The relevant Apple dev doc is here:

Essentially it involves setting flags on the GL pixel format. Then you can
receive a callback from the OS either via NSOpenGLView or an old C style
callback which tells you that the active
I believe the tricky part is not setting the magic flag in your Info.plist
file but rather handling the GL context changes on the fly. It
requires/would require some code in the Mac GL specific part of JavaFX.
Otherwise if you force it to integrated then some other app causes a switch
to discrete,
Yes, I appreciate that the magic flag in the Info.plist would just be a
signal to do something tricky.
I tried setting -Dprism.order=sw in the Info.plist, thinking that would
trick things into not requiring the discrete GPU, but all that happened
when I did that was that I ended up with a
I'm not an expert on how to use OpenGL on Mac to avoid the discrete
grahpics, but I do know that the retina support in the SW pipeline on
the Mac should be addressed soon in 8u60 as a result of fixing RT-27960.
The fix has been pushed to 8u-dev (and 9-dev) and is awaiting a sync
into the
