-                         Mesa / BeOS Information
-
-
-
-* Introduction
-
-Brian Paul added in Mesa 3.1 a driver for BeOS R4.5 operating system.
-This driver implements a clone of the BGLView class.  This class,
-derived from BView, allows OpenGL rendering into any BeOS window.  His
-driver was updated in Mesa 4.1 and again in version 6.1 by Philippe
-Houdoin, who's maintaining this driver since.
-
-Any application which uses the BGLView should be able to use Mesa
-instead of Be's OpenGL without changing any code.
-
-Since Be's OpenGL implementation (as of R5) is basically just the
-SGI sample implementation, it's pretty slow.  You'll see that Mesa
-is considerably faster.
-
-
-* Source Code
-
-The source code for the driver is in src/mesa/drivers/beos/ directory.
-It's not 100% finished at this time but many GLUT-based demos are
-working.  No optimizations have been made at this time.
-
-
-* Compiling
-
-Since Mesa 6.x, it can be build under BeOS with both the R5 builtin gcc version
-or more recent gcc versions available for BeOS, like this gcc version 2.95.3 for BeOS 
-you can find at http://www.bebits.com/app/2157.
-Anyway, keep in mind that to take full advantage of Mesa x86 optimizations, you better
-want to use gcc 2.95.3 or sooner versions...
-
-To build Mesa-powered BeOS libGL.so version, open an Terminal window,
-move to Mesa root folder and type this command:
-
-$ make beos
-
-Note that the "beos" argument is only needed the first time to setup build config.
-Next times, typing "make" will be enough.
-
-When it finishes the Mesa based libGL.so library for
-BeOS will be in the lib/ directory, along libglut.so library.
-Several demo/test programs should have been build too under progs/* folders.
-If it stop when building one of the progs/* programs, you may want to ignore it
-and force make to move on next target by adding the -k make option:
-
-$ cd progs
-$ make -k
-
-To install it as Be's default libGL.so replacement, put it in your 
-/boot/home/config/lib/ directory. All your GL/GLUT apps will use 
-the Mesa based then. 
-
-By default, it build a non-debug version library.
-The x86 (MMX, SSE and 3DNOW) optimizations are also supported for x86 target.
-For PowerPC BeOS flavor, sorry, Mesa don't have ppc (Altivec) optimizations
-yet.
-
-To build a DEBUG version, type instead this :
-
-$ DEBUG=1 make
-
-
-* Example Programs
-
-Look under progs/beos/ for some BGLView-based programs.
-You should find under progs/samples and progs/redbook directories GLUT-based programs too.
-They all should have been compiled along with the Mesa library.
-
-
-* GLUT
-
-A beta version of GLUT 3.7 port for BeOS, made by Jake Hamby, can be found at 
-http://anobject.com/jehamby/Code/Glut-3.7-x86.zip.
-This is the version currently included in Mesa source code, and
-build in lib/libglut.so.
- 
-A previous 3.5 version of this GLUT BeOS port used to be available at
-http://home.beoscentral.com/jehamby/Glut-3.5-x86.zip.
-
-They're special versions of GLUT for the BeOS platform.  I don't
-believe Mark Kilgard's normal GLUT distribution includes BeOS
-support.
-
-
-* Special Features
-
-Mesa's implementation of the BGLView class has an extra member
-function:  CopySubBufferMESA().  It basically works like SwapBuffers()
-but it only copies a sub region from the back buffer to the front
-buffer.  This is a useful optimization for some applications.
-If you use this method in your code be sure that you check at runtime
-that you're actually using Mesa (with glGetString) so you don't
-cause a fatal error when running with Be's OpenGL.
-
-
-* Work Left To Do
-
-- BDirectWindow single buffering support is not implemented yet.
-- Color index mode is not implemented yet.
-- Reading pixels from the front buffer not implemented yet.
-- There is also a BGLScreen class in BeOS for full-screen OpenGL rendering.
-  This should also be implemented for Mesa.
-- Multiple renderers add-ons support, first step toward hardware acceleration
-  support.

-
-* Older BeOS Driver
-
-Mesa 2.6 had an earlier BeOS driver.  It was based on Mesa's Off-screen
-rendering interface, not BGLView.  If you're interested in the older
-driver you should get Mesa 2.6.
-
-
-* BeOS and Glide
-
-Mesa 3.0 supported the 3Dfx/Glide library on Beos.  Download Mesa 3.0
-if interested.  Ideally, the 3Dfx/Glide support should be updated to
-work with the new Mesa 3.1 BGLView implementation.
-
-The Glide library hasn't been updated for BeOS R4 and newer, to my knowledge,
-as of February, 1999.
