GLUT Open Inventor users,
BUILD INSTRUCTIONS
===================
To enable building of the GLUT Open Inventor examples (assuming
an Silicon Graphics workstation running IRIX), do the following:
1) Make sure you have the Open Inventor development (inventor_dev)
and the C++ development (c++_dev) products installed.
2) Run "mkmkfiles.sgi" in this directory.
3) Create a file in this directory called Inventor.mk with
the following line:
INVENTOR = inventor
4) Execute "make" in this directory.
NOTES
======
o The GLUT Open Inventor examples can be found in the
progs/inventor subdirectory.
o To build the progs/inventor subdirectory if you use Imakefiles,
try:
cd progs
make SUBDIRS=inventor Makefiles
cd inventor
make
Since I'm not familiar with how Open Inventor is installed on
non-Silicon Graphics machines, you may have to adapt the Inventor
related lines in Glut.cf to your system's Open Inventor
installation.
o Using the Imakefile requires an X11R6-based set of
/usr/lib/X11/config rules that support C++.
o When you use Open Inventor with GLUT, you can access all
the non-window system based features of Inventor like the scene
graph, etc. Specifically, you won't be able to use the
SoOffscreenRenderer or SoXt based classes.
o Link with -lInventor instead of -lInventorXt to make sure
you only get the non-window system based features of Inventor.
o See Chapter 17 "Using Inventor with OpenGL" in the Inventor
Mentor (Addison-Wesley, ISBN 0-201-62495-8) for a discussion about
using Open Inventor outside the context of Open Invetor's Xt
widget frame work.
