ABSTRACT:
One embodiment of the present invention provides a system that facilitates redirecting the output of direct rendering graphics calls in a 3D window system. The system interposes a redirection library between an application and a direct rendering library in the 3D window system. This redirection library is a 3D foundation library that intercepts direct rendering calls. The redirection library routes the direct rendering calls to a display server. The display server renders the direct rendering calls into texture rather than rendering the direct rendering calls into a window on a screen of a display device. The system then displays the texture on a 3D shape through the display device.
