Hi guys,

I wrote a tutorial that will guide a total newbie through creating a complete Eclipse Rich Client Platform (RCP) application that shows a JOGL demo in a window. It's on my blog at http://wadeawalker.wordpress.com/2010/10/09/tutorial-a-cross-platform-workbench-program-using-java-opengl-and-eclipse/.

This tutorial project is a suitable foundation for many kinds of cross-platform non-game graphical applications (3-D design and animation, CAD, EDA, etc.).

I work at a microprocessor company where we use JOGL and Eclipse RCP to write apps that let our engineers create and edit hardware designs. I thought I'd try to give back to the community a bit by posting some tutorials on topics that would have helped me when I was starting out. I'll create more tutorials as I come across good topics.

Huge thanks to Michael and Sven for keeping JOGL alive!
