NAME
     waffle - a library for selecting an OpenGL API and window system at runtime

SYNOPSIS
     #include <waffle.h>

     Link with -lwaffle-1.

DESCRIPTION
     Waffle is a cross-platform library that allows one to defer selection of an
     OpenGL  API and of window system until runtime. For example, on Linux, Waf-
     fle enables an application to select X11/EGL with an OpenGL 3.3  core  pro-
     file, Wayland with OpenGL ES2, and other window system / API combinations.

     Waffle's  immediate  goal	is  to	enable	Piglit[1], Mesa[2]'s OpenGL test
     suite, to test multiple OpenGL flavors in a cross-platform way, and to  al-
     low each Piglit test to choose its OpenGL API and window system at runtime.
     A future goal is to enable the ability to record, with another tool such as
     APITrace[3],  an application's OpenGL calls on one operating system or win-
     dow system, and then replay that trace on a different system.

EXAMPLES
     Your distribution should have installed example  source  code  that  demon-
     strates how to use waffle at /usr/share/doc/waffle-${version}/examples. You
     can also find examples[5] in Waffle's source repository.
