Hi there,

I just wanted to share you 2 GL libraries I got working on pandora.
First that's GLUT. I'm guilty of nothing, because that's mcobit finding ;)
Source are here : http://unrealvoodoo.org/git/glutes.git/ and works as it is (no patch).

The other one is CEGUI. It's GUI library for GL (well GLES on pandora) Its API is nice and it run fast (all the demo got 60fps).
Source : http://sebt3.openpandora.org/buildtools/?f=CEGUI-0.7.5-pandora.tar.gz
Binary Demo : http://sebt3.openpandora.org/buildtools/?f=CEGUI_Demo.tar.gz
 
This looks very nice! Does CEGUI have a simple way to pop up a file-selector dialog? If so, I'd love to use it for the Pandora version of FlipClock, which for some reason hans whenever the gtk-file-selector is used (some sort of interaction problem between the Pandora SDL threads and gtk, very annoying..)
 
thanks for cegui ... so that means they have a GLES backend, which is good.

[sub]i'm currently looking for a decent gui framework, but damn, there's NOTHING out there that is both easy of use and not bloated. :( [/sub]

the GLES backend is from the SVN but only build with the 0.7.5 release. (and I had to create all the part needed for the build system as nothing was there).

Isn't CEGUI what you're looking for ? it's not bloated (by the perf the Demos get) and from what I have read so far, it seems easy to use.

sebt3: are you going to submit your Pandora-specific fixes back to the main repo? It'd be really nice if we could get Pandora support as a builtin from this point forward, especially if some of us commit to using CEGUI in our projects (like me, if I can get a cheap file-selector dialog out of it..)

As said, this source doesnt build with current CEGUI svn. Yet I do have the build system in place for svn too (0.7.5 use autotools, svn use cmake). But the base classes have newer virtual methods I'll need to implement.

Will do it, but not in a near futur (As the SVN API is still moving)
