PyOpenGL 1.5.7 Release Notes, 2001-08-01


PyOpenGL 1.5.7 is the last release of what is
called the "1.5 branch" of PyOpenGL.  This
branch was based on the 1.5.5 release by David
Ascher.

The 1.5.6 release was the first release
by the PyOpenGL SourceForge team and was mostly
concerned with bug fixing and migrating the
build system to the Distutils package.

The 1.5.7 release is a bug fix release
which is intended to close off development
on the 1.5 branch in preparation for the
release of the SWIG based 2.0 branch.

Although there may be more minor bug fix
releases of the 1.5 branch in the future, it
is anticipated that no new features will be added
to this branch, i.e. all new development is
focused on the 2.0 branch.

_______________________________________

1.5.7: August 1, 2001
  - fixed glGenTextures to support multiple textures
  - added workaround for GL 1.1 systems that don't export
    the right symbols like glPolygonOffsetEXT, etc.
  - moved RPM package to "Development/Languages/Python"
    to match the location of PyOpenGL 2.

1.5.6: January 6, 2001
  - added Distutils Support and Portability
  - added Python 2.0+ Support
  - completed some array support
  - added glSelectWithCallback
  - TOGL is now registered using deep dark TCL magic
    from a position within the PyOpenGL directory tree
  - fixed SGI crashes on non-double-buffered demos eliminated

1.5.4: Jan 5, 1998
  - fixed the WISE script to 
    * work with 1.5.2b1 (and hopefully 1.5X)
      (ignore the warnings about Python C API version numbers)
    * if Tk/Tcl can't be found, put the Togl-related files in a
      Togl directory for installation by hand by the user
  - added a demo from srenner@lycosmail.com

1.5.3: August 5, 1998
  - fixed the WISE script to do the right thing pathwise.
  - incorporated Keith Junius' fixes to the install scripts on Unix to
    make building of Togl hopefully trivial
  - now include Togl-1.5b3 in the source tree.

1.5.2: August 3, 1998
  - fixed the Tk()/_default_root bug in Tk/__init__.py
  - added more text to the AAA_README file

  - fixed a couple of the demos in Demo/tom
  - removed delaunay and Demo/tom/detest.py
  - added LICENSE for Debian packaging req't.
  - fixed bug in GL/__init__.py [Gregor Hoffleit]

    standard tostring/fromstring representation).

1.5.1: July 2, 1998
  - incorporated a couple of things from Michel Sanner
  - reorged my own source tree, which should make updates easiers.
  - incorporated Mark Hammond's wgl module, which makes OpenGL work with
    Pythonwin! (see the demo in his pythonwin/pywin/demo/openGLdemo.py)
  - automatic scripts for make and install on unix (not tested extensively).
  - last but not least: updated installer to accept Python 1.5.1 and 1.5.0
    and 1.5.x. (not tested extensively).
