Example

package main

import (
	"github.com/vbsw/glut"
)

func main() {
	glut.Init()
	glut.InitDisplayMode(glut.SINGLE | glut.RGBA)
	glut.InitWindowSize(640, 480)
	glut.CreateWindow("Testing GLUT binding for Go");
	glut.ReshapeFunc(reshape)
	glut.DisplayFunc(display)
	glut.KeyboardFunc(keyboard)
	glut.MainLoop()
}

func reshape(width, height int) {
	println("reshape")
}

func display() {
	println("display")
}

func keyboard(key uint8, x, y int) {
	if key==27 { // escape
		glut.DestroyWindow(glut.GetWindow())
	} else {
		if (glut.GetModifiers() & glut.ACTIVE_CTRL) > 0 {
			println("key pressed: ctrl +", key)
		} else {
			println("key pressed:", key)
		}
	}
}

Installation

Linux

Install the programming language Go and the source code management system Git. You also need GCC, the C standard library development package and the GLUT development package. Install them for example with

    $ sudo apt-get install git gcc libc6-dev freeglut3-dev

Get this project with

$ go get github.com/vbsw/glut

or update your local copy with

$ go get -u github.com/vbsw/glut

or compile it with

$ go install github.com/vbsw/glut

Windows

Install the programming language Go. Install Git.

Get this project with (run this preferably from the Git Bash)

$ go get github.com/vbsw/glut

or update your local copy with

$ go get -u github.com/vbsw/glut

Cgo needs another compiler to compile c files. On a 64 bit system a 64 bit compiler is needed. I tried it with the gcc. MinGW provides only 32 bit binaries. So go to http://tdm-gcc.tdragon.net to download 64 bit gcc binaries. Install it.

Then download freeglut from http://www.transmissionzero.co.uk/software/freeglut-devel/ and unpack it for example to

C:/Users/Alice/Downloads/freeglut

Then open the file github.com/vbsw/glut/glut.go and change the first line from

// #cgo LDFLAGS: -lGL -lGLU -lglut
// #include <stdlib.h>
// #include <GL/glut.h>
// #include "gofunctions.h"

to

// #cgo CFLAGS: -IC:/Users/Alice/Downloads/freeglut/include
// #cgo LDFLAGS: -LC:/Users/Alice/Downloads/freeglut/bin/x64 -l:freeglut.dll
// #include <stdlib.h>
// #include <GL/glut.h>
// #include "gofunctions.h"

To compile run

$ go install github.com/vbsw/glut
