Description : Library for selecting OpenGL API and window system at runtime
Waffle is a cross-platform C library that allows one to defer
selection of OpenGL API and window system until runtime. For example,
on Linux, Waffle enables an application to select X11/EGL with an
OpenGL 3.3 core profile, Wayland with OpenGL ES2, and other window
system / API combinations.
Waffle simplifies the effort requirred todevelop a cross-platform
OpenGL application. Instead of writing platform-specific code against
various OpenGL window-system integration layers, (GLX, WGL, CGL,
etc.), an application can be coded once with the Waffle interfaces and
run against any of these window system.
