hi,
this is possible. There are several openGL Java APIs. for example Magician. I've
worked with some time ago. This is a full featured openGL API, but does not supply any
scenegraph facility as Java3D does (IMHO no openGL does this). You have to
implement that by yourself.
JNI is mostly a very time consumpting thing. So don't be surprised when your applet
will
not run as fast as you expect.
You will find Magician at:
http://www.arcana.co.uk/products/magician
Magician currently supports Java-2 on Windows 95/98/NT/ME/2000, Linux/x86,
Linux/PPC, Irix, SPARC/Solaris, Intel/Solaris, AIX, OS/2, MacOS and MacOS X.
Note: until 30th April 2001, Magician can be downloaded.
