ObjectGL is a free open source .NET library, based on OpenTK, that provides access to OpenGL functions in object-oriented manner, not the painful and error-prone 'bind-to-edit' model.

While modern OpenGL is designed in terms of objects, the API itself is designed with the mindset of reusing existing functions as much as possible. This creates a counter-intuitive API with functions that depend heavily on implicit parameters and at the same time change implicit parameters for some other functions.

ObjectGL is created to provide access to the OpenGL in the same terms in which it is designed - in terms of vertex array objects, buffer objects, sampler objects and so on, while managing the 'binding of handles to targets' behind the scenes and as effectively as possible.

The project is still under development, but already supports many of the OpenGL capabilities including, but not limited to

- Geometry shaders and transform feedback (using TransformFeedback objects)
- Tesselation shaders
- Rendering to all possible kinds of textures (including rendering to layered images)
- Instancing

To learn how ObjectGL maps onto OpenGL object model, please refer to the 'Scenes' within ObjectGL.Tester project. Those are concise demonstrations of how to use ObjectGL to access specific OpenGL features.
