LWJGL VS referencesource

Compare LWJGL vs referencesource and see what are their differences.

LWJGL

LWJGL is a Java library that enables cross-platform access to popular native APIs useful in the development of graphics (OpenGL, Vulkan, bgfx), audio (OpenAL, Opus), parallel computing (OpenCL, CUDA) and XR (OpenVR, LibOVR, OpenXR) applications. (by LWJGL)

  • Library of Java that Minecraft Uses
    1 project | /r/Minecraft | 7 Apr 2023
    Java Edition uses a number of third party libraries but the core game library is Light Weight Java Game Library, LWJGL.
  • Wayland support
    2 projects | /r/TLAUNCHER | 27 Mar 2023
    Minecraft uses LWGL under the hood, which does support Wayland as of version 3 if it is configured to use EGL instead of GLX. (see https://github.com/LWJGL/lwjgl3/issues/748) Version 2 of LWGL does not support Wayland as it relies on xrandr, which is only available on X (see https://github.com/LWJGL/lwjgl/issues/118).

    But to go deeper to .NET/CLR architecture is important too. Try to understand how it works inside. Use the source, Luke! https://source.dot.net/ https://referencesource.microsoft.com/ This source code vaults is not completed then try JetBrains dotPeek tool to look at any assembly source code.

  • Why your F# evangelism isn't working

    List is an IList/IReadOnlyList; these interfaces do nothing that couldn't be done right inside the file itself.

    https://referencesource.microsoft.com/#mscorlib/system/colle...

    https://referencesource.microsoft.com/#mscorlib/system/colle...

    Instead we have to go diving through the IList, which implements ICollection, which implements IEnumerable, which implements IEnumerable (again). Just because each interface is composed of another interface, doesn't mean you aren't using inheritance. You are effectively creating a custom inheritance tree through willy-nilly composition.

    It is gratuitous to make this chain so deep, when the underlying code is just a handful of lines.

    Assuming if you are new to C# - start coding! And start reading https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/csharp/tour-of-csha...

    If you are not new to C#, start building an application end-to-end/a classic n-tier application, right from using a database, Entity Framework, WebAPI, DTO, AutoMapper, and a front-end (your choice - Angular/React/Vue with TypeScript or better yet - Blazor).

    You will not only understand & use dependency injection, reflection, LINQ, multi-threaded programming, generic programming, source-code generation, unit-testing - and much much more in a practical/real-world usage.

    Peruse https://referencesource.microsoft.com/ once in a while.

    Follow various team members of .NET Framework, C# team and the like on various social-media. https://mobile.twitter.com/i/lists/120961876

    I am sure there will be who agree / disagree with the above approach and will provide more viewpoints for you to consider.

    Enjoy - and strap yourself for an amazing journey or roller-coaster ride, however you want to call it!
