installing OpenGL

3. verify the product

Here are three methods for determining if you have correctly installed OpenGL on your system.

Run the program

/opt/graphics/OpenGL/demos/verify_install

If OpenGL has been correctly installed on your system, running verify_install will cause a window containing a 3D rendering of the text “OpenGL” to open on your monitor.

Run any of the demos located in the directory:

/opt/graphics/OpenGL/examples

This directory is installed with the OPENGL-EXAMPLEfileset.

Compile, link and run one of your existing OpenGL programs.

The README file in the examples directory contains instructions on how to set up and run the examples.

Example programs from the OpenGL Programming Guide are installed in the directory:

/opt/graphics/OpenGL/contrib/glut_samples

which also contains a README file.
