    * (new feature) JOGL(https://jogl.dev.java.net/)
can be used
      as an OpenGL binding in addition to JunGL.
      JunOpenGLInterface is defined as an abstract class of the
      interfaces for both JunGL and JOGL.  JunOpenGLDrawable is
      an interface to represent a 3D drawable component.
      JOGLCanvas/JOGLJPanel/JunGLCanvas/JunGLJPanel are the
      classes which implement JunOpenGLDrawable.  You can choose
      one of them as a system default drawable from the launcher
      menu.
