OpenTK 1.1 released

 

OpenTK, a low level C# binding for the OpenGL, OpenAL and OpenCL has just hit a milestone 1.1 release.  It’s a project used behind the scenes by a number ofimage projects such as MonoGame.  Funny enough, they keep a low enough profile everyone always thinks they are dead!  Fortunately for .NET loving OpenGL fans, they are not.

 

 

This release brings a number of new goodies, including:

1. support for OpenGL 4.4 and OpenGL ES 3.0
2. strongly-typed enums for OpenGL ES 2.0 and 3.0
3. new, faster OpenGL bindings based on hand-optimized IL
4. a new SDL2 backend for improved platform compatibility
5. new Joystick and GamePad APIs under OpenTK.Input
6. improved startup time and reduced memory consumption
7. inline documentation for all OpenGL and OpenGL ES core functions
8. a greatly expanded math library
9. numerous bugfixes for Mac OS X, Windows 8 and Linux
10. ANGLE support for Windows systems without OpenGL drivers
11. support for Retina / high-DPI monitors
12. monolinker can now be used to reduce the size of OpenTK.dll
13. precompiled binaries for optional dependencies (OpenAL, SDL2, monolinker)
