Before you can build a project that uses JOGL in your IDE or on the command line, you'll need to download and install the JOGL JAR files and native JARs or libraries (.dll/.so/.jnilib files).
You have a choice of JOGL versions to download. The latest stable version is the safest, but lags behind in features. The latest automatic build contains all checked-in code, but may be failing some tests.
Downloading the latest stable version
Go to this page and download one of these files for each platform you're developing on:
- 32-bit Windows: jogamp-windows-i586.7z
- 64-bit Windows: jogamp-windows-amd64.7z
- 32/64-bit Mac OS X: jogamp-macosx-universal.7z
- 32-bit Linux: jogamp-linux-i586.7z
- 64-bit Linux: jogamp-linux-amd64.7z
- 32-bit Solaris: jogamp-solaris-i586.7z
- 64-bit Solaris: jogamp-solaris-amd64.7z
Downloading the latest automatic build
For the latest automatic build, we have to download gluegen and jogl separately.
First, go to this page and click on the most recent gluegen-b* directory. Then download one of these files for each platform you're developing on:
- 32-bit Windows: gluegen-2.0-bvvv-20yymmdd-windows-i586.7z
- 64-bit Windows: gluegen-2.0-bvvv-20yymmdd-windows-amd64.7z
- 32/64-bit Mac OS X: gluegen-2.0-bvvv-20yymmdd-macosx-universal.7z
- 32-bit Linux: gluegen-2.0-bvvv-20yymmdd-linux-i586.7z
- 64-bit Linux: gluegen-2.0-bvvv-20yymmdd-linux-amd64.7z
- 32-bit Solaris: gluegen-2.0-bvvv-20yymmdd-solaris-i586.7z
- 64-bit Solaris: gluegen-2.0-bvvv-20yymmdd-solaris-amd64.7z
Then, go back to this page and click on the most recent jogl-b* directory. Then download one of these files for each platform you're developing on:
- 32-bit Windows: jogl-2.0-bvvv-20yymmdd-windows-i586.7z
- 64-bit Windows: jogl-2.0-bvvv-20yymmdd-windows-amd64.7z
- 32/64-bit Mac OS X: jogl-2.0-bvvv-20yymmdd-macosx-universal.7z
- 32-bit Linux: jogl-2.0-bvvv-20yymmdd-linux-i586.7z
- 64-bit Linux: jogl-2.0-bvvv-20yymmdd-linux-amd64.7z
- 32-bit Solaris: jogl-2.0-bvvv-20yymmdd-solaris-i586.7z
- 64-bit Solaris: jogl-2.0-bvvv-20yymmdd-solaris-amd64.7z
Note that these automatic builds may not have passed all the regression tests. You can check the test results on the build server to make sure you're not downloading a broken build.
Native JARs vs. native libraries
JOGL uses native libraries to interface with each platform's OpenGL library. You can either download these native libraries wrapped up in JAR files (the "native JARs" option), or you can download them as separate .dll/.so/.jnilib files (the "native libraries" option).
When using native JARs, JOGL automatically unzips the native JAR files at startup into a temporary directory, then loads the resulting native libraries from there. When using native libraries, JOGL just loads them directly from where they sit, with no unzipping.
Using native JARs is usually easiest, since there are fewer files to manage and it allows different platforms' native libraries to coexist in the same directory. Only use the native libraries directly if you need fine control over native library file placement or if your app doesn't have permissions to create temporary directories.
Unzipping the files
Unzip all the downloaded files with 7zip. An unzipped file has this general directory structure:
<archive>/ <archive>/jar/ <archive>/lib/ <archive>/<module>-java-src.zip*
Now you may copy the required JARs out of each jar folder and the native libraries (if you're using them) out of each lib folder. For a full desktop installation using native JARs, here are the files you need. Note that the native JAR names are different for each platform, so you can use some or all of the native JARs together to create a multi-platform installation.
| 64-bit Windows | 64-bit Linux | 32/64-bit Mac |
|---|---|---|
| gluegen-rt.jar | gluegen-rt.jar | gluegen-rt.jar |
| jogl.all.jar | jogl.all.jar | jogl.all.jar |
| gluegen-java-src.zip | gluegen-java-src.zip | gluegen-java-src.zip |
| jogl-java-src.zip | jogl-java-src.zip | jogl-java-src.zip |
| gluegen-rt-natives-windows-amd64.jar | gluegen-rt-natives-linux-amd64.jar | gluegen-rt-natives-macosx-universal.jar |
| jogl-all-natives-windows-amd64.jar | jogl-all-natives-linux-amd64.jar | jogl-all-natives-macosx-universal.jar |
| 32-bit Windows | 32-bit Linux | |
|---|---|---|
| gluegen-rt.jar | gluegen-rt.jar | |
| jogl.all.jar | jogl.all.jar | |
| gluegen-java-src.zip | gluegen-java-src.zip | |
| jogl-java-src.zip | jogl-java-src.zip | |
| gluegen-rt-natives-windows-i586.jar | gluegen-rt-natives-linux-i586.jar | |
| jogl-all-natives-windows-i586.jar | jogl-all-natives-linux-i586.jar |
For a full desktop installation using native libraries, here are the files you need. Note that the native libraries have the same names for 32-bit and 64-bit platforms, so 32-bit and 64-bit platforms can't coexist in one installation.
| Windows | Linux | Mac |
|---|---|---|
| gluegen-rt.jar | gluegen-rt.jar | gluegen-rt.jar |
| jogl.all.jar | jogl.all.jar | jogl.all.jar |
| gluegen-java-src.zip | gluegen-java-src.zip | gluegen-java-src.zip |
| jogl-java-src.zip | jogl-java-src.zip | jogl-java-src.zip |
| gluegen-rt.dll | libgluegen-rt.so | libgluegen-rt.jnilib |
| jogl_desktop.dll | libjogl_desktop.so | libjogl_desktop.jnilib |
| nativewindow_awt.dll | libnativewindow_awt.so | libnativewindow_awt.jnilib |
| nativewindow_win32.dll | libnativewindow_x11.so | libnativewindow_macosx.jnilib |
| newt.dll | libnewt.so | libnewt.jnilib |
More information
JogAmp follows a release scheme, which describes the following locations to download the 7z archives from:
JOGL Deployment describes the content of the 7z archive files.
These installations contain all of JOGL. If you want to remove parts you don't use, see JOGL Deployment for more information.
