<p>
|
||||
Mesa can be downloaded from the
|
||||
<a href="http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/mesa3d" target="_parent">
|
||||
SourceForge download area</A>.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Since version 2.3, Mesa is distributed in two pieces: main library code
|
||||
and demos. If you're upgrading from a previous version of Mesa or you're not
|
||||
interested in the demos you can just download the core Mesa archive file.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Mesa is available in at least three archive formats:
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<pre>
|
||||
1. GNU zip/tar
|
||||
|
||||
Download MesaLib-X.Y.tar.gz and optionally MesaDemos-X.Y.tar.gz
|
||||
Unpack with:
|
||||
gzcat MesaLib-X.Y.tar.gz | tar xf -
|
||||
gzcat MesaDemos-X.Y.tar.gz | tar xf -
|
||||
or
|
||||
gunzip MesaLib-X.Y.tar.gz ; tar xf MesaLib-X.Y.tar
|
||||
gunzip MesaDemos-X.Y.tar.gz ; tar xf MesaLib-X.Y.tar
|
||||
or
|
||||
tar zxf MesaLib-X.Y.tar.gz
|
||||
tar zxf MesaDemos-X.Y.tar.gz
|
||||
|
||||
If you don't have gzcat try zcat instead.
|
||||
|
||||
2. Unix compressed/tar
|
||||
|
||||
Download MesaLib-X.Y.tar.Z and optionally MesaDemos-X.Y.tar.Z
|
||||
Unpack with:
|
||||
zcat MesaLib-X.Y.tar.Z | tar xf -
|
||||
zcat MesaDemos-X.Y.tar.Z | tar xf -
|
||||
|
||||
3. ZIP format
|
||||
|
||||
Download MesaLib-X.Y.zip and optionally MesaDemos-X.Y.zip
|
||||
Unpack with:
|
||||
unzip MesaLib-X.Y.zip
|
||||
unzip MesaDemos-X.Y.zip
|
||||
</pre>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
After unpacking you'll have these directories (and more):
|
||||

|
||||
docs/ - documentation
|
||||
util/ - handly utility functions
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
and if you downloaded and unpacked the demos:
|
||||
|
||||
src-glut/ - source code for GLUT toolkit
|
||||
demos/ - GLUT demos
|
||||
xdemos/ - X11 and SVGA demo programs
|
||||
samples/ - sample OpenGL programs from SGI
|
||||
book/ - example programs from the OpenGL Programming Guide,
|
||||

GLUT is built automatically on systems which support it.

The GLUT tests, demos, examples, etc are not included, just the main library.
