Struct Context

pub struct Context { /* private fields */ }

Represents an OpenGL context.

A Context is normally associated with a single Window, however Contexts can be shared between multiple windows.

Example

let context = glutin::ContextBuilder::new()
    .with_vsync(true)
    .with_multisampling(8)
    .with_shared_lists(some_gl_window.context());
