OpenGL compatibility vs core context
Description
An
OpenGL rendering context can be setup as a:
In this module, we will only be writing OpenGL 4.0 applications using a core context. This is a module on modern OpenGL programming.
[In modern OpenGL, there is no built-in lighting model, matrix stacks, easy to code immediate mode glBegin / glEnd functions, or camera functions (gluLookAt, gluPerspective, etc.). Quadrilateral and polygon primitives have been dropped, along with display lists, vertex arrays, the accumulation buffer, alpha test and more. Shader programming is required.]
- Compatibility context: All deprecated OpenGL functions still available. May run slower because of additional state variables that must be tracked.
- Core context: Deprecated OpenGL functions unavailable. Good for writing efficient code that does not use deprecated functions.
