The way +OpenGL and WGL extensions are implemented in Windows require the creation of +an intermediary OpenGL context (and usually also intermediary window) to obtain +access to the extension functions. + +wglarb hides the nasty details behind a initialization-less API. Just call +`wglext_ChoosePixelFormatARB` and `wglext_CreateContextAttribsARB`. Initialization +of the intermediary window and OpenGL context happen on demand as needed. + +**Important Notice:** +*At the moment only ChoosePixelFormatARB and CreateContextAttribsARB are covered.* +Further wgl…ARB functions are yet subject for inclusion. |
