Hi,

I created a patch for adding a support for Vertex Arrays in cl-opengl. It works great with the "aapoly" demo from the Red Book.

The main problem was to handle the vertex/color/etc.. arrays. The respective OpenGL functions do not copy them when called. Instead, they register their location and then reference them when functions like glDrawArray are called. That's why it was not convenient to use macros like (with-foreign-object ...) and I had to create a special class for managing these arrays.

Some parts of functionality like "glInterleavedArrays" is not implemented. That's because it is not clear for me how should it look like in Lisp. Actually, in such cases it does not seem to be a good idea to support this function at all.

Please let me know what is the best way to send you the patch. I will attach it to this email, but I am 99% sure it will be corrupted during transmission.

Regards, Denys
