JOGL Frame using AWT

AWT (Abstract Window Toolkit) is an application programming interface used to develop window-based applications. The components provided by AWT are heavy weight and platform dependent. The java.awt package contains various AWT classes for API's.

Now, we will create a simple frame using the classes of JOGL with AWT by using the below steps: -

Follow, the basic structure of JOGL discussed in the previous page.
Create a frame using Frame class of AWT. To use this class, it is required to import java.awt package.

Now, add the object of GLCanvas class with the Frame class object using add() method.

Provide the required dimensions within the setSize() method and make the frame visibility true.

frame.setSize( 500, 400 );
frame.setVisible(true);

JOGL Frame Example

In this example, we will create a simple JOGL frame using AWT.

AWTFrame.java

package com.javatpoint.jogl;
import java.awt.Frame;
import javax.media.opengl.*;
import javax.media.opengl.awt.GLCanvas;

public class AWTFrame implements GLEventListener {

   @Override
	public void init(GLAutoDrawable obj) {
	
	   }
	
   @Override
public void display(GLAutoDrawable obj) {

   }

   @Override
public void reshape(GLAutoDrawable obj1, int obj2, int obj3, int obj4, int obj5) {

   }
	
   @Override
public void dispose(GLAutoDrawable obj) {

   }

public static void main(String[] args) {


final GLProfile gp = GLProfile.get(GLProfile.GL4);
GLCapabilities cap = new GLCapabilities(gp);


final GLCanvas gc = new GLCanvas(cap);
AWTFrame af = new AWTFrame();
gc.addGLEventListener(af);        
gc.setSize(350, 350);

      //Now creating a frame using Frame class of AWT
final Frame frame = new Frame ("AWT Frame");

frame.add(gc);
frame.setSize( 500, 400 );
frame.setVisible(true);
   }
	
}

Output:
