   This is possible right ?
  It''s totally ok to load an image , BMP, the way i know how to in c++ and then send it to gluBuild2DMipmaps () ... i''m using java.. cuz the class requires it. Since i''m at work i can''t use too much the net "Google" .. So i wanted to know where i could find the simplest example of Java and Ogl... like.. setting up the screen and all that.. thx Big time.. -Leo 
  *mouths drops open*your workplace bans GOOGLE!?!You must sacrifice your Sysadmin to the Google Gods.  For the offense of banning, death is the punishment. I suggest beheading. ;  You can post on message boards, but you can''t use Google?  Riiiiiiiight. ;quote:Original post by CodeMunkie  You can post on message boards, but you can''t use Google?

I can google.. but i "can''t" cuz people would SEE me actually searching since it take a big of time.. while posting is just 1 min.. ;quote:Original post by Metal Typhoon  I can google.. but i "can''t" cuz people would SEE me actually searching since it take a big of time.. while posting is just 1 min..  I''m going to go with "lazy and trying not to show it" on this one.In any case, Java has image loader stuff, but I''m not entirely sure you can get the raw data, I''ve never tried. You''d be fine just loading it by hand--just be aware of endian type things that you won''t be shielded from in terms of portability. ;  No man.. i''m not lazy.. it''s just that people can''t see me using the net TOO LONG for other things.. since googling would take me a bit of time to find it then i could get in trouble.. and to post here while i''m at work what i do is.. run notepad.. type everything and copy past real quick... but notepad is "hidden" so i type without seen what i type... but i was hoping u guys coulda help so when i got home i would just look at links and not waist time googling.. but whatever.. i got home now.. Nice try at helping ....
