Where is OpenGL on OSX?

Name: Anonymous 2013-02-19 8:46

Trying to output some graphics and it says ld: library not found for -lglut

doing sudo port install glut gives Error: glut has been replaced by mesa; please install mesa instead.

It is the fucking 2013 and OpenGL still doesnt work out of the box. Why in the name of fuck they can't provide a working environment?

A single-level store architecture (such as the System/38) has no context switches. There's a system mode flag that blocks certain instructions, but the memory space is identical for everything on the system (even devices). The idea is that if a process can reach an area of memory, then it can access that area. The pointer itself contains the read/write/execute permissions. Memory is tagged so altering a pointer without using specific bounds-checked instructions invalidates it. System/38 had the scheduler and task management built into the hardware. The microcode was made up of multiple tasks, just like the threads of a user or OS process. It was extremely ahead of its time.
