Interface GLRunnable

public interface GLRunnable

Declares one-shot OpenGL commands usable for injection into a GLAutoDrawable,
via GLAutoDrawable.invoke(boolean, javax.media.opengl.GLRunnable).
GLAutoDrawable executes these commands within it's GLAutoDrawable.display() method while the OpenGL context is current.

This might be useful to inject OpenGL commands from an I/O event listener.

Method Detail

run

boolean run(GLAutoDrawable drawable)

Initiate one-shot OpenGL commands with a valid current context, processed by GLAutoDrawable.display(), enqueued by GLAutoDrawable.invoke(boolean, GLRunnable).

Parameters:

drawable - the associated drawable and current context for this call

Returns:

true if the GL [back] framebuffer remain intact by this runnable, otherwise false. If returning false and hence the impl signals an invalidated back buffer, another GLEventListener.display(GLAutoDrawable) call will be issued.
