OGL provides both a runtime and a development environment for applications using the OpenGL 3D graphical interface. In HP-UX 11i Version 1.5 (B.11.20),

  • there is no support for local graphics devices, only remote graphics via network protocols will be available.

  • native code Itanium-based libraries and executables will be provided

  • no support for threads

No 3D graphics hardware will be available on any HP-UX Itanium-based systems in the near future. Therefore device drivers that are normally included in the OGL product will be omitted. Applications will be limited to displaying 3D graphics remotely, over the network, to systems that have graphics capability.

OGL Compatibility

No changes to source code will be necessary in applications. IPF native code applications compiled on HP-UX 11i Version 1.5 (B.11.20) will need to be recompiled in a subsequent release. When PA libraries and executables are released, OGL applications currently running on HP-UX PA systems will run on HP-UX Itanium-based systems without any modifications.
