2 * @defgroup GLView GLView

4 *
5 * A GLView widget allows for simple GL rendering in elementary environment.
6 * GLView hides all the complicated evas_gl details so that the user only
7 * has to deal with registering a few callback functions for rendering
8 * to a surface using OpenGL APIs.
9 *
10 * Below is an illustrative example of how to use GLView and and OpenGL
11 * to render in elementary environment.
