is now detected</li> <li>[X11] Bugfix: Non-OpenGL visuals are not listed anymore</li> <li>[XFree86] Bugfix: Undesired video mode changes are now prevented</li> </ul> <h3>v2.0.3</h3> <ul> <li>Added precise CPU cycle based timing support (RDTSC) for x86 CPUs (under both Windows and Unix)</li> <li>Added a makefile option for building for Windows with Cygwin</li> <li>Corrected the CC for Unix/X11 makefiles (-Wall is usually not a supported flag for CC, so it was removed from the CFLAGS list)</li> </ul> <h3>v2.0.2</h3> <ul> <li>Added a makefile option for building for X11 with 'cc' rather than 'gcc' (useful for IRIX users for instance).</li> <li>[Win32] Bugfix: Mouse coordinates are now relative to the window upper left corner, which also means that disabling the mouse cursor in windowed mode should work much better.</li> <li>[X11] Bugfix: Added a bunch of more keys that are recognized by GLFW.</li> <li>[X11] Bugfix: glfwGetNumberOfProcessors now works for IRIX (earlier versions of GLFW would not compile under IRIX).</li> </ul> <h3>v2.0.1</h3> <ul> <li>glfwTerminate() will now be called automatically upon normal program termination (using atexit())</li> <li>[Win32] Bugfix: Buffer-swapping did not work if a window lost focus.</li> <li>[Win32] Bugfix: Top level Makefile did not work under Windows 9x.</li> <li>[Win32] Bugfix: NULL declaratoin in glfw.h was not MSVC 7.x compatible.</li> <li>[X11] Bugfix: GLFW would not build with C++ (e.g. g++).</li> </ul> <h3>v2.0</h3> <ul> <li>GLFW is no longer a single source file, but an entire link library.</li> <li>Added multi threading support.</li> <li>Added more window control.</li> <li>New distribution layout (both Win32 and X11 version in same archive).</li> <li>Added GLFW Users Manual and GLFW Reference Manual as PDF files.</li> <li>Some bugfixes.</li> </ul> <h3>v1.0.2</h3> <ul> <li>Improved fullscreen functionality.</li> <li>Added fullscreen support for X11.</li> </ul> <h3>v1.0.1</h3> <ul> <li>Added support for the X Window System.</li> <li>Fixed bugs.</li> </ul> <h3>v1.0.0</h3> <ul> <li>First release.</li> <li>Only supported Windows.</li> </ul> <a name="structure"></a> <h2>6.
