  2. The OpenGL Extension Wrangler Library (GLEW) is a cross-platform
  3. open-source C/C++ extension loading library. GLEW provides efficient
  4. run-time mechanisms for determining which OpenGL extensions are
  5. supported on the target platform. OpenGL core and extension
  6. functionality is exposed in a single header file. GLEW has been
  7. tested on a variety of operating systems, including Windows, Linux,
  8. Mac OS X, FreeBSD, Irix, and Solaris.
