# To subscribers of the xforms list from Luis Miguel de la Cruz <lmd@deneb.labvis.unam.mx> :

Hello,

I'm a new user of XForms. I'm trying to build a graphic system to
visualize meshes and numerical dates on them. The connection of XForms and
C++ is not a problem, a get an example from the XForms homepage, the
problem exist when I try to add an OpenGL canvas. The example gl.c that is
included in the DEMOS is not clear(at least for me). There is a function
called idle_cb, is it a necessary function to draw something?. I tried to
put this function as a method of a class but I'd like avoid this function,
or change its name, but I wasn't able to do that. Someone in the list have
done an application using C++ and OpenGL with XForms?, if so, could you
give some hints and advises?.

Thank you very much
