+ \page qtopengl-index.html
+ \title Qt OpenGL
+ \brief The QtOpenGL module offers classes that make it easy to
+ use OpenGL in Qt applications.
+
+ \warning Apart from the \l{QGLWidget} class, this module should not be used
+ anymore for new code. Please use the corresponding OpenGL classes in
+ \l{Qt Gui}.
+
+ OpenGL is a standard API for rendering 3D graphics. OpenGL only
+ deals with 3D rendering and provides little or no support for GUI
+ programming issues. The user interface for an OpenGL application
+ must be created with another toolkit, such as Cocoa on the Mac OS X
+ platform, Microsoft Foundation Classes (MFC) under Windows, or Qt
+ on both platforms.
+
+ \note OpenGL is a trademark of Silicon Graphics, Inc. in
+ the United States and other countries.
+
+ The Qt OpenGL module makes it easy to use OpenGL in Qt applications.
+ It provides an OpenGL widget class that can be used just like any
+ other Qt widget, except that it opens an OpenGL display buffer where
+ you can use the OpenGL API to render the contents.
+
+ To include the definitions of the module's classes, use the
+ following directive:
+
+ \snippet code/doc_src_qtopengl.cpp 0
+
+ To link against the module, add this line to your \l qmake \c
+ .pro file:
+
+ \snippet code/doc_src_qtopengl.pro 1
+
+ The Qt OpenGL module is implemented as a platform-independent Qt/C++
+ wrapper around the platform-dependent GLX (version 1.3 or later),
+ WGL, or AGL C APIs. Although the basic functionality provided is very
+ similar to Mark Kilgard's GLUT library, applications using the Qt
+ OpenGL module can take advantage of the whole Qt API for
+ non-OpenGL-specific GUI functionality.
+
+ The \l{Qt OpenGL C++ classes} page gives an overview over the available classes
+ int this module.
