First let me state my overall goal: I'm trying to implement object picking.
I tried the glRenderMode(GL2.GL_SELECT) ... glu.gluPickMatrix route but this did not work and I realised that was deprecated.
I am now trying to implement 'pick by rendering each object in individual color'.
I'm trying to use my existing rendering infrastructure so that I render twice, once for display and once for picking.
To be able to prevent the picking colors from being displayed I tried to do manual buffer swapping.
So I call
setAutoSwapBufferMode(false);
in my GLPanel constructor
and
drawable.swapBuffers();
at the end of my GLEventListener display method.
I've not yet implemented the pick rendering, but to test if I can control the buffering I left out the swapBuffers() assuming that no rendering would be visible but it seems to render just fine and I see no difference if I have the swap or not.
Am I doing something wrong or am I misinterpreting this test result?
