Work completed 05/31 - 06/08

Currently working on a problem getting the wigwam applet to run on my local workstation.  The project compiles fine, but does not render from the locally built project in the browser.  Still trying to figure out why.

Reviewed information provided in prior developer's email regarding library references in the NetBeans project.  His libraries do not align with those in the publicly available folder on the svn site for CSDT.  That is, Clayton has  libraries including jogl.dll, jogl-cg.dll, and jogl-awt.dll, whereas the ones provided in the zip on the server are jogl.dll and gluegen-rt.dll.  Have researched the jogl-cg.dll and jogl-awt.dll on the internet.  Turned up a site that discusses installation of JOGL on a workstation that is focused on jogl-cg.dll, jogl.dll, and yet another file, jogl.jar.  The documentation is inconsistent with that provided in the zip on the svn server which focuses on the other three files listed above.  Based on this documentation, I have created a few introductory, elementary projects using jogl.jar, jogl.dll, and jogl-cg.dll on the local workstation.  However, I have not tried yet to see if this installation will work for the wigwam project.

Next step is to create an applet project (as opposed to a regular Java application) in NetBeans using JOGL and see if this renders properly in the browser.  If that works, then will try to render the wigwam project using this installation.  Otherwise, will be researching further...
