Hello everyone, I have been trying out the tutorials on https://sites.google.com/site/justinscsstuff/jogl-tutorial-2  and I have opted for the NEWT approach after seeing the comparison in the wiki regarding the performance. The AWT example SimpleScene provided work fine and it can be debugged. Trying the NEWT SimpleScene class thow actualy is giving a problem. The program compiles fine, the threads are started and then it all shuts down, while in the AWT version the window stays up until I close it.
