Difference between GLX and WGL (API)

GLX vs. WGL (API)

GLX (initialism for "OpenGL Extension to the X Window System") is an extension to the X Window System core protocol providing an interface between OpenGL and the X Window System as well as extensions to OpenGL itself. WGL or Wiggle is an API between OpenGL and the windowing system interface of Windows.

Similarities between GLX and WGL (API)

GLX and WGL (API) have 8 things in common (in Unionpedia): Core OpenGL, EGL (API), MacOS, Microsoft Windows, OpenGL, OpenGL Utility Toolkit, Wayland (display server protocol), X Window System.

Core OpenGL

Core OpenGL, or CGL, is Apple Inc.'s Macintosh Quartz windowing system interface to the OS X implementation of the OpenGL specification.

Wayland (display server protocol)

Wayland is a computer protocol that specifies the communication between a display server (called a Wayland compositor) and its clients, as well as a reference implementation of the protocol in the C programming language.
