OpenGL for Solaris is a direct descendant of Silicon Graphics' IRIS Graphics Library (IRIS GL). OpenGL provides a wide range of graphics features for hardware, window and operating system independence. OpenGL gives software developers 3-D graphic capabilities for rendering simple geometrics to complex NURB curved surfaces. Features include viewing and modeling transformation, hidden surface removal, lighting and shading, alpha-bending, anti-aliasing, atmospheric effects and texture-mapping of geometric objects. Other features include display list or immediate mode, feedback and selection, accumulation buffer, true or pseudo color, and stencil planes. OpenGL for Solaris is optimized for the SPARC architecture and Sun's accelerated frame buffers.
