Mesa is a 3-D graphics library with an API which is very similar to
|
|
that of OpenGL*
|
|
To the extent that Mesa utilizes the OpenGL command syntax or state
|
|
machine, it is being used with authorization from Silicon Graphics,
|
|
Inc.(SGI). However, the author does not possess an OpenGL license
|
|
from SGI, and makes no claim that Mesa is in any way a compatible
|
|
replacement for OpenGL or associated with SGI. Those who want a
|
|
licensed implementation of OpenGL should contact a licensed
|
|
vendor.
|
|
|
|
Please do not refer to the library as MesaGL (for legal
|
|
reasons). It's just Mesa or The Mesa 3-D graphics
|
|
library
|
|
|
|
* OpenGL is a trademark of Silicon Graphics Incorporated.
